Movie was a lot of fun, no doubt, and certainly very high production values....
...but, am I the only one who felt the whole thing was recycled? I don't mean the obvious continuity-of-storyline stuff or the original characters. I'm talking about just about every single plot element being a damn-near direct copy of previous movies (primarily Ep IV, but shades of V & VI, too); even all the supposedly "new" characters were carbon-copies of their predecessors....
Disappointing. Enjoyed the movie, and it could totally suck and still be a blockbuster just because of its pedigree--but, the story writers phoned it in....
