Lego Star Wars: Especial de Festas

Although I'm a big fan of Star Wars and have no interest in watching the original Holiday special, 'The LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special' is one perfect Holiday special to watch!

The story is set after the events of Episode 9 where Rey sets on a quest to find the perfect Life Day tradition to gain a deeper knowledge of the Force, but she accidentally hurls into a cross-timeline adventure.

This is one hilarious and heartwarming LEGO Star Wars special to watch for the holiday season!

Average Lego movie. Does have more holes then aged Swiss cheese and some missed potential but overall worth a watch of you want some dumb fun Lego fun.

Look, I get it. This is supposed to be aimed at kids. But this just feels like a badly written episode of Robot Chicken Star Wars. Full of fan service moments in lego form. However the jokes just come across as silly instead of funny. I'd much rather watch the original Holiday Special, and that's not saying much.

This is actually a lot better than the actual sequel trilogy. The story is Rey leaves on a mission after reading a book about a temple after she wanted to know what she is doing wrong with teaching Finn, and she finds a key to that allows her to go back in time. However, when she sees Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine on the second Death Star, the dark lord of the Sith is sent to retrieve the key. Also, there is a B-story where Poe Dameron decides to take charge with preparing the Life Day party, to disastrously funny results.

It's a neat special, to be honest. It has key scenes from the prequel and original trilogy (as well as a short scene set in The Mandalorian), the special is filled with references to Star Wars meta and even contains the action Star Wars is known for and the humor Lego comes with. Also, it avoids the cheesy variety that the 1978 Holiday Special is infamous for (no cheesy comedy shorts, no questionable music numbers, and no Art Carney being important to the plot). This is a neat special for all ages, as it teaches a good moral, and is more exciting than The Rise Of Skywalker.

I don't know why this special has so many negative reviews. I like how it paid homage to all nine 'primary' movies (and the Mandalorian), was self-deprecating of many aspects of the franchise, and was legitimately funny. Yes, except for Anthony Daniels and Billy Dee Williams, it's not the movie actors, but there are quite a few voice actors returning from Clone Wars, which was great to hear. Certainly worth a viewing from any life-long Star Wars fan.
