Gets better with every viewing!!!!

Rating: 9/10 (16 January 2016)

This was the film that every Star Wars fan was wishing for!!! I know that some are criticizing this film for being nothing more than a remake of Episode 4. Though I can agree that there are similarities, it isn't a remake! It us part of a story arc, takes place 30 years after episode 6. So what if it hearkens back to episode 4? Weren't the prequels vastly criticized for NOT being like the original trilogy. What makes Star Wars so great is that it makes you feel a certain way, the prequels spent too much time with dialogue and plot that they became tedious. JJ Abrams is obviously a fan of the original trilogy. He takes what I loved about Star Wars and brings that feeling of adventure back. I couldn't stop smiling throughout. I love this film. Are there some things that missed? Yes, but mostly this is a Star Wars movie through and through. Is it pure nostalgia, absolutely.
I've seen it 4 times and like it more every time.
