Have you run into Red Letter Media's reviews of the Star Wars Prequels by Mike Stoklasa (AKA, Mr. Harry S. Plinkett)?
They're pretty entertaining. He takes the movies apart but, not only that, he's awfully wise about it and, I have to think, intructive about what not to do when making a film. It takes some time to watch them, though...each one is a not-so-short film, itself. It's pretty clear that he cares about the original movies and what the prequels might have been. And that gives his reviews a real heart (especially for those of us old enough to have experienced the phenomenon that the originals were).
Before you go, know that the language is pretty rough and some of the content, I suppose, would get an R rating, if not a NC-17.
