With that, despite some reservations I enjoyed the original three films.<br /><br />I also felt a lot of nostalgia in the lead up to this movie. I thought that this film was good in many ways but disappointing in others. I thought that really was two much of a carbon copy of the original. On the other hand it had its moments.

One or two of them have als read the book and also found that enjoyable.<br /><br />I am not a huge fan of Ian McKellan, although I can imagine his own personality fits well with that of the character of Holmes, which would be enough to see me pay out for this film. Definitely my favourite 'must see' one from your selection :)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing.<br /><br />YvonneYvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-50110204952789955652016-07-04T20:47:25.735+01:002016-07-04T20:47:25.735+01:00Totally loved SW!

While I enjoyed the original (episode 4), I was always more of a Trekkie. I saw the three prequels when they came out, but never got around to watching The Return of the Jedi or The Empire Strikes Back (which my children would tell you were the best films of all) - therefore I skipped this one, feeling I might not know what was going on. <br /><br />Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859017153454691633noreply@blogger.com
