There's a difference between a film's artistic merit and commercial appeal.

Grew up with starwars. Thought it was great.
But i dont dissect it and over think it. It was just done very well.
Those other prequels were terrible.

Yeah dude, I get that. I was getting more at behind every "cloud" there's a silver lining....

What he says is absolutely true. But its ****ing StarWars! Its just fun. A fantasy film.

What did you guys make of John Boyega's (the main black guy's) accent btw?

He's a Green Teef.

See, THIS I liked. In the prequels, all the action is choreographed, even Obi Wan when he sees Liam Neeson get taken. He's still doing that "I'm doing moves I've practised for months in front of a green screen" fighting. There's no soul in that, like there is in this one. The fact that both heroes are pretty crappy lightsabre fighters adds REALISM IMO. I mean, just compare the sterile, lifeless lightsabre battles of the prequels with the visceral action in the final Luke-Darth clash in Return of the Jedi:

5:58 makes the same point, rather hilariously

Those reviews are classic.
