DML Rating: ★★★★★★★★☆☆ - great

"I used to wonder about that myself. Thought it was a bunch of mumbo jumbo. A magical power holding together good and evil, the dark side and the light. Crazy thing is... it's true. The Force, the Jedi. All of it. It's all true." - Han Solo

Why watch this? The big moment, by a mile, was the return of Han and Chewy. So... Damn... Awesome!

Plot Summary: Three decades after the Galactic Empire's collapse, a new tyrannical force known as the First Order seeks to dominate the galaxy and eliminate the last remaining Jedi Master, Luke Skywalker. A young scavenger named Rey, a rogue stormtrooper named Finn, and a Resistance pilot named Poe Dameron find themselves drawn into the conflict when they encounter a droid carrying a vital piece of a map to Skywalker's whereabouts.

Dad's Preview: Episode VII succeeds in setting up a new trilogy. We all knew at the time that most of the original cast members were still alive and kicking, and we're like "C'mon folks, let's do this!" Here we see all three. Luke, Han and Leia, together again. Well, that is not quite what happened, but it was teased that it was GOING to happen. The new kids (Rey, Finn, Poe) are compelling enough. The rest of the trilogy was a disappointment, but this effort gave us a little new hope.
