NJ Kids Movie Review: Star Wars: Episode Vii - The Force Awakens
Yes! In case you haven't heard, there's a new "Star Wars" movie in the galaxy, and it is awesome. This new installment takes place 30 years after the Rebel Alliance's victory over the second Death Star ("Return of the Jedi"). The galaxy is still at war, and a New Republic has arisen, but the First Order has sprung from the ashes of the Galactic Empire. Many of the heroes we all know and love - Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher), Han Solo (Harrison Ford), Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew), R2-D2 (Kenny Baker) and C-3PO (Anthony Daniels) - are still active and fighting in the Resistance. They're joined by new heroes, including Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac), a starfighter pilot; Finn (John Boyega), a former First Order Stormtrooper; Rey (Daisy Ridley), a scavenger; and a rolling droid known as BB-8. And of course, there are some new dark forces: Captain Phasma (Gwendoline Christie) of the First Order and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), a mysterious dark side user wielding a red lightsaber of unusual design.
