Pratt Review: Star Wars: A New Hope

In “Star Wars: A New Hope” spies for the Rebel Alliance have found and stolen the plans for the Empire’s dreaded Death Star.

Darth Vader then finds their command ship, called the Tantive IV and intercepts Princess Leia, taking her captive. On the other hand, R2D2, holding the Death Star plans, and his loyal counterpart,C3PO, escape.

They soon fall down to the desert planet of Tatooine. On Tatooine they encounter a young farm boy and his uncle. The young boy’s name is Luke Skywalker. Luke then finds out about Obi Wan Kenobi and decides to go on an adventure.

Luke and Obi Wan find a ship to get off the planet to go to Alderaan, but the Death Star blew it up. A little while later Luke rescues Princess Leia and then they escape. When they get back to the rebel base, they form a plan of attack to destroy the Death Star.
