Review of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) by Kevin G — 05 Jan 2018
Close enough to Star Wars to feel like a Remake, but also fun enough to make the audience not care. The Force Awakens feels like a Star Wars movie to me. After nearly 40 years, there are certain things fans expect from a Star Wars movie, and The Force Awakens delivers them all with panache.
The new stars acquit themselves well, while Han and Chewie retaking the Falcon gets this guy's nostalgia tears running. All the callbacks to the OT are intentional. TFA is not supposed to be the saviour of Sci-Fi filmmaking.
.. it's only a vessel to take us back to our childhoood, and The Force Awakens has done that for me.
