Although Abrams is of course nowhere near Spielberg's level of being able to construct shots. But generally speaking, that's not really necessary for a SW movie. SW always looked very static in terms of staging... almost no dolly moves, no crane shots, no complex steadycam work. Kershner brought some of that into Empire, but that's pretty much it. ILM did a lot more of that stuff for the spaceship shots.
