This is why Plinkett is needed.
I watched a lot of Plinkett’s reviews of the prequels. He made a few good points, but I disagreed with him a lot.
I also watched CinemaSins’s youtube videos on the Star Wars prequels. They were just as negative but were higher quality and funnier in my opinion.
Cinema Sins is made purely for entertainment and makes no argument as to what makes their nitpicks real problems. Plinkett actually reviews the films in depth and explains why the prequels fail as films, and then fail as Star Wars. He’s right on both counts. The Plinkett reviews are also designed for entertainment, but remove all of the “Plinkett’s a terrible person” comedy and you’ve got reasonable reviews of some crap films.
