The Emperor has no clothes.

Rating: 5/10 (28 December 2015)

I have just seen the film, and jumping away from the hype and comparing it to Star Wars, I thought the film was rubbish. The storyline lacked an engaging structure, the characters were wooden and 2 dimensional and that includes the originals, I wasn't looking at Star Wars I was looking at a dystopian teen drama like Hunger Games etc. The effects were spectacular but with me that no longers sells a movie, as I have seen them all, as we all have, they have become routine, storyline is the most important, as it has been since story-telling began eons ago. This story was corny with absolutely no character or relationship building, everyone became instant best friends and were labeled good or bad. Its runaway success owes more to marketing and capturing the good and evil zeitgeist in the air at the moment and the almighty supposedly rebooted brand of the most famous of all movie franchises, which compelled us movie/ Star Wars/ lovers to have a look. It's success went from there. But in all the Emperor has no clothes.
