Reviews
Light-hearted and profound
Full of heart and emotion that might just bring a tear to your eye. If it doesn’t though it’s still got lightsabers and alien space dogs.
Wholly original and exceptionally funny
a spiky, effervescent treat, like Spielberg's ET put in a blender with a bottle of Irn-Bru.
