Star Wars Review

Well where can I begin? on the day after its release, the college took us to see the new Star Wars film "The Force Awakens" episode 7. I had seen the other films and thoroughly enjoyed them so was up to date with the story and had a bit of skepticism whether the film would live up to its name or not.
Personally I think they did a great job on the film, the special effects were fantastic and the story was paced just right and really caught me off-guard with the ending. I thought at first I would hate Kylo-Ren's new lightsaber but it actually worked really well giving him an advantage over other sabers and I also love the new BB-8 when I thought I wouldn't like him either (R2 is still better though).

 The only thing that really grinded on me was that they reused so many old ideas such as how BB-8 holds key infomation like R2D2 in "A New Hope" and how the important child is sent of to a faraway desert planet until they are old enough to fulfill their destiny. And how that stupid stormtrooper started off that annoying TRAITOR! meme. Nothing too bad just a little off-putting.
              I think my favourite character was Han Solo, even after all these years Harrison Ford still portrays his character excellently and he was badass with chewy's crossbow.  but he's dead! so I'll have to pick another one. Probably Captain Phasma because she is pretty much the only woman stormtrooper which is awesome and looks amazing in that white and chrome armor (plus she plays Gwen in Game of Thrones added bonus).

 All in all it was amazingly done by Disney (despite people saying it was going to be awful) I just hope for some more original storytelling and more crazy new sith lords!
