If you're a true fan of the franchise, just don't watch this

Rating: Null/10 (24 December 2015)

The best thing I could say about this movie, is that it has set itself up for a better sequel. I'm just going to go ahead and list my grievances, without giving anything away: -"Knowledge of the force" was a very important factor in how good a Jedi was at fighting over the first six movies. There was years of training, infinite hurdles. That all goes out the window. Apparently, anyone can beat a Sith lord. -The premise of the main characters, their motives and backgrounds, was so much less believable (even as a fictitious storyline). -The fight scenes were less like the epic battles of Episodes I, II, and III, and more like the fight between Obi-Wan and Vader. -The villain was so boring. Abrams didn't pull any brain muscles thinking him up. -The story altogether was extremely weak -Finally but most importantly, this was less of a sequel and more of a remake of Episode IV. I won't tell you how, but you'll see it.
Good things about this movie: -Stunning 3D visuals -The imperial starships are as cool as ever -Han Solo is still a boss
I want to tell readers to just go watch it with lowered expectations.. but there are no expectations low enough to make this movie a good watch. Just don't bother going
