 so the original trilogy was great then their prequels came out then they sucked but then disney bought lucas films and jj abrams is behind the camera to give us another film and star wars the force awakens i'm brandy keith abry and this is just my opinion so we've been waiting a long time for star wars to come back we didn't know if it was ever going to come back but now it did out of nowhere and we had to wait three years and now it's back and with the main characters we have john boyega playing fin and daisy really playing ray and i love them both they are both completely opposite but they have so much chemistry on screen and that was probably the better part of the film i love ray's character initially as soon as you saw her you knew she was a strong female character she was a grinder she was a hustler she's just doing what she has to do to survive and then fin he's just trying to live his life he's just trying to do the right thing but sometimes shows the wrong path and i think we all can relate to that another great thing about this film is everybody is back from the original cast plus we have new characters and new joists that we have to get to know too and i like how the film bounced back and forth while you're getting to know those characters and didn't stay too focused on one for a long period of time now one thing that was horrible about the prequels is it was so much CGI it was a CGI fist just a CGI vomit factor when all over all the sets and all over the camera and it just didn't make those films that good but you don't have to worry about that now director jj abrams took his time and planned everything out to give us as many practical effects as he possibly could now of course there was a lot of CGI in this film all the practical effects work for me but not all the CGI there was some CGI that was a little cartoonish and it didn't work but that was only in a few aspects of the film and didn't ruin the whole thing for me as far as the villain is concerned color and played by adam driver i loved him to death he was a badass villain and no he's not just another Darth Vader he is his own incarnation of evil and i think he did a great job with the role i loved his costume i loved his new tricep I loved him playing with the force he did a great job and he was a noble threat and did his thing he represented for the dark side as far as the whole story is concerned i thought it was okay the plot within the story was executed much better than the overall story if you just sit back and look at the whole thing i kind of wanted a little bit more it's kind of on a man hunt to find someone or something and i really wanted a little bit more out of the story but that doesn't mean that it's a bad thing i mean it's a great plot especially towards the beginning of the film or the first half of the film you know what's going on you're following everything everything is flowing smoothly and you can't wait for it to get to the end some things that are hard to pull off in the film are comedic moments during serious times and the film did a great job with that especially with John Boyoga's character Finn he wasn't cracking jokes but he was able to give you real life reactions to whatever situation he was in and it was genuine and it was pure and it made me laugh i mean there was a lot of funny moments in this film the only bad thing is towards the end of the film those funny moments started coming on a little too much hitting me over the head i wanted his character to take things a little bit more seriously it's not that he wasn't taking things seriously it's just that it didn't flow with the film as smooth as it could something else that i loved about the film was just how they introduce all the characters from the past that you know i mean everything was great i don't want to spoil it for you here but just the way that the editing and the camera were pan around to show certain characters that we love in the past i really did like that it had a nice touch to it as far as the action is concerned i learned pretty much all of that it was really great the effects were nice there was perfect continuity in all the battles and there was some real-life stakes out there i mean they did crank things up a hell of a notch from the original trilogy that we have in the new trilogy and i like that a lot now i am a casual Star Wars fan i am not a diehard star wars fan i cannot name every plan in every system and every type of ship i have seen the original trilogy i have seen the prequels which i did not like i saw the clone wars movie half of it and maybe two or three episodes of the clone wars but as far as all the books and all the video games and the lore i am not too familiar with it now of course everybody wants this film to be perfect and is it perfect no it's not perfect but it is definitely much better than those prequels some of the complaints that i have about the film is towards the end of the film they got a little too jokey and serious and at the same time they kind of rehash some of the things that worked in the original trilogy and tried to redo that in this new trilogy there also wasn't a good balance of power in the force some people are just now coming into age versus someone has been trained for quite a long time and with their battling it should be no context but they were kind of neck and neck and i really can't buy that but overall guys it was a great film i love pretty much all of it it's not a perfect film but not too many films out there are perfect if i had to rate this film out of a one out of ten i would give it an eight out of ten but guys that is just my opinion what did you think have you seen star wars the force awakens yet have i turned
