Star Wars: Skeleton Crew, a new Disney+ series created by Jon Watts, is reviewed, focusing on its first two episodes. The show features a group of children on a galactic adventure reminiscent of classic Amblin films like The Goonies, utilizing practical effects and a nostalgic aesthetic. While praised for its charming characters and visuals, concerns are raised about predictable plot points and the underdeveloped central mystery surrounding their seemingly idyllic home planet. Despite these issues, the series is considered promising and potentially a much-needed success for the Star Wars franchise.
