If the Force is can have a powerful influence over the weak minded the, PT Jedi must be the most mentally feeble beings in the cosmos to fall for Palpatine's obvious plan.

The story is weak but AOTC is the sagging middle of the soggy cardboard the PT is built on.

Jango tries to kill Padme to stop her from stopping the bill that unleashes his clones on the Galactic stage and he works as a personal body guard for the former Jedi that runs the Separatist movement that the army is conscripted to fight?

Even a fool can see there is a problem there.

Add supernatural powers to the mix and they are worse than fools.
