Fun film despite some flaws

Rating: 7/10 (5 January 2016)

Star Wars is one of the most established movie series of all time. Despite these films being a tad overrated, I find myself enjoying these films myself. Star Wars: The Force Awakens, was no different. One thing that is overlooked in Star Wars I feel is just how cheesy they can be. That something that I think tons of people glance over when they're watching a Star Wars movie, and the same goes for this one. There was a good handful of cheesy scenes and dialogue that was hard to sit through. While it didn't ruin the movie, it was still quite hard to watch. The action scenes in this film, however, were nice and fluid and well orchestrated, much like the original films. The new characters were fun and interesting and probably the most exciting part of the whole film. Overall, I don't have much to say about The Force Awakens. Yes, it was good, and yes, it was infinitely better than any prequel film. It did have it's pitfalls with some of the dialogue and even some boring scenes, and it for sure felt like a revitalization of the series by bringing back certain key plot elements from the some of the first films. Overall, though, I had fun. That's all that really matters when it comes to Star Wars anyway.
