What Stars and Fans Are Saying about Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Writing for the NYTimes, Manohla Dargis lauds Abrams, a longstanding “Star Wars” fan, as the perfect choice to bring the series into the twenty first century: “Mr. Abrams may be as worshipful as any “Star Wars” obsessive, but in “The Force Awakens” he’s made a movie that goes for old-fashioned escapism even as it presents a futuristic vision of a pluralistic world that his audience already lives in. He hasn’t made a film only for true believers; he has made a film for everyone.” - Kate Muir of The London Times agrees with the sentiment, arguing that “while George Lucas came up with the brilliant idea, Abrams is a better action director, and takes ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ into more sophisticated territory.”
