many post are basically saying this. i dont rate movies by the actors. a good movie needs good actors, but acting quality is irrelvant (and can't be judged as well) without plot/character and philosophical development.

Also, I hated the depiction of black in this movie. If you read the article on Lucas, you'll see the movie's potential vs result. It reminded me of 300 after watching the history channel's expose: great potential in the story if it was made into a cartoon.
