Why the hate?

Rating: 10/10 (3 January 2020)

I don't understand why people says it's a bad movie. It follows what the original trilogy has set up : the conflict between the light side and the dark side, Skywalker vs Palpatine. I can see why people might say that it lacks a bit of originality. VII is kind of like IV, VIII like V and IX like VI. But Rey has true character development throughout the trilogy and the surprise that she was a Palpatine was good twist. And to see that she finally got someone back from the dark side shows that she grew strong with the force. Yes, there's new things we see that the force can do, it shows us that the characters have mastered the force beyonf what we knew (Yes, Yoda was strong, but maybe not the strongest). A lot people hate this movie because there a lot of new things, but at the same time, the hate the movie because it takes some existing elements from the previous movies. I just don't understand. If you're close-minded, yes, every new film will be bad.
Maybe this film doesn't deserve a 10/10, but it deserves clearly at least a 6/10. Maybe you can be disappointed, but don't let that clouds your sense of criticism. If the story wasn't as good as you thought it would be, a lot of other elements makes up for it : music, production design, costume, cinematography, visual effects, sound effects, etc. It can't be a 1/.
