Its James Bond in the Sky

Rating: 6/10 (23 December 2015)

I'm not one for hype, but having seen all the originals as a kid I thought why not. I didn't bother with the last 2, although I may have switched off the minute that Binx robot thing appeared.
This is obviously the most over hyped film ever made, so much so that I wouldn't be surprised if film Journo's were paid to give it good reviews. Marketing wise, this film is bigger than anything I've ever seen,
Its alright, just alright, some of the acting is terrible, the main girl is rather annoying. I couldn't help but think its just grown men dressed in silly costume playing make believe.
The film lacked a really evil lead, darth Vader was sorely missed. The other dude was basically a drip in mask that gave him a scary voice.
It reminded me of James Bond, in that the baddies were terrible at shooting, but the good guys were amazing. The same can be said for the space ships.
Once all the hype dies down the ratings will start to tumble.
But if you're one of those sados with a light saber on your FB profile you'll probably love it or be too scared to say you didn't. Equally, if you're a 12 year old kid you'll love it too.
