Although the Rebel Alliance has won a few battles against the Empire, hope is fading. The Empire is about to finish building the greatest weapon the galaxy has ever seen - the Death Star. The rebels' only chance to defeat it now lies in the unlikely hands of a princess, a scoundrel, and a farm boy Since the premier of the original film, Princess Leia, Han Solo, and Luke Skywalker have become iconic, larger-than-life characters. The Princess, the Scoundrel, and the Farm Boy takes a deeper look at these three heroes as they join forces to defeat the evil that threatens their entire galaxy. Although the new perspective's engaging, it lacks elements necessary to the original tale. Bit disappointed Taking the grace out of the main and the Farm Boy character Princess Leiatrying to turn her into a "young girls anthem" for a strong character, continually overshadowed and muted the entire story. A story which is now decades old. By doing this, the simplistic story about friendship, courage, fear, overcoming fear, and sacrifice, was now reduced to internal the Scoundrel. For example, when the Princess planned to escape the Death Star single handedly. This continual theme forced the listener to never really connect with the characters. The emotional struggle was never present, which made the character development two dimensional the Scoundrel never really moved anywhere. I assumed this retelling was going to provide more detail and fill some of the gaps of the original. Instead, I got a reordered, abridged version. I didn't care for it at all. Star Wars: A New Hope the Princess did you like least? How would you have and the Farm Boy the story to make it more enjoyable? Leia's characterization was disappointing. What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike? The performers did a good job. The best parts were the Scoundrel there was interaction between characters. What did you like best about this story? The new focus. The story follows, as the title says, the Princess, the Scoundrel, and the Farm Boy. The story of Luke on the farm, and Ben Kenobi is glossed a bit over, Star Wars: A New Hope the Princess told in memories of the character and similar.
