if people asked me is it good i would say yes it is. something tht has not been said about star wars since the first 3, but the reason why i cant say its great or rate higher is it is not without flaws.
its almost like they had a guide line of things to do like the original and they stuck to it. the android to replace r 2d2, rey to replace princess lea ,the first guy to replace solo etc. then they basiclly ripped of the entire story of the original. the bridge scene was extremly lazy i can understand the rest but that was too far of a riip of and a terrible ending for the best character
the guy who played what is basically the new darth was terrible. seriously who cast that guy as a villian. he was more like a posh buy in a play than a darth character. poor choice.
overall its the 4th best one after the first 3., they done a great job keeping the movie close to the originals in style and look which is how sequels and revamps should do. but what stops this movie being great is the poor story.,and rip of nature of it
also harrison ford wasn't great in this. check out the scene as he tries to escape shortly after we see him very poor acting.
plus all the hype of luke in this movie and he wasn't in it. so dont expect to see more than a glimpse.
its good but lets be honest its sneaky as hell. the second movie will be the decider if this has legs or not..
good movie but only because of the original
