Audience Member fun little short. working checking out, its only 7 min. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Entertaining little short. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member All the gags and comedic punches comes from knowing the Star Wars films. Haven't seen Star Wars? Too bad, this film ain't for you. But by now, who hasn't seen those films? Safe to say, if you did, it's quirky fun and sure to bring back a lot of nostalgia. Nevertheless, it's way too dependent on references to Star Wars.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member very, very funny. Great for any fan of Star Wars Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked 'George Lucas In Love' (a title reference to 'Shakespeare In Love') for the true story of how the young George Lucas got his ideas for 'Star Wars'. There's lots of good stuff here; among of them include an asthmatic rival (Darth Vader), a backwards-talking adviser (Yoda), and a bun-hairdo beauty (Princess Leia). This short film really got me into understanding how the 'Star Wars' ideas really came true out of advice from the characters as well as the people that Lucas saw in film school. I give 'George Lucas In Love' four stars! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
