Our Verdict
A high quality fan film with an interesting narrative and great production values. The acting and costume design are superb and the writing is full of wit. It’s nice to spend some time in the company of the Stormtroopers as they’re generally just reduced to generic cannon fodder in the movies. There are some great moments throughout too – such as when the Stormtrooper attempts to describe the Jedi he had a run in with much to the amusement of his colleagues.
