Lacks Strong Vision/Story

Rating: 4/10 (20 December 2019)

Negatives: This movie felt like a stitched together collage of various fan service moments at break neck speeds. There was no time to settle into characters or develop their stories properly. New characters injected into the story served no purpose to the overall story. It felt like a vacuum pulling the scenes towards a black hole where no light comes out of it. The story felt like it could have been written by anyone and the script gave no of the actors real human moments like past movies. Too much comedy and not enough fleshed out dramatic or character world building moments. Rey and Kylo Ren have too much force powers and isn't reasonability explained. The explanations fell flat and didn't make a whole lot of sense. Finn and Poe didn't have much of a role to the plot. Finn is always hollering "Rey". They inserted so much stuff in the movie that it can no longer fit its pants. The fights were okay with nothing sticking out.
Pros: visuals/CGI
