A good solid sequel - don't listen to the trolls

Rating: 7/10 (28 March 2016)

Despite all the trolls talking the film down, I thought it was enjoyable and in keeping with the original theme. Ren was the weakest character both in the film and as an actor but on the whole a good solid film. There was an element of recycling of the original story but it has laid the ground for the next installment and I for one am looking forward to that release. I am sure the story will expand answering the questions opened by this episode. Much better than episodes 1,2 and 3 which in hindsight were pretty dire, Abrams has brought the humor and frolics of the original bang up to date and set the fans imagination with his next creation.
