Entertaining !!

Rating: 7/10 (20 November 2016)

I have one but two confessions to make. One is that I have never watched any Star War movies before this one. And two is that this was an accidental choice since the other movies were sold out.However, within 15 mins I knew I was not going to be disappointed.
The beauty of this movie is that I could understand the plot without much knowing about the franchise. And it had everything...a smart heroine, the mystery about Luke Skywalker, the new Jedi, the romance between the Princess Leia and Hans Solo and finally a father son relationship leading to something sad.
One of the best things about this movie other than the charismatic Hans Solo is a female lead who is ready to fight and win just like Rebecca Ferguson's character in MI5. Loved Daisy Ridley's performance as Rey and looking forward to her in the coming films.
Other solid additions to the franchise are Boyega, Issac and Driver and each give fine performances. The franchise looks to be in safe hands. Overall, entertaining.
