Don't listen to jaded haters. (No Spoilers)

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2015)

As a 30 something who grew up on the original trilogy and like so many others was utterly disappointed by the prequels I went into viewing The Force Awakens with great anxiety and reservation. This movie delivered in so many ways. I am not going to write a detailed or even general review of the film as I truly feel one should go into viewing knowing as little as possible. I have been frustrated with the amount of lukewarm reviews this movie has been receiving from fans. This is one time I think the critics are on track, as evidenced by the 95% fresh rating from critics on rotten tomatoes. I know, I know, we're sitting at 89% here on IMDb, and that's actually higher, (for now) than any previous Star Wars movie--including the much praised Empire. My advice is this: Try to sit in the theater and enjoy this movie. If you try to dislike it... you might just succeed. But I can honestly say this is the most fun I've had watching ANY movie in a long time. PS Don't take a hater/negative Nancy with you, go with someone who enjoys fun, exciting and well made movies!
