Review of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) by Dann M — 04 Feb 2018
Star Wars: The Force Awakens, a direct sequel to the original Star Wars trilogy, revitalizes the franchise, delivering an exciting and action-packed space adventure. In the wake of the disappearance of Luke Skywalker, the last Jedi Knight, two rival factions, the Resistance and the First Order, chase after a driod that contains a map to Skywalker's secret location.
The plot is quite similar to that of the first Star Wars; changing out the Death Star plans for a map, Darth Vader for Kylo Ren, and a naïve farm boy for a scavenger. Yet it still has its own style and tone that both homages the original trilogy and does its own thing.
Additionally, newcomer Daisy Ridley has great screen presence and gives a strong performance. Also, the special effects are incredibly well-done, as are the sets and costumes. With Star Wars: The Force Awakens, J.
J. Abrams has returned the series back to its roots.
