-Some positives Visual effects were fine. No crop lines. deserves thanks for the effort
-Some negatives
As a Star Wars fan I have many disappointments.
First of all Im not sure if I have watched Star Wars or star Trek or a bollywood copy. Bad news for JJ.Abrahams that EP7 was not original and has no Star Wars mythology or its original culture in the movie. There is absolutely very poor ambiance all over it. Not majestic as we used to see in previous 6 chapters and was not memorable at all.
Story telling was also so weak that I thought movie was 6 hours and they had to shorten it in some point and delete the scenes to transform it into a standard space sci-fi movie. So drama seemed like all recorded in rush and jokes missplaced etc...
Acting was totally amateur and unsatisfying except Daisy Riley, Harrison Ford and BB8 (!which is an android). Cast didn't connected with the characters nor with audience.
If there was no Han solo there wouldn't be any Force Awakens at all. Harrison Ford carries all the movie himself and so final scenes were total mistake for the good of Star Wars.
Where the hell that Supreme Master came from, why the Kylo is in need of proofing himself, where the wisdom of the characters had gone?! Is there any story behind anything? if so, where is the story? Or is just a copy of episode IV ? I have to say that if George Lucas was in action we all would know about the connections or at least receive some hints, get excited and feel connected with Star Wars one more time.
J.J. Abrahams and Disney needs to remember that this is not any space movie, nor Star Trek. This is Star Wars and has its own culture, it's humble and no need to choke it with popular culture (unless you don't want to show the whole movie as just an add for whole themed toys) Also, I hope they do not use classic cheap action movie Hollywood humor next time. Sometimes they should remember that when the audience fills the sublines with their own understanding they may feel more excited and attached to a movie or a song. Trying to complete each comment and each joke with an extra effort like you describe it to an idiot, doesn't works well all the time. Star Wars audience are not American Pie generation.
