Review of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) by Oliver G — 10 Mar 2018

Force awakens was a good movie, I was glad to have the taste of the badly made prequels washed out of my mouth. The original cast was back, john williams did a great job with the score, and the film used real sets, creatures, real film and original lenses used in new hope.

there wasn't bad cgi, real emotional light saber battles, and overall good acting, loved the new characters and this film delivers. However, the script relied too close to the original new hope formula, I think it works because this is a reboot, but in subsequent films the directors and writers will hopefully take the series in another direction, I don't want to see a remake of empire/jedi.

would be nice to see some new original stories.
