Star Wars is back!

Rating: 10/10 (20 December 2015)

I am seeing a lot of people nitpick this movie pretty bad, and I know that is gonna happen with any movie this big, and any Star Wars movie for that matter, but people really need to calm down a little bit. First of all, I recognize that this movie has some flaws, but every movie does and anyone who expected a perfect movie is completely unrealistic, and really only has themselves to blame for being let down. The OT are, in my opinion, some of the greatest films ever made but they have some issues too people all movies do!!! That being said this is such a great movie. Its amazing to be back in this world, especially since it feels like Star Wars again. Some people are complaining that the movie didn't flesh things out enough, and I think that for certain things that is correct, but Lucasfilm is leaving reveals for other films and they are smartly thinking ahead instead of blowing everything in the first film. Others are claiming that the movie is a rehash of A New Hope, when really it is mainly just homage with a couple points that I agree were too similar, and I think this movie is based on the idea that history repeats itself. Every single person that I know that has seen this movie, which is pretty much everybody that I know, absolutely loved it even if they had a couple minor issues, and there is no doubt to me that this is an amazing start to this new trilogy! The original cast was all brought back in a perfect way, the new characters are great and I already love them, and I cannot wait to see what comes next. The force awakens is no doubt the most difficult task ever handed to a filmmaker, and JJ Abrams did an amazing job bringing Star Wars back. It is a complete triumph, and it deserves all the money that it is going to make. I cannot wait for episode 8!!
