Review: This is the 2nd best movie in the whole Star Wars saga. Let’s start off with the positives . The movie has a great script with a humour it . The visuals were stunning with practical effects and minimal usage of CGI. The movie does have a really good cinematography. The score from John Williams bring so much nostalgia to the film. The performances were absolutely great and it felt real. Kylo Ren is the best villain we got this year, the character has many layers which makes the villain compelling. The movie had breathtaking action scenes and the 2nd best lightsaber duel in the saga .

Recommendation: In the end Star Wars: TFA is the sequel people have been asking for so many years and it lives to its hype .
