I haven't seen any of Hayden's other movies,so i can only speak of his Star Wars career.
I didn't like him too much in Attack of the Clones,but i think he did alot better in Revenge of the Sith.
I've heard that Hayden is pretty good outside of Star Wars, and Natalie Portman has been good since
The Professional. When you put them together, however, bad things happen.
