I feel sorry for those that dislike this movie for it seems they have lost the wonder and excitement that Star Wars has always held for me.

Rating: 9/10 (9 January 2016)

Maybe it's because I still grew up with my imagination (seeing Star Wars as a kid), instead of instant electronic feedback (don't get me wrong - I heart technology with the best of them) but I loved this movie! It FELT like the first three Star Wars movies to me. Personally, I don't care that this film doesn't incorporate this time line or ignores this universe or that. All I know is that I felt like I was being taken along with these new characters on a new adventure and I couldn't wait to see what happened next! There's also enough of our old friends in there that we feel that old, familiar camaraderie that has carried us through the first movies. I'm looking forward to seeing this one again and will be first in line for the next ones too.
