JJ once again took the safe route and just remade and recycled a ton of the concepts and key moments that so many loved and remembered from the original trilogy more specifically empire and return of the jedi. Even with that said this is definitely the best of the new trilogy and the fan service makes it worth the ticket price. If you want to compare it to episode 8 this movie is way better than ruin Johnsons failed starwars movie and I feel bad for JJ having to pick up where ruin Johnson left off
