Synopsis: A triumphant return to a a galaxy far, far away - and one that seemed further away after the prequels - is thrillingly directed by reboot maestro J.J. Abrams.

Set three decades after the events of RETURN OF THE JEDI, with Luke Skywalker nowhere to be seen, a new threat has arisen, and the aging resistance is once more pressed into action.

“a state-of-the-art throwback, both retro and post-modern in its self-awareness. It doesn't just know that it's operating in the long shadow of a classic; it hardwires that understanding into its own DNA, making legacy a prevailing theme.”~A.A. Dowd, The A.V. Club

3 stars (Good Enough) They fitted a new engine and tyres, tightened up the steering, polished the wood and chrome, took off the embarrassing fluffy dice and hood ornament. But it's still just a fairly basic family saloon. ~HiFi

2 stars (Good Try) The special effects and make up people do well as usual. Not much originality in the screenplay - it differs little from many other space action films. Beep Beep gives the best performance. ~Tubbs
