a cinematic piece of art that gets underrated by a fan-base that's never satisfied

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2015)

It's sad to see that a lot of old-school fans are hating on this wonderful piece of cinematic art, because it almost had me (who's also an old-school Star Wars fan) in tears.
What most people want to know is what separates "The Force Awakens" from the prequels and it's actually easy to determine:
The characters. There were almost no lovable characters in the prequels, but the new actors in 'Force Awakens' are not only doing a great job, but also conquer a place in your heart faster than you would ever think.
Especially Daisy Ridley's performance was outstanding, even more so if you consider that she doesn't have much experience regarding big movie appearances. Oscar Isaac and John Boyega are also doing a great job and you just do not get bored of their characters, but of course ... the most brilliant actor besides Daisy Ridley in this movie is definitely Adam Driver. I will not spoiler any story details, but I will say this:
The Force Awakens is a wonderfully crafted movie with such love for detail that it left me breathless and astounded ! Go watch it without any prejudices - and you will experience a great, great movie and a more than worthy sequel of the old trilogy.
