Doesn't even feel like Star Wars

Rating: 1/10 (17 May 2020)

Disney completely ruined Star Wars but especially with this movie. Everything contradicts itself and the storyline makes absolutely no sense. For example: the fact that they brought back Palpatine. Palpatine was supposed to be destroyed by Anakin (Darth Vader) to bring back balance to the force. Was supposed to, until Disney and J.J. Abrams completely ruined it.
I feel like J.J. Abrams and all the other directors (but mostly him) didn't know the first thing about Star Wars, all the movies came out back to back and made no sense, and barely took any time to make. He made it into something it wasn't, like a whole different series. I felt like J.J. Abrams viewed making these movies as a job, not a passion, like George Lucas. There was no story line it was just constant lightsaber fights and action and you never really got into it. This movie is more for little kids. You never got attached to the characters (unless they were from the original movies) due to the lack of a storyline. The least they could have done would put Jon Favreau (who did an excellent job with the Mandalorian) in charge or Dave Filoni who actually knew what they were doing and would not have ruined Star Wars. I suppose it is all set in stone now sadly.
Another issue I had was that they took the whole idea of the force and made it into something it wasn't. They used it like a magical spell that could just do anything anytime you want and it made no sense. It felt like I was watching a new Harry Potter or Ghost Busters movie not Star Wars. Speaking of it not feeling like a Star Wars movie, there was practically no aliens or different species. I know this is a little thing, but it got on my nerves, everybody was a human and that just made it feel even more like a Star Trek movie or something. They even went so far to make it seem like a whole new series that there were no planets from the original movies it was all new.
Rey was obnoxious and overdramatic (like the whole movie) I liked the whole idea of Kylo Ren and Adam Driver. I feel like if he was the last Jedi it would have been much better. I feel as though the only reason they made Rey the last Jedi was because of political correctness, they did not actually care about the story line.
The bottom line is, it does not feel like a Star Wars movie. There is absolutely no nostalgia or Star Wars feel. Everything is new and J.J. Abrams did not care about the storyline, he obviously did not care about anything when he made this movie and totally winged it. He just wanted his money and did not want to put any hard work or passion into this. He took the fundamentals of Star Wars and crushed it. But hey, atleast people can teleport using the force now.
