Not As Good As Episode III But It Was Good!

Rating: 8/10 (25 August 2016)

I read a review on IMDb that said this film was over hyped, how could someone say that?! JJ Abrams did a magnificent job with this film by sticking to everything that's true about the spirit of "Star Wars" and the force. This film was great, not as good as "Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith", but it was good, nonetheless. And I'm not just saying that because I'm a huge "Star Wars" fan. It was great to see some of the original cast in this film. That made this film so much more believable and tangible and it also gave this film more of that true spirit of the original "Star Wars" films. The situation that was unfolding between Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher), Han Solo (Harrison Ford), and their son, Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), added a dysfunctional family piece to the drama that was already surrounding the story of this film. To me this made the film even more tangible and made these characters even more believable. The characters of Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Finn (John Boyega) were a good addition to the series. Finn's personality in this film fits him perfectly because his actions proves he doesn't have what it takes to a stormtrooper and Rey's rugged personality fits her as well, being that she was left on Jakku to fend for herself. Over all, this is a great story and a great film. If you are a true fan of the force you will enjoy this film. I recommend it.
