A perfect Star Wars, A cinematic masterpiece.

Rating: 10/10 (5 August 2017)

I have been watching Star Wars since I could walk, knowing the inside and out of every nook and cranny in the series. I, like many of you, adore the original 1977 release far more than the 1997, and despise Jar Jar Binks. Honestly, the Phantom Menace should have never existed.
The series took a massive slide during Episodes I, II and III. No one can deny this. It had some great things, but overall it was a flop. The CGI was a total crash-and-burn. But Episode VII, my god did it return the series to greatness!
It contained everything you wanted. The death of a master, a man carving his destiny of hate to the dark side, a hero who rises above, a traitor, love, anger, and best of all, the familiar faces we all wanted back. The crawling title is by far the most amazing opener to a film I have ever seen. I lost track of everything else in the world for a moment. Time stood still, reading a stellar setup for a masterpiece. It had everything you could want. I was nearly brought to tears.
It is no secret that our villain cannot live up to Darth Vader, arguably the greatest villain of all time. Or can he? He may turn out to become even more great than Vader, fueled by hate and fear of not being as powerful as the man that stood king before him. This pushes Kylo Ren to be more ferocious than Vader could ever have been. He has to be the best and no one will stop him.
As for our hero and her companion, they are phenomenal. Finn is true. A traitor to the dark side, stolen from his family, he grows up and makes his own choice to sacrifice himself for the greater good of the galaxy. But Finn is paled in comparison to Rey. I do not even know where to begin. Rey is perfect. She is what the galaxy needed. A rag-tag hero who lets go of everything she ever knew and goes to fight for the resistance. She is truly fearless and strong minded like Luke. She will be the perfect hero for a perfect trilogy.
With Kylo Ren being parallel to Anakin Skywalker and Rey to Luke, this series has so much more in store for us. It was perfect beyond belief. Touches of the old were spliced with the new and together they form a bond that will stand the test of time.
