Feel like I'm 7 again. Pure magic for me

Rating: 9/10 (23 December 2015)

I remember going to watch A New Hope In '77 with my Dad.
Last night I took him to watch The Force Awakens.
I came out with the same feeling of wonder that I did in '77, as did my 72 year old dad.
Not sure why so many negative reviews, personally I think Disney had to bring the Franchise back to where it should have been, in my opinion they succeeded. Not a reboot as so much shifts with the story line, yes some similarities but with a blueprint like that how can it be bad.
Read Heir to The Empire and all the books by Zahn etc and wasn't overly impressed, the Rogue Squadron books were so much more 'Star Wars'. I won't watch the prequels again, just doesn't do it for me.
I will be watching the Force Awakens with my son on Boxing Day again and I'm looking forward to it as much as I was last night, I'm sure I'll watch it many times like the original trilogy.
Came out smiling like a child. That for me is enough. I didn't have the capacity to go through the pluses and minuses when I was 7, I just enjoyed the film, did that again last night and loved every minute from the opening titles to the final shot.
Stunning and complete Star Wars. Go see it and get the wonder back in your life.
