Good movie, reused plot, lame villain.

Rating: 6/10 (15 August 2016)

To really understand this film and my review I would encourage everyone to watch the other Star Wars movies. If you already have or you're just a rebel, keep reading.
This was not a bad movie in the least, but I was gracious with the rating I gave it. Why? Let me first tell you what I like about it.
The graphics and CGI were great. The return of the original cast was very much appreciated and widely received. The script was decent and the main actress Daisy Ridley (Rey) was an unknown but turned out to be a fairly good actress.
Here are some of the things that needed to be worked on:
1. The villain. Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) was a lame villain. In the beginning he was somewhat mysterious and scary but about a quarter way in he removed his helmet. And for what reason!? To intimidate the audience? Hate to break it to you but IT DIDN'T WORK. As soon as that helmet came off I was like 'How did that small helmet fit on his huge head?' and 'Was there a different, more talented actor under the helmet?' Then came the temper tantrums. OH MY GOSH. How old is this guy? And why is he destroying his space ship with his light saber??? Is he like 5? Then, trying to sell that he was afraid of being weaker than Darth Vader was just ludicrous. I actually laughed when he beat his side at the end of the movie. Is that supposed to HELP??? This is the weakest Star Wars villain I have ever seen. The old villains were scary. This guy is a five year old with daddy issues and a light saber.
2. Was smeagol the Supreme Leader Snoke?
3. Rey. OK, so I do like her to an extent. As I mentioned above she is pretty good actress. However, I do NOT like her relationship with Finn (John Boyega). They had no chemistry and no interest it seemed with one another. It was pretty ridiculous to put them together in my opinion.I wish that relationship would end. Quickly. Also, at the end of the movie she had more force that Luke Skywalker ever did in the old movies. This was quite irritating. You can't tell me that without any training she is that powerful. Implying that she is part of the family is a LAME excuse to do this. All in all, Rey should have been given a little more thought.
4. Everything about Finn.
5. Talking the whole time about finding Luke Skywalker and then only seeing him turn around and pause for an eternity.
6. The reused plot. It's basically a bigger death star. No originality.
There are other things, but these are the main things that stuck out to me. I hope you enjoy this movie if you see it.
