Derivative, Tedious & Preposterous

Rating: 3/10 (24 December 2015)

Probably the last Star Wars movie I'll ever bother seeing! What can I add to the disappointment many others have expressed. You could drive a truck thru the plot holes and continuity problems. Nothing original at all, just recycled stuff from other movies. No matter how large and convoluted the venue, the characters always find each other in the nick of time. The faster than light reaction shot of Leia the instant Solo dies so far away was jarring and inexplicable. I also want to know how the rest of the team made it across a 300 or 400 foot gap to meet Rey when she climbs the last 10 feet of the wall! As others have noted, Storm Troopers still can't shoot, although X-Wings manage to shoot STs standing 10 feet from the good guys. And, by the way, if the mission is to capture Rey and the Droid intact, blowing the hell out of the building is not the most dependable approach!
