Best Episode, Ever
1 of 1 found this helpful Skipping high school to stand in line for hours to see the original Star Wars... oh, seven or eight times, I've been a fan of the series for ages, despite the movies' many obvious flaws. They weren't made to be believable, just fun. At least the first three (IV, V and VI) were. The next three (confusingly I, II and III) were, for the most part, made to bore, but that didn't stop me from seeing them, buying them and watching them repeatedly. Lucas just got too involved, I think, and needed to get away for his own sake.
Thank god J.J. Abrams was there to pick up the reins! I appreciate that he stuck with John Williams, even though I'm hardly a fan of his (some of his scores are some of the sappiest, most ridiculous melodies I've ever heard; other scores are magnificent, among the best of all time, so he frustrates the hell out of me). This is my favorite of all the Star Wars scores, by a lot.
Abrams removed the overblown melodrama (which worked in the first three, mostly because of the novelty of the series); there is actual acting in this movie! Well-written and acted characters, a ridiculous storyline--because it wouldn't be Star Wars without it--but a solid script with entertaining dialogue without wasting words; add to that terrific effects that don't whiz by in a blur so you can actually see what's going on, and you have one solid little SF action movie at a good price. My favorite Star Wars episode cost me half as much as books I, II and III did each.
