JJ Abrams ruined it... again

Rating: 4/10 (21 December 2015)

I went to the cinema with an absolute open mind, after hearing/seeing all the hype around the SW7 release on the other hand seen how Abrams kind of ruined star trek.
I came out of the cinema with a split personality opinion.
Opinion 1: As an average cinema viewer I was entertained and I liked the visual experience especially in 3D... I would call it a good big screen popcorn flick! But I didn't got the desire to watch it again, I also believe the experience could be worst if I watch it at home in a "normal" environment.
Opinion 2: As a star wars fan and scifi lover, I was very confused at first but the longer the movie went on, the worst it got and reminded me of a typical JJ Abrams rip off in the end, very similar to how Abrams ripped off Star Trek in the end.
I think most of the problem lies with the writers that Abrams choose. This movie feels like a bad 21st century rip off of SW4 where everything has to be bigger, louder and of course extra artificial drama! There is nearly no real connection to SW6 and a lot of key elements or characters make NO sense and feel completely made up to create up some kind of story, typically Abrams who used the same approach in star trek. I don't understand the character Rey who comes out of nowhere, has no connection with any other character and her history is also completely unclear, but she is the one that becomes the hero (by accident) and knows how to use the force without any training or mentoring. The character Finn makes no sense at all... He says at some point, that he was the janitor, but was a storm trooper that couldn't do his job and decided to turn against the empire/first order. Also i thought that he was a clone (engineered to be the perfect soldier) and how is he the first of millions if not billions storm troopers that all of a sudden turns against the empire? And then he fights the darth vader copy without real fighting skills or jedi knowledge. All of the first order characters made me mad!!! Why is the new "darth vader" character wearing a mask and why changes its voice?? The mask has no purpose other then trying to look more badass and be a darth vader copy... Whats up with that giant imperator that is called snoke and is only seen in holographs and looks like a character from The Lord of the Rings?? Is there any connection with him and any of the other movies?? And then we have the Death star 2.0... Jesus really??
I think either Hollywood doesn't care anymore and just tries to milk every $$$ from the audience and spent most money in marketing instead of great writers or Hollywood isn't capable of making a truly a great masterpiece anymore. But I don't believe that! I think the fault is with Abrams, he is a mediocre director which should have never got the job to make either Star Wars or Star Trek. Recently watching The Martian, I believe somebody like Ridley Scott or maybe Christopher Nolan should have been directing this movie!
What surprises in the end is... Didn't George Lucas already wrote the story for Star Wars 7, 8 and 9?? Couldn't the writers use what Lucas already had planned or maybe work together with him to get a great story?
In the end I can say that Episode 1-3 were better then this movie, because they were at least original even though JarJar was a pain in the ...
