A Masterpiece!

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Sure, sure, the accents, the acting, dialog, at times and the direction. All sub-par. Who cares? The special effects are really, really, great. There are so many good, and breathtaking aerial shots. Sure, perhaps the resolution could have been higher, it's not as 'sharp' as a Hollywood movie, but then, they probably didn't have the bloated and overpriced software that Hollywood uses. And there are so many, especially towards the end of the film. Especially the asteroid belt sequence was pretty awesome. There are so many space scenes, and city scapes, it's just very cool to watch. I hate CGI, which why the special effect of A new Hope are far superior, but somehow here, it didn't bother me.Also great were the fight scenes. In general, this film looked as if it had very high production value. In an expensive country like Sweden, with the highest living standard in the world, that is pretty impressive to achieve that for a budget of 6000 euros. One way to make this film 'better' would be to re-dub it with English or American actors. But I wouldn't. One, it would be unfair to the actors, especially the two actors that are ALLEREDE have been dubbed. Two, that would be just giving in to the stupidest demographic in America. Europeans don't really care about Swedish accents. Because they know it's not the accents that matter.The only ones who complain about the script being slow, are ADHD kids with a multiplex addiction.It was a bit weird to see a SW movie with no black people in it, and yes Sweden DOES TOO have black people.Lord Siege and Raven Darkholm were the best actors, Siege was VERY convincing, I hated that guy! The king and queen were decent, the pilot and the mentor Jedi were pretty bad, as well as the princess.The Melancholic Alcoholic.

First the bad news. The acting was below average, most of the graphics were done sub-par, and the story was predictable. Having said that I think overall this movie was ambitious and it tried to tell a new story. I liked it and look forward to seeing how this production group will make the next installment better. But for the love of god please look into some acting lessons for the main characters. You are on your way to the possibility of an acting career so give it the effort it deserves and make us fans proud. In the mean time have the effects team beaten a little and tell them to step it up, this is Star Wars we are talking about. Don't half-ass it. I did like the asteroid belt scene and wish the entirety of the graphics had seen as much attention. It was obviously green screen a lot of the time and unfortunately you can see the halo around the actors as they walk through the scene. But hey, i can't do any better so keep up the good work and make sure it evolves. Overall I enjoyed it and will show it to my friends to judge for themselves.

If you want to be impressed by special effects on-the-cheap, then this is the movie for you. Provided you watch less than 10-minutes of it. Otherwise, the writing is pedestrian at best and atrocious at worst. The acting isn't much better. However, I could have stomached that if the editing had been tight. Unfortunately, the pacing is set to the speed of poured molasses. The creators needed to cut about 40% of the material they presented.At the end of the day, this is just a hot mess of self-love. I wouldn't be shocked if the creators thought they were making the next great epic Star Wars story. Instead, they've just emphasized that if you were good enough to make a great movie, you wouldn't be making fan-fiction.

For a fan film, this is a huge undertaking I bet. I found it not so well executed, as the acting, directing, screenplay, script are mostly amateuristic. The audio was fairly nice and the CGI is jumping out as the classy aspect of this movie. Impressive, really. The blue-key was not properly applied and it shows, badly.We see a Jedi master, kind of Obi wan, and the prodigy, kind of like Anakin. Throughout the film there are lots of scenes and lines that look very familiar. It seems this film is more like a tribute, re-hashing bits from the originals, stitched together with a story around a truly naive princess.Also some action scenes were fairly nicely done, where one can see they had to make do with little equipment. Conclusion: not all was that bad. I was slightly entertained, but the big damper is the lack of consistency. I just couldn't just go with it you know. The only way to watch this and properly enjoy it, is to be a true Star Wars fan.Key to understanding this movie is not to compare it with big budget studio productions
