Reawakened my inner fanboy

Rating: 7/10 (18 December 2015)

Not flawless, but close enough. Plenty of moments gave me goosebumps. Very true to it's origins, it will boost your experience if you've recently seen the first trilogy (again).
Splendid battles, terrific visual effects. Relatable characters and a peculiar but interesting plot choice.
I can't quite put my finger on it but the older characters seem a little off, acting is on par but there's just "something" about them.
Some scenes and events seem a little forced and crammed into this first film, so people can become familiar with them I guess. But overall pace is good.
In the end, this is simply an amazing movie. Abrams did a great job and I walked out immediately wanting to watch part 8!
