The opening drum beat where you see the Jedi Cruiser slowly moving in and things look pretty peaceful, then you see below the cruiser is just downright chaos.
Much like everything else in the prequel trilogy, that scene should have been awesome, but Lucas f'ed it up completely. Instead of seeing cool star fighters manoeuvring and dogfighting and shooting at each other, we got about five minutes worth of stupid buzz droid gags. What kind of idiot engineer would even design a weapon like that anyway? How about instead of trying to slowly tear Anakin's ship apart piece by piece, why didn't the buzz droid have a built-in warhead and explode when it attaches itself to a ship?
