A gorgeous disappointment.

Rating: 6/10 (31 December 2015)

Star Wars: The Force Awakens was an auditory and visual masterpiece. Unfortunately it was ruined by poor acting, poor actor choice, and a story that felt rushed and didn't make much sense when taking into account the previous movies and the lore of the series as a whole.
I will now briefly list a few of this movie's most glaring issues: First of all, Kylo Ren just isn't as intimidating with his mask off. Secondly, When did Rey and Finn learn how to use a lightsaber? Thirdly, Luke lost his father's lightsaber in The Empire Strikes Back. And Finally, way too many potentially interesting characters were introduced all at once, giving the main characters not enough screen time to make me actually care about them.
All in all, an absolutely beautiful sandwich that doesn't taste nearly as good as it looks or smells.
