Rod Stewart Knoxville reviews
Star Wars in Concert was fantastic!
Here is the rearranged review with a few words switched:
"Our son said at the end, "That was the best surprise EVER!" and we're not sure how to top it. The orchestra was spot on, the screen and special effects were amazing, and Anthony Daniels' narration was just right, and frequently quite funny. Letting John Williams' music tell the six-movie story is a wonderful twist on the tale. There was a minor technical glitch when the feed to the screen went out briefly, but apart from that, it was fantastic. Some of the clips that were mixed into the musical timeline seemed odd to us (Gungans on Naboo during the telling of the Battle of Endor? Ooookay), but extremely entertaining and well worth the money. My wife and I took our son for his sixth birthday as a surprise, and he was thrilled! Don't forget your costumes!"
