No Magic

Rating: 4/10 (29 December 2019)

Disney should have been good at this, what people forget is Star Wars was a kids movie that apealled to adults ( like Toy Story ). The key to original was the humour and the wonder, none of this is in this film. The first 30 minutes seems to be a panic mismatch that was just boring, it gets better but not much. Why isn't the duo R2D2 and C3P0 in it more - you suspect it's cos the plot line was driven by Toy sales to sell that round one, whatever he is called. I watched the original with my Dad when I was ten, we both came out buzzing. Today I came out with my kid and he said - 'all that did was made me realise how good the original is were and I want to watch them again', I agreed. I hope this isn't the last one, one day somebody will come along and get it.
