The 12 Nights Of Horror Movie Reviews

Donster's brief, spoil-free reviews are a quick & easy way to determine which Horror, Dark Fantasy, Sci-Fi or Adventure movies or series are worth watching. Donster is a big fan of these genres, so you can trust the Monster's reviews! My reviews are based on a (1-12) score out of 12 DARK MOONS.

7/12 = An okay movie or series, but wait until there's nothing else to watch.
6/12 = A So-So movie or series that should only be watched if on a free platform and there's nothing else to watch three times over!

OUR FAVORITE BOUNTY HUNTER'S STORY CONTINUES!
11/12 Dark Moons
Being one of the biggest 'original-fans' of the Holy Trinity of movie sagas: Star Wars-Eps 1, 2 & 3 (Yes, I was there and waited in blocks-long lines again and again for all three of these epic George Lucas creations) I'm very excited to follow the continuing story of one of the coolest OG characters from ESB and ROTJ!
And The Book of Boba Fett does not disappoint... What I really look for in any continuation of a storyline (Prequel, sequel or character spin-off storylines) is whether it effectively connects, in some meaningful way, to the other episode it's continuing from or setting up.
And that's exactly what Jon Favreau does so well with BOBF! It opens on the sands of Tatooine during the time of Return of The Jedi. I won't say more, but it does explain a lot of how Boba's storyline goes on after his apparent indigestive swallowing-up of by the deadly Sarlacc pit. Then establishing himself on the sandy planet, along with his capable, hard-hitting mercenary friend, Fennec Shand.
It's a fairly short episode, at 38 minutes running time (including the credits). And it leaves a whole lot of room and curiosity as to where the Bounty Hunter's adventures will take him (by jet pack?) in the remaining chapters (total of 7 episodes) of season one.
(Disney Plus will release one episode per week, on Wednesdays).
Chapter One does effectively establish Boba's new beginning though. And I trust Mr. Favreau to take us on a great sandstorm of adventure in a galaxy far, far away! I'll be tuning in each wednesday to let you know!
