Despite being a massive Star Wars fan, I have never watched the original Holiday Special because it's one of the worst reviewed films of all time and everyone I know who's seen it says it's terrible. I was still looking forward somewhat to this iteration though, because the Lego properties are always fun and I was a big fan of the sequel trilogy. Whilst I don't think that The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special is great, I had a lot of fun with it. The narrative was a blast, watching Rey go on this journey and seeing her revisit several iconic moments from most of the Star Wars films. There was even one unexpected place she visited for a few seconds, which was a nice surprise. The voice acting took some getting used to because only a couple of original cast members reprised their role, but it was nice that they included some of the talent from the animated shows. There were definite moments of lazy writing and the first ten minutes were a little uninteresting, but I had a really good time overall. If you're a Star Wars fan, I'd recommend it. SCORE: 73%
