Fresh but Familiar

Rating: 8/10 (11 January 2017)

Star Wars the Force Awakens is a great new installments to the Star Wars universe as it adds a great jumping on point for new people to the franchise. However it provides a great continuation of what die hards love about Star Wars as people who love all previous installments in the franchise will feel right at home.
Force Awakens brings a great cast with some familiar faces into the film which provides it with a strong foundation for success in the future as it has successfully reinvigorated the franchise.
Even though this film has taken cues from a New Hope in terms of story and characters it hardly works to its detriment in the grand scheme of things.
All in all a great film and a must see for all Star Wars fans and those looking to get into the wide world of Star Wars.
