Critics Consensus

The Force isn't fully with this Lego Star Wars adventure, but its affectionate franchise callbacks and self-aware humor should please fans looking to spend their holidays in a galaxy far, far away...

Fun for the whole family. Nostalgic for star wars fans. Crazy and whacky enough for non-star-wars fans

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Głównie skierowana do młodszego odbiorcy (kto by się spodziewał), zawiera w sobie kilka fajnych żartów, ale głównie służy do przedstawienia klasycznych wydarzeń

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

You're better off watching the 1978 special on YouTube.

The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special may just be a goof, but it hints at the possibility of exploring other underdeveloped aspects of The Rise of Skywalker.

Variety

At the end of the (Life) day, The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special is a fun, self-contained adventure which feels a few bricks short of a full Star Wars load.

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

In all, the LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special is a joyful, albeit short return to the Star Wars sequel era, and the entire saga, through a sweet story, hilarious writing, and an excellent Yoda in a bowler cap and sweater.

Rated: 9/10

Millennial Falcon Reviews

This is not a film to be taken seriously, and anyone who does should seriously question why they are expecting a LEGO movie to salvage their love or hate for the sequel trilogy. It is most impressive and most humorous if you allow yourself to enjoy it.

Rated: A+

M.N. Miller

Ready Steady Cut

We are treated to all that Lego goodness that picks up right after Star Wars: The Rise of the Skywalker and that incorporates themes of that notorious Lucas payday with a sci-fi twist on a classic holiday trope — and it works.

Rated: 3.5/5
