Jude Law’s "Skeleton Crew" plus more stars from a galaxy far, far away
Synopsis
Four children make a mysterious discovery on their home planet that leads them to become lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy.. The holographic circus that entertains Neel’s young siblings is the same one that Chewbacca’s family watches in the infamous Star Wars holiday special (1978).
starring AniMat's Crazy Cartoon: Silly Old Deadly Bear (2022)
I approach this review with caution, acknowledging that 'Skeleton Crew' seems aimed at a younger audience. While kids might enjoy it, I found the first four episodes to be rather underwhelming.
The war backdrop feels superficial, and the action sequences lack the impact they should have
The story lacks depth, more like a children’s movie that jumps from place to place without much consequence. The acting, while not terrible, could have been stronger, especially considering the caliber of some of the cast.
Please prove me wrong!
Even Jude Law seems like he’s on the phone at times. The production design is impressive, but it can’t save a story that feels slow and ultimately quite forgettable from my first viewing, and I’m still unconvinced.
