Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones

The love story between Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala is pivotal plot point in the Star Wars prequels. In Attack of the Clones, the two fight their growing feelings for each other, realizing how complicated and unrealistic a relationship between them would be. So, their initial kiss isn’t what comes as a big surprise to viewers.

The surprise is the sheer lack of chemistry the two actors share on-screen and the awkwardness of their situation.  This romance is almost painful for many fans to watch, which is also a disappointing surprise for diehard lovers of the historic franchise.
