This movie gave the notion that it was to be a tie in for episodes 3 and 4, but the timelines didn't match. Too many crossovers when characters should have not been there and others in a different role. If you are a die hard fan, don't waste your time. I will say my 8 and 6 yr old boys loved it since they have gotten into it due to the Lego Star Wars game and watching the movies with me. The kids will like it, but as as adults, forget about it.
