Well I am going to say I LOVED IT! Perhaps my expectations were lower given what happened with the Phantom Menace and the huge expectations I had then.

I thought the script was almost entirely original with a generous amount of nods to Ep IV and a few from V and VI. I didn't think that was over the top by any means and it catered to us older fans.

I am highly recommending this to my friends, with a proviso that they need to see it before they find out [SPOILER] - Kylo Ren is Han and Leia's kid, the force user is Rey and not Finn and Han's own kid kills him!

I had an idea in my head of who the characters were and how I expected things to play out.... i was totally off and that made the experience even more enjoyable. If you haven't seen it yet and you are reading this page, stop immediately and go and watch it!
