Star Wars Ep. VII: Very good revival of the series!

Rating: 10/10 (23 December 2015)

I watched Star Wars: The Force Awakens yesterday at the cinema in 3D. I am a movie lover although I don't write much reviews, but after I read quite a few negative reviews I felt that some really got this one quite underrated! What to expect more? I have watched 5 of the 6 previous movies, and I didn't really feel it was a remake even though there may be some similarities in the plot with Ep. IV: A New Hope, but I'm wondering how better could it be made? We're not having here a lame reboot, but an excellent continuation with the old characters, in addition to fresh ones that give new stamina to the series... It all made a lot of sense to me... I loved the cast, old ones are as excellent as it goes (Harrison Ford as Han Solo was my favorite), and I liked Daisy Ridley's Rey a lot... The film making and effect were wonderful... I like the ship fighting sequences in 3D, they really got me into it... The action was also very well sequenced, and let us not forget the fun part... At least this one is not a "dark grim future" movie... we're starting to get sick of those! So all in all this was for me a very good Star Wars movie... It got me again onto the series... I highly recommend watching it in a cinema not far, far away ;) Can't wait for Ep. VIII!
