Star Wars: A Fresh Plot That Takes Risks. 8.5/10

Rating: 7/10 (16 December 2017)

In this latest installment of the new triology of Star Wars.
We see that The Resistance is on the run from The New Order.
The pros of this movie definetly include:
1. A fresh story that takes very few elements from Episode 5.
2. New characters that are well developed.
3. Sound design, graphics, and action sequences are all very satisfying.
4. A significant scene towards the later part of movie is very well done. The cinematography is mixed with a mystical sense of gratification.
The cons of this movie:
1. The new bird creatures (Porgs) are forced into too many scenes that offer no significant purpose.
2. Transitions are abrupt and a bit confusing - if you're not paying much attention.
3.Some scenes are very unrealistic - even by Star Wars standards of fasntasy. They just seem a bit awkward.
4. Some side characters are annoying.
This movie takes risks in introducing new worlds and characters. I would reccommend going into this movie with an open mind that doesn't try and compare with the original series. Force Awakens was better filmed, but it's Star Wars. It's enjoyable.
