The Feeling is back. For 2 hours I was a kid again =)

Rating: 8/10 (29 December 2015)

If there is anything the Force Awakens did right for me was that it truly gave me the Nostalgia factor. I was a kid again if only for a brief 2 hours left wanting more! Let's start with the story.'Contains Spoilers'... Many have said this is just a copy of a New Hope.. In a way it is. But i Understand why it was done.. This movie is mainly for a new generation of fans, It's a sort of reboot if you will. Disney and J.J mainly made this film to target a new audience to the Star Wars Universe and what better way to do that than to give them the same ride we older fans received from Lucas. The story follows a very similar path. Focuses on 3 new leads and brings their stories together to fight against the First Order and destroy Star Killer Base. The film ends on an excellent Cliff Hanger and leaves you wanting more. Some complain about too many plot holes. This was done on purpose and there is already a few books out that explain a lot of back story of the characters. I love to read so this is no issue to me but i can understand how some have a problem with it and i am sure plenty will be answered in Episode 8. The Dialogue and character relationships in the film are spot on Star Wars. The Humor is excellent and they did a great job with throwing in a lot of nostalgia factors to give a nod to the original trilogy. It really did feel like watching an original Trilogy film and that's what i loved most about it.
Where this film falls short is that it seems rushed. It kinda did feel like they were trying to squeeze in everything they could in a short amount of time and this tends to dwindle down the emotion and connection the film could of had if it wasn't so rushed. There is a certain Death in the film that takes place but as much as i wanted to feel emotion from it, it kinda happened and moved on so fast that i didn't feel anything of it. There was really no build up and no real crazy surprises or twists either. But besides that it was a great start to a new generation of Star Wars movies! I only hope 8 is longer, explains the plot holes and has more emotion to it.
I give this film an 8/10 for great action, Dialogue, humor, Cinematography, design and overall fun factor. I'm also a huge fan of nostalgia so it gets a big plus for that as well.
If your a true Star Wars fan you will appreciate what Disney is doing and hope they keep on the write track.
