However, George Lucas is a real geek - consumed with toys, cool shots, bringing you inside the plane, making you experience the battle, the action - excellent special effects!  What he lacks is the ability to bring you inside the characters or to find the heart of the piece.  The film does a

bringing you inside the plane, making you experience the battle, the

bring you inside the characters or to find the heart of the piece.
