5 Reasons Why Star Wars: The Force Awakens is the Best in the Trilogy

A Strong Balance Cast

The cast of Star Wars: The Force Awakens combined both young up coming actors with old, seasoned veterans from the original series. Harrison Ford, Carie Fisher and Mark Hamill bring a nostalgic dimension to the movie that appeals to the giant loyal fan base of Star Wars. Star Wars has always been a series about intergenerational torch passing, about the complicated relationships between parents and children, and about how the Force flows strongly in certain family trees. Just seeing the lines on Ford's face expresses this idea better than any dialogue ever could.
