Star Wars: The Force Awakens 2015
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
The biggest nob in Britain is back to summarise the film in one word.
The more I think about Disney’s Star Wars films, the more I hate them. The sheer incompetence from the biggest film company in the world is baffling, and how Kathleen Kennedy kept her job for ten years after the fact is beyond me.
The Force Awakens demonstrates a complete lack of understanding and respect for the Star Wars franchise. It makes no effort to hide the fact…

Return of the Jedi 1983
"I am a Jedi, like my father before me."
Luke Skywalker is the embodiment of the good that was Anakin Skywalker. He is the product of Anakin's love with Padme, and he prevailed and resisted the dark side and the emperor when Anakin could not. He is the new hope that helped the chosen one destroy the Sith and bring balance to the force.
George Lucas's goofy Star Wars (which we see much more of in the prequels) starts here…

Halloween 1978
The acting is abysmal and the story is slower than the drive through Bow Street. I found Myers uninteresting, seeing as he does not speak, and has no motive other than he's evil. He just stands around breathing, and then strikes in the most predictable manner possible.
Perhaps in 1978 the nudity and murder was a shock, but nowadays the film really shows its age (a testament to our generation?)
The only good thing is that it's only 1 hour and 30 minutes long.

Forrest Gump 1994
This is one of those films that everyone MUST watch before they die. It's funny, it's sad, and it's most profoundly wise. The lessons taught here not only enlighten us on the second half of the twentieth century, bringing light to issues that most would rather leave swept under the rug, but it also teaches us invaluable lessons for life.
