J.J. Abrams, the director of Star Wars: The Force Awakens had a pretty serious job ahead of him.  In directed the latest Star Wars movies he had to manage to invigorate the franchise, while not alienating long-time fans of the movie.

I’ve discussed this point and more below in my first video review.  It’s a feature that I tend to explore more in future, particularly for bigger movies.

That being said, overall Abrams did a good job, but it’s not perfect.
