Search found 1 match: Ewan McGregor

The reason that this is my favourite Star Wars film outside of Rey/Fin/Poe and the fast paced intense plot, is the acting. It's the best acted Star Wars film by a mile. The prequels had terrible dialogue so not that much could be done there (though Ewan McGregor tried), the originals are generally well acted but they are a bit dated and at times cheesy.

Here, things felt more modern and less silly (minus those CGI monsters trying to get on the Millenium Falcon). It's exactly what I'd hoped for in a Star Wars film. The next one I know will be slower paced but I have faith in it now.

And there has been an awakening, a bunch of casual fans like me are actually exploring Star Wars now, the video games, the Clone/Rebel Wars series, the books, etc.
