**The Good:**

I love how this special boldly takes the only good idea from the 1978 disaster (Life Day) and combines that with a trip down the memory lane to some of the finest moments within the franchise and serves as a continuation of the story from Rise of Skywalker.

This is silly and over-the-top in the perfect Lego way, but it has genuine laugh aloud moments as well.

The Lego animation is colourful, fluid and filled with small details for everybody to catch and enjoy.

Usually, I would dislike how a production like this makes every character goofy and anything but what we know them as, but that's kind of the point of a Lego parody, so I'll forgive that.

The voice actors do a fine job impersonating the original actors, down to the accent. Special mention to Trevor Devall, who seems to have a great time portraying the Emperor.

What's great about this special is that it's not afraid to make fun of the Star Wars franchise, while also treating it with the respect it deserves and having loads of lighthearted fun along the way. There are even a feel-good atmosphere and things to learn here.

The most important thing is that Lucasfilm redeemed itself with this new and lovely Christmas special, a true gem compared to the one that must not be named.

**The Bad:**

The sheer amount of stuff going on is so massive that it's difficult to keep up and properly enjoy some parts.

----

**The Ugly:**

"IT'S A WRAP!!!"

**WACPINE RATING: 5.86 / 10.00 = 3 stars**
