It is an EVENT Movie in every sense of the word, Star Wars Reborn !

Rating: 9/10 (18 December 2015)

If you are here and avoiding Spoilers, really really you should not be anywhere !! Stop right now and go see the movie, then come back here, there, wherever and read others opinions and thoughts. That being said, there are no spoilers in this review.
A great film. A movie made how movies are supposed to be made. Real props. Real sets. Real Locations. An Event Movie along the lines of JAWS, RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS... movies that must be seen in the theater, in a crown, a shared event experience.
No need to tell you who is in it, or even what it is about. Y'all want to know is it good? Is it a train wreck? Is it over the top? Is it boring? Is its Transformers style cornucopia of explosions and tracking shots...
It is a great movie. Deserving its spot at #20 (hit there on opening day none the less??!!) yes, #20 on the all time greatest movie list right here at IMDb. Well deserved. It is A MOVIE. The kind we will call a classic, the kind we will show our kids and grandkids.
A well deserved new start for the world of Star Wars. I give Disney and J.J. Abrams and A+ on this one. they spent the time and money to do it right and it shows every minute on screen.
Go. Enjoy. Love it for what it is. An Event Movie that must be seen in the theater with all your friends and family. Share the experience, be better for it. I promise.
