An excellent movie lacking some details.

Rating: 9/10 (18 December 2015)

THE GOOD: This movie is an amazing attempt by Disney to revive the franchise. I find it has a very similar feel to 4-6 rather than 1-3. I love that they are easing the old story arch into the new story arc rather seamlessly. They did a great job at taking advantage of the advancement of the characters age (Han solo, Luke Skywalker, etc.). The storm-troopers were much more human and gave off a really cool Nazi vibe. The movie ended on a perfect note and there were certain parts where I really wanted to cry from nostalgia.
Kylo Ren: I actually liked his character. He seems like a troubled young man who has lost his way. A part of me hopes he doesn't become the unsung hero though and rather dies at the hands of the JEDI. He seems like sort of a wimp towards the end but I believe that is because of the emotional distress that he went through towards the end of the movie. Plus he is still learning.
REY: She is amazing. She rejected the force at first but fought through adversity. Discovering her powers at the most crucial point in the movie. FINN: I love how he is a storm-trooper turned good. He puts some humanity into the whole thing. The first scene he is in is one of the most memorable. The scene almost made me cry a tear of sorrow for storm-troopers. They have never felt so human.
The Bad: There isn't much that is bad about this movie except maybe the fact that there really isn't much background into the whole ordeal. I would have liked a bit more plot and a little less story. If that makes any sense at all. You didn't get much information on the republic at all, or the state of the Empire. it is hinted at but not explained. I think maybe they were waiting for the other movies to do that though.
