Now, I’ve seen this movie once or twice before, but I’m saying that this is my first time truly paying attention to it. For someone who didn’t grow up with this franchise, I don’t understand how easily this film embodies comfort like a warm blanket. Like a nice cup of hot chocolate. It’s seriously like stepping into a storybook. Like I don’t know you bro, why do I feel so happy and nostalgic? My only guess is that it’s John Williams’ score that makes me feel at home. Star Wars is an obvious one, but honestly, it reminded me more of Home Alone. It’s the type of music that tugs at your heart strings. What a wonderful start to what I’ve heard is an amazing series! I’m so excited to get into it.
