7/10
Contains enough nostalgia and CGI to get a 7/10, but thats all
27 December 2015
Thousands of reviews already, from haters and lovers of the film while the film makes tons (literaly) of money.

For us in our late 40s, it was a good nostalgic rehash of the original with excellent CGI and locations. We all left the theater satisfied about this. But after the smoke cleared out, we were left with disappointment.

Rethinking of the film uncovers its serious flaws: no memorable music, no story depth whatsoever, no silent moments, no time to train but still everybody can fight even against sith lords.

Cinematography is astonishing but this is a reboot clearly targeted to younger audiences for money-grabbing reasons. J.J is good at what he does, so if the prequels where directed by him they would stand out far better than this.

May the force be with us on the next two ones.
