Not bad, not great, just a spin on Episode III

Rating: 5/10 (19 December 2015)

So the movie is not bad, compared to other movies of 2015 it's quite good. I don't know if it is just my problem but I kinda expected something more. If it wouldn't have been so hyped and publicized it may have seem as a much better movie. Another problem with it is that it's pretty much a remake of Episode III, with some elements from Episode IV and (this is probably the best part) much better special effects (compared to Episodes I-III, somehow I find the special effects from the first movies as being better than EP. I-III) and no silly "Jar Jar Binks" characters (it does have some mistakes in there, but they wouldn't count for the majority of moviegoers). Now I'm hopping that they are going for a better one with Episodes VIII and IX, kinda like with the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The first one was good in setting up the plot for the other two films. Why did i gave it a 7/10 - it has to do mostly with the hype, probably just too much of it. Otherwise it's a good film - as somewhat of a SPOILER a much beloved character dies towards the end, and you get a few hints it is going to happen along the way.
