The realm of fan-made movies is built through a long and proud tradition reaching back decades. The same creative space even produced a handful of films that were close to rivaling its source material, like it's the case with The Hunt For Gollum from 2009, which turned into a true masterpiece. Now, there's a new contender for the fanflick crown, but the focus is on a different fictional universe. This time around, that universe is Star Wars, but one inhabited by, among others, Jedi... cats! The name of this creation is STAR WARS: Fruut & Hari, and it first episode is simply called "Order 66". You can watch the entire creation right here!
From the first moment, there's so much stuff happening in this fan series that it's nearly overwhelming. But, just as fast, the episode finds its footing that quickly turns the viewing process into an engaging adventure which could lead almost anywhere. As Star Wars fans, we can’t help but feel anything other than being instantly pulled into its wacky but exciting domain.
However, the thing that really impressed me is the fact that the series is so masterfully executed. Sure, the VFXs and visuals are very low-fi, but the script, editing, and acting are anything but amateurish. From the first moment, the series initial episode sets the stage by going for maximum drama, which is faithfully following the overall Star Wars approach. Right after that, both the action and drama kick in, with space battles, crash landings, and speeder chases. The fact that all of that was made by a single creator and his cat is mind-blowing.
If you're a fan of cats, Star Wars, or possibly both, this is a must-watch for sure. The level of artistry, cinematic craft, humor, and overall love for all things Star Wars make Fruut & Hari a potential new instant hit in the fanfic world and for all good reasons.
