Convincing nostalgia shipment.
Congratulation to the producers and directors. A classic fantasy action flick, well entertaining. A worthy sequel of the Star Wars saga. Although you'll see a lot of its known gear movie-recycled again, robots, space ships etc., don't worry, it just adds to the fun. Way better IMO than the new sequels of the Star Trek saga. Graphics, CGI are remarkably excellent, and yet without excessive overuse. The story is surely simple, but solid, good enough. For the sake of the fun, a new robot is introduced, with better entertaining qualities than the previous R2-D2 IMO. Also in general the humor is appropriate and adds to the fun. A great Forest Withaker in a minor role.
The movie rides on nostalgia wave, intentionally maybe, but never mind, it pays off.
