    I think the dialogue and direction perfectly captured a shut-in teenage monk trying to flirt with the most attractive woman in the galaxy.

      there was a lot cut. the cut parts make it make sense and remove some of the cringe. its not a story that the Jedi would tell

        True. Episode 2 had a whole cut sequence where Padme presents Anakin to her family when the two go to Naboo, which adds lots of character to the pair and really drives home how Padme is just as interested in seeing things work as our young jedi.

      Same! I never understood the criticism. Yeah, all of his dialogues are awkward. But they perfectly fit his character.
