Awesome

I am one of the lucky people to be old enough to remember the Original Star Wars movie "A New Hope". I can see it now, me, enthralled, exiting the cinema wielding an imaginary lightsaber and then some years later owning hoards of figures featured in all three of the trilogy.
Now I am quite a bit older and, sadly, without any of those very precious and valuable figures, and find the saga is finally over. I feel quite sad about the fact that these movies and storyline have been with me since childhood and now it's all over. The one consolation is that this final instalment answers all the questions I have been asking since 1977 and also gave me a big part of the initial excitement I felt back then.
As always George Lucas depicts his imagination to perfection with dazzling special effects, a somewhat darker storyline than in any of the previous five movies and pays particular attention to detail and accuracy of tying Episode III into the original release in 1977.
I can only say that this movie is one hell of a ride from beginning to end and, I'm sure, will be enjoyed by generations to come. A must see for all fans, both avid and to newcomers to the Star Wars universe alike.
