I never knew I wanted a sword fight sequence with Wilford Brimley, but I'm glad that I got it.

Unlike Caravan of Courage, it's a fun absurd. And, dare I say, actually okay entertainment for an Ewok-obsessed youngster.

Grant that Mr. Lucas's works may have epic themes - battles between good and evil, loosely speaking - but the actual stories are almost incidental. In ''Ewoks: The Battle for Endor,'' the story almost vanishes.

All in all, Ewoks: The Battle for Endor is a complete nostalgia trip, with awesome practical effects, creepy costuming, questionable child acting, and some seriously scary villains.

Battle still holds up as pretty solid, especially for a made-for-television movie.

Ewoks: Battle for Endor may lay waste to established Star Wars mythology but it’s a fast-paced and unusual action movie with impressive visual effects.

Ethereal sci-fi fantasy environment with epic finale battle. Worthy of the name Star Wars.

This is kinda like how Caravan of Courage is like but a little more improved as seeing this first time goes. I do like how it's balanced with the dark moments and the heartfelt moments as the story progresses. However, it does feel like it a little messy start between the family being killed, a sorceress and even a parrot dragon from out of nowhere just to make this movie as dark and most 80's kids movies were like around the time even growing up with some of them. The villains are a tad silly even by design, but I digress. Again, this is a harmless movie for little kids and even for Star Wars fans if they just like to kill time. This is certainly another movie that I wouldn't mind watching again and again every year as Star Wars Month comes and goes. 6/10.

Better compared to other non-cannon Star Wars films, but yeah it's still bad.

It's sad they did an "Alien 3" and killed off a good chunk of the family seemingly for no reason. Plus these are primitive aliens that know how to use blasters? Which seem to contradict each other. But overall, it's a sad but epic end of the Ewoks saga.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Okay, just because Cindel and Wicket were the best parts of the first movie doesn't mean you have to kill off her entire family in the opening scene!
