Review Detail

This is terrifically entertaining! I actually like the original but this has surpassed it for me. The addition of the opening crawl and screen wipe transitions really give it a true Star Wars feel. Audio and colour correction is perfectly done. I thought the Star Destroyers in one of the space establishing shots looked a little cartoony but that is the only criticism I can think of for the technical editing.

Loved that Han no longer needs to have an origin story for his surname. I was sad to see the shower scene go but I understand how the scene transition would not work with it.

Highly recommended.
