The new Star wars. 4/10
To me it was a rewrite of the 40 year old original. How many times they going to blow up a death star like thing? Instead of boy from a desert planet it's a girl this time. Etc. A Emo Darth Vader wanna be who looks like he should be the ugly kid in one of the Twilight movies.
Best part was I Saw it in one of the theaters that have the Cini-suites. Big comfy recliners, a cute waitress, decent food, and Drinks!. A margarita and and 2 beers got the movie the bonus point.
I agreed with everything thing you said
except..............
But I loved it , after the awful prequels , I thought this was just what Star Wars needed , , yea , the story was familiar , but the story is following just one family basically , the Skywalker family , so the story is not going to change a whole lot anyways
It was like when Disney was first going to make new Star Wars movie , they sent out a check list to like a thousand fans and asked , what do you want to see in the new Star Wars reboot, and they took the top 10 or 15 votes getters and made a movie out of it
X-Wings and Tie Fighters , check
Millennium Falcon , check
A bad guy that was more like Darth Vader , check
Luke , Han , Leia and Chewy , check
Storm Troopers that can actually shoot , check
Practical Sets , check
etc, ect ,ect
This movie looked like it was made using a check list , .............................and I loved it , but it did look like a quick and easy beginning to something bigger to come
which is why I can't wait till Episode VIII
