Having screened a whole lot of Hayden movies to help Frink out with his ROTS edit, I can attest that Christensen is a capable actor. One can only do so much with a dodgy script and indifferent direction.
I agree… honestly no one outside of Ewan and Ian Mcdiarmid managed to consistently do a good job delivering their lines.
In particular Natalie Portman was terrible, she wasn’t even trying anymore by ROTS
These films managed to make Samuel L Jackson boring as hell
