The Force has Awakened! Delightful Film!

Rating: 10/10 (17 December 2015)

This movie was excellent, If i were to choose one word that described this entire film for me, is that is was a delight.
A treat if i may. What an excellent and fun movie to watch and enjoy. I was never a big Star Trek fan, but when i saw the reboot JJA, did, i was really impressed, and thoroughly enjoyed his style of storytelling. Ever since the, he had been on the top of my list of directors to direct the next Star Wars film, if it were ever to be made. Few years later behold. JJA, was announced to be directing the next Star Wars Film!
Im really glad JJA took the helm of this much beloved franchise, I honestly don't think there is any other director, who could have taken this franchise and set the new tone and bar for the next installment, the way JJ did. MAJOR Props to everyone involved in making this film. Yes, i do agree that the plot is similar to the older traditional films, but its the "Star Wars" story! You will never get that confused with any other franchise. They way the characters (Old/New) are introduced are seamless and flow beautifully into the film. The craftsmanship of the props and effects are incredible along with the visuals. It was a nice blend between the two and it worked so perfectly. This movie really makes you feel like a kid again, and i had a blast!!!!
This movie may disappoint some hardcore fans or movie critics, because you just cant please everyone, and people can be so nit picky and annoying despite all the HARD work put into making films in general. But, i understand the amount of hard work, time, and commitment that went into making this film and, IT DELIVERS the goods in 12 Par Secs, taking us on a new journey back into a Universe we once visited, and have come to love.
It feels so good to be back!
Edit 12/22: Watched it 4 times now. Opening Night, Opening Weekend, and Twice today (Once with my mom, and second with a friend). More than likely will be seeing two more times with other friends and family, but i love experiencing this movie with friends and family!
With the Mom: She had forgotten about the old star wars film, and didn't remember them well, but she was on the edge of her seat the entire movie. She loved the film so much, she could not stop talking about. The first thing she says when we walk out the auditorium was "Wow, that a really movie. Thank you Son!"
With the Friend: He had been a fan of the original trilogy as child like all of us, but never watched the prequels. Also he isn't big into scifi or marvel movies. He likes more drama and actor/actress driven type movies, like Wolf of Wall Street, Drive, The Departed. But i got him to come and see The Force Awakens, and he also thoroughly enjoyed it. He enjoyed seeing the Millennium Falcon back on the big screen, as well just seeing places that bring us back to the good ol trilogies.
