Im tired, so I will be short. Loved the final 2 min, the movie was maybe a bit better than TFA and WTF was up with Vaders neck piece? It looked like he had a quadruple chin under the helemt. Why was it so damn wide and fat? Didnt look right. I need to see the movie again to really comment on more. But like Ive said in so many prior posts here, with many disagreeing, you have to view these movies with a filter. You have to view them as if you were a 7-13 yr old boy. Thus far, I havent heard one negative review from someone in that age range. Acting aside and story aside, if it entertains the child in us, or the child with us, then it succeeded. Thats just my opinion. As far as the CGI, I didnt really mind it. I think its cool we have the technology to resurrect a dead actor and look, sound and act like them. Maybe some kind of blur filter mightve helped hide some of the small flaws, but to a kid, they wont care or probably notice it. Could it have been written and executed better? Sure! We will probably never get back that feeling and awe we felt that first time we saw ANH. Well, those of us that saw it in 77-79 that is. A 7 yr old seeing ANH in 1977 is going to have a completely different perception of the film from a 7 yr old seeing it in 1988, and in turn that 7 yr olds perception will be different from one seeing it in 2000. I think each of us get a little bit something different out of each of these newer films. What excites one person may fall flat with another. We have to take the good with the bad and hope for the best in the next film. Me personally, the last 2 or 3 minutes was awesome! That alone was worth the price of admission.
