For a tale where four children have to learn to protect themselves in an outsize version of the confusing, dangerous adult world, this show’s universe is nicely pitched, its perils just unsafe enough to be gently thrilling. When the kids find themselves manning laser blasters and fending off bad guys in aerial combat, they’re playing the ultimate video game, and it makes total sense.

Aside from the prevailing “toys are for babies” opinion of Wim’s father and peers, Skeleton Crew hasn’t fully fleshed out exactly why Wim’s Jedi adoration is seen as so uncool. .... Regardless, that approach is at least a change of pace from the rest of Skeleton Crew, which with its by-the-numbers scenes of kids riding bikes, bickering, and growing together feels derivative of the similarly Amblin-influenced Stranger Things a little too often.

There’s a ceiling on the ambitions of a show that sticks to its “Goonies”-esque playbook and keeps things so light; “Skeleton Crew” takes “Star Wars” to new places only in the literal sense. But the show is able to nail its limited brief, and make a “Star Wars” show that’s actually rooted in childhood rather than evoking memories of one’s own.
