“Just like the thousands of Star Wars fans out there in the world, I was absolutely giddy when I heard that J.J. Abrams was taking the directoru0026#39;s helm for the seventh installment of George Lucasu0026#39;s beloved space opera. After I saw the Force Awakens, I was not sure how I felt about the movie. It has gotten so many rave reviews and I desperately wanted to feel the same way. After some time since its release and the adrenaline rush has worn out, I can honestly say that it was a big disappointment for me as a Star Wars fan. I will not get into the reasons as to why that is since the top reviews of Force Awakens do a superb job pointing out the flaws of that monstrosity.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSo anyhow, I went to see this film with low expectations because of my previous disappointment with the recent addition of the Star Wars franchise. Boy, was I wrong.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGareth Edwards puts the WARS in Star Wars unlike Iu0026#39;ve seen AND felt in the previous films. The dark and serious tone of the film makes you feel the rebelu0026#39;s fear of gruesome warfare as they fight against the more well- equipped and ruthless Empire. At one point, the film was reminiscent of WWII films due to its excellent portrayal of battle scenes. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe acting and dialogue was for the most part well done, and the comic reliefs in the film did not feel as forced as *ahem FORCED Awakens.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe director also does an excellent job connecting the prequels and the original series together. If a viewer sees the series in the numbered order with this film, the story line will play out seamlessly.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd lastly, Darth Vaderu0026#39;s scenes in the film definitely adds a terrifying legacy to his name. I will not spoil the scenes for you, but he portrays ruthlessness here that was not seen in the other films. The viewer will have a better grasp as to why he is such a feared character in the universe.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eJ.J. Abrams diminished my love for Star Wars. This film has brought back hope in me for the franchise once more as Jyn Erso has done with the rebels.”
