Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.3|5.0 Starsìììì
Star Wars: Episode VII-The Force Awakens—introduces new villain Kylo Ren (Adam Driver)—retains Harrison Ford, Chewbacca, R2D2, CP30, Mark Hamill, and Carrie Fisher from earlier episodes of Stars Wars. The film’s new cast is not as strong or as charismatic as the original cast and this failure weakens the overall effect of the movie. The first five actors, Oscar Isaac, John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, an elderly man, and Adam Driver, need more force in their acting. It is not until the introduction of Harrison Ford that the movie begins to pick up strength and pace. However, the John Boyega performance does peak interest and deserves a closer watch in future performances. This movie is one of Director J. J. Abrams’ best works so far.
