Our Verdict
Obviously the acting and visual FX aren’t a patch on the original, but there’s a whole lot of heart and creativity that’s gone into this remake. It brings a bit of playfulness and charming sense of humor to the Star Wars universe and it’s a surprisingly cohesive experience considering its limited budget. What’s most amazing is the amount of attention to detail that’s gone into all the cardboard recreations, with massive sets, guns and even R2D2 made out of the stuff!
