These were not the droids I was looking for. Fun. But not perfect.

Rating: 8/10 (17 December 2015)

STAR WARS : THE FORCE AWAKENS - In IMAX 3D. I said it before and I'll say it again. J.J. Abrams is really good at taking other people's ideas and making them work. Or reworking them. Or at least getting the right people involved to help him. But has never hit it out of the ball park for me. He has come close. But never Bang On. It's nice to see a Star Wars film with the techniques and feeling of the originals. Before Lucas went all nuts with power and digital "WE DON'T NEED TO MAKE SETS" "WE DON'T NEED TO USE PEOPLE" special effects. Nothing will ever compare to the original Star Wars. Nothing. This film was well made, directed, and acted. Fun. But these were not the droids I was looking for. smile emoticon I hope the next generation likes it more than me. I give it an 8.5 out of 10.
