Re: Episode VII - the Force Awakens

Imma copypaste the reiew I posted on NF...
Spoiler: show
Seen it.

I'm giving it a 9.5/10. The film was VERY entertaining, and VERY well done. The acting was perfect. Cinematography too. Everything feels like an AAA movie, like the best Holywood can do.

Love the new characters. Finn was the best character in this movie, imo. The others are pretty solid too. Kylo Ren gets annoying at some points, but he drives the point across. He feels legit, and threatening. The blonde general is minor, but he is pretty effective too.

My problem is two things: one is the deus ex machinas, mainly the R2D2 thing at the end (and to a lesser extent, Rey becoming a Jedi out of nowhere, though it has always been like that). Second, the plot feels like a repeat of A New Hope though, which isn't necessarily bad, but helps make it predictable when it shouldn't (like, I could see Han Solo's death a mile away).

But then I remember how Han Solo's death was fucking amazing and I can't hold a grudge against this film. It is pure, high-production value fun.

I just hope Rey doesn't turn out to be Luke's daughter, because I can also see that a mile away. Like, do something a little more original this time.

Also Finn being a Jedi would be awesome. The guy already proved he can be pretty badass with a light saber.

Re: Episode VII - the Force Awakens

Stormtroopers being lame has been a thing since the original films. It's pretty much a meme at this point.

Re: Episode VII - the Force Awakens

I just realized I have a mission: to rewatch all 6 Star Wars films in the next two months.

Oh, and also Back to the Future 2.

Mission Accepted.
