FUCK.
I laughed. I cried. I got genuine, bona-fide chills. I cheered. I wanted to leap in the air and hug every human, droid, and alien in the vicinity. STAR WARS isn't just back, but fully expanded and revitalized. It's a genuine spectacle with enough history and operatic energy to fill every STAR WARS fan with undiluted glee and vicious emotion.
I now believe in aliens, because JJ Abrams somehow convinced them to revive the essential spirit of the original STAR WARS trilogy. I don't know how you did it you crazy fuck, but somehow, this was everything that I wanted it to be and more.
Chewie, we're home.

Review by davidehrlich ★★★½ 34

first things first, BB-8 should be in every movie ever made. i understand that certain legal and logistical realities might make that difficult, but that's your problem. i'm sure disney's lawyers are perfectly reasonable people.
BB-8 is the best character in the whole fucking galaxy. omg what if he's a death star??? what if somewhere in space there's a GIANT BB-8 ADORABLE DEATH STAR??? save us, colin trevorrow, you're our only hope. honestly, i would have been much more on board with Ex Machina if it was a turing test with BB-8. i care about BB-8. i love BB-8. and that shit is *legal.* all those "if you can marry a man, what's to stop you from marrying a dog?"…

I've felt euphoria that I have never felt before. I laughed. I cried. I cheered. I have officially lived life. I will never forget this moment.
J.J. Abrams has created something truly special. Star Wars: The Force Awakens might just be the greatest theater experience I have ever had. I was on Cloud 9. Magic was happening before my eyes. J.J. Abrams, I cannot thank you enough.
Daisy Ridley...Daisy Ridley...DAISY RIDLEY! I am going to name my first-born daughter Rey. I am also going to marry Daisy Ridley. Don't try and stop me.
Finn is fucking man. The chemistry between him and Rey was phenomenal. You could tell John Boyega was so excited to be in this movie.
Poe Dameron…

95/100
"I know all about waiting. For my family. They'll be back, one day...."
This is when I broke down. The loss and aching emptiness. A world with no respect for beginnings and an environment with no evolution after the desolation of the past. A confused, sweltering galaxy held together by children of trauma, running away yet always trying to get conformed back into normalcy. The pinky, fading horizons lead to adventures of glowing hope; a fluid expanse of the laborous ruts of a post-war generation.
This is my Star Wars.
Review by Todd Gaines ★★★½ 74

J.J. goes all fanboy and creates a Star Wars movie that appears to be ripped from a wet dream of a Jedi Sith Cosplay Fanatic. He gives us a fresh-face cast, brings back some old, and when I say old; I mean old; familiar faces, uses some practical effects, and tells a story that's quite Star Wars-esque. On paper, I should be dancing like a drunk Ewok, but I'm not quite ready to do the Jedi Boogie. Hell, I grew up on Star Wars. At least the original flicks. I'll gladly give the middle finger to the trilogy about Padmé Amidala's baby daddy's journey to the Dark Side. That's not my cup of tea. I have no clue why I…

it’s a lot of fun
Review by Baby Man Little Baby Man ★★½

Nostalgia bait. This movie is really sad to return to considering none of these plot points ended up mattering at all. It’s ok. Bland.
Review by Dylan ★★★½

Took me a few viewings for me to actually enjoy this first entry into the new Star Wars series. Not great compared to the prequels and the orignal saga, but a good moderen day Star Wars film

Review by dempsterious ★★★★

The originals are my favourite films of all time and might always be.
This film was good...... the cinematography (very understated), score and performances all make sure that pretty much everything that they attempt is pulled off really well and makes for constant re watches and enjoyability.
The new characters fit in very well due to some original, comedic yet heartfelt dialogue.
However the fact that this narrative Mirrors a new hope is not a fact to forget about and is possibly the reason everything works so well.
Review by KRausch ★★★

Had great potential, but the plot was very unoriginal and there were many plot holes, but it offered a good jumping off point for the sequel trilogy.
Review by Kylo_Hen ★★★★

Great film, but too much is taken from A New Hope. Could have been better and is quite forgettable but it really is a joy to watch.
