Who are these critics anyway? The circle is now complete! I was there to see the first Star Wars film in 1977. Episode ix may seem a little heavy on pleasing the fans with homage to previous Star Wars movies, but that's okay. Through the years we held on to hope that the Lucas vision of three trilogies would eventually be made and we would still be here to see them. I loved this movie...a real fan would. Go see it, may the Force be with you always!
