I'm not baised but most of thr movies was thr took parts of the old star wars movies and put together to make this it was off got boring at times not enough actions . Overhyped period. Grt some originality no need to cut and paste from other movies and please feed these kids look frail as a villain and jedi. Humor good at times but it's star wars should be more serious film.

My husband and just saw this movie tonight. I saw that it rated a 8.7 so it has to be good right? if your old like me and went to the 1977 Star Wars movie over and over again you will see that basically it's the same movie with a splash of empire strikes back and a varied subplot. Harrison ford was excellent and Po and Finn were very likeable. There were a lot of funny jokes. However, these movie does not deserve the hype it is getting. I wish i had waited for the DVD. In a word totally predictable. In fact i pretty much figured out the storyline of the next three movies.

I see a lot of complaints that the plot is derivative. Bah humbug - ggod guys go up against bad guys - what are you expecting?
I thought the new leads were charismatic and did a great job. Lots of humor, and Harrison Ford really brought back that old Original Trilogy charm.
If I had one negative about the viewing experience, it would not be with the movie itself, but all the freaking commercials before it started. Be prepared to stomach a good 20-plus minutes of ads for cars, cellphones, gum, batteries, and other assorted nonsense.

I liked the story, the quality of acting and technical quality. All top rate.
I did not like that there was not more Jedi action. I would have preferred more of Luke Skywalker, and more of the wisdom of the Jedi.

I'm so sorry to say that this movie only rates 2 stars in my opinion, The story line is just not up to the hype and expectations we all had. The actors do the best they can with a very weak story line. The effects are good, but that's about it.

The movie was awesome even if you are not a star wars fan. JJ should have made the movie a bit longer, 2hr and 40 minute would have been my ideal time ;)
It sure isn't the best movie of all time, but its not like this is the last star wars, there will be plenty more to come, so we shouldn't rate bad just because the story looks similar to the original movie, think of it like a TV show, more will be made. I am a hardcore movie fan, I love the movie but they could have made a few things way better. If Ledger can perform great as the joker, other actors should do the same for movies like these. Worth seeing the movie of course :)

A good production and a return to the former Stars Wars glory.
There are some issues with the story, such as the very dry relationship between Han and Leia (though it is somewhat explained during the movie), the C3PO's red arm (seriously in that age and technological advancement it is hard to believe they couldn't find a replacement of the same colour).
Script is quite good, action scenes are well done, lighting proves impressive and cinematography is solid.
All in all, this new installment will not disappoint.
