OMG it's mediocre Star Wars: The Mary Sue Awakens!

Rating: 1/10 (3 July 2016)

I waited for it come out on home rental markets; for that I am grateful I had the foresight to do so. I WAS BORED OUT OF MY FRIGGIN' MIND!!!.
Here's the good points: good action sequences, sound and noise crew did a fantastic job and set design. A thumbs up for the special effects and Kylo Ren stopping a blaster shot in mid air. Now for the bad points:

MISSED OPPORTUNITY: Han Solo (Harrison Ford), Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) and Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) they never together in a single scene. What the HELL!!! It has been rumoured that director JJ Abrams and his team of writers wanted to audience to focus on the new character. And they had absolutely no idea what to do with Luke Skywalker that they his appearance at the end with no dialogue? Because they feared audiences would focus on Luke and not the new character. An iconic character and legendary Jedi Master is reduced to a cameo because they lacked the balls and imagination to let Mark Hamill be Luke? Shame on you Disney.
SCRIPT: lazy writing of the dialogue and plot. The lack lustre plot is a direct plagiarism of A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. There is no original thought of a new story- it's wasted opportunity to individualise The Force Awakens. Nothing is explained about the First Order, no exposition to the audience on how the Star Destroyer was built without anyone knowing about it. But hey, read about it in the novels, comics etc. Sadly, it is ,obviously, a Disney production of a movie that has $$$ for merchandise, capitalising on the nostalgia of the Star Wars movies- A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.
ORIGINALITY: forget originality for interesting aliens creatures. Costumes (Han is wearing the same clothes as in SW4. Ray is dressed like in flowing feminine clothes in the desert planet Arrakis, sorry I mean Tatooine,er sorry Jakku. It's amazing she has not been overpowered and/or stunned by raiders and sexually violated and/or sold as a sex slave. Her costume should be a practical and hide her curses, like Arya Stark in Game of Throne . AND can we please have a strong female lead character like Ahsoka Tano in The Clone Wars?. Bare bones of any character are and many question leaving you with blue balls. Ship designs are ok but nothing special.
CHARACTERS: no development or likability in the leads and supporting character (both real and CGI). Look at the 4 main ones-
(1) MARY SUE: It took Luke Skywalker time as an apprentice to learn all about the force, how to use it, how to use a lightsaber and to be a jedi master. In The Empire Strikes Back Yoda warned Luke not to go to save his friend because his training is incomplete - Luke goes and gets beaten by Darth Vader.
Rey learns the force, wield a lightsaber like a pro in 2 minutes, fight and overpowers an experience Forced user(Kylo Ren), is an expert with the Jedi mind tricks, can fly the Millinium Falcon better than Han, knows everything without being trained AND understands droids and Chewie! What is unbelievable is there is no subtle hints that, Rey is Force user let alone seen anyone use it. She a desert scavenger with limited knowledge BUT can do everything. Thing are handed to her for plot convenience. Rey is a Mary Sue - a character who is perfect at everything which makes it very hard to like. By the way Daisy Ridley acting is mediocre. IF I WANTED TO WATCH A KNOW-IT-ALL person, I would go to work because there are dozens wannabes there. Also Daisy Ridley needs to learn to close her mouth when acting, cause it's distracting.
(2) THE PROTAGONIST: actor Adam Driver is good actor (better than Daisy Ridley) but Kylo Ren is poorly written character. He has a mask on for no apparent reason, whinges all the time, damaged property, kills/harms his own men and has anger management issues. Kylo Ren has no menacing presence compared to Vader. AND how did he get Darth Vader's mask? Was it not burnt on the funeral prye in Return of the Jedi. Kylo Ren real named Ben Solo. WHY? Obi-Wan Kenobie (Ben) never had a connection with Leia. Han never actually, spent time with Obi-Wan in a New Hope. So it would make more sense if Luke had children to name of of them after his first mentor.
However this movie should be about Kylo Ren's and not Rey. How he got seduced to the dark side, why he is conflicted, show why the the Knight of Ren faithfully follow him. He is by far the most interesting character in the film, despite his EMO ways.
(3) TOKEN: Finn,played by John Boyega, bad casting, is just a token black person in the movie. Did you ever wonder if this movie would of been different if the character was Asian looking or a female from another planet? Finn is a low level sanitation worker who just happens to knows plans on how to defeat the Star Destroyer? He whines all the time, a coward and is immediately friend zoned by Rey. This sweaty character should of died in the desert from lack of water and heat exhaustion.
(4) WASTE: Poe is a soulless character. Lets forget him.
TONE: the movies Tone changes way too fast. JJ Abrams doesn't know who to capture somber moment For example in beginning a village is destroyed, Max Von Sydow is killed, Poe is captured and brought before Kylo Ren. Poe makes a joke - villagers are murdered and there is humour? Finn and Poe are best pals at the end but Poe killed Finns friend in the beginning?
INJUSTICE: Leia needs a map to find him? WHY...they are connected. Leia is Force sensitive and Luke's twin. It would make sense for Leia to learn about the Force and it's powers, thus be MORE connected to her twin brother. Unfortunately the kick- arse, flawed, headstrong, no nonsense princess is a delegated to be a side lined cheerleader boring General. Why are Leia and Han portrayed as poor parents? Sadly Han Solo killed by his EMO son, surrounded by strangers, but there is no small emotional scene with Chewbacca. Leia immediately hugs Rey after Han dies but no moment with BFF Chewie. Bad ass Chewie is treated worse than any other OT characters, he is just a walking carpet for Disney to wipe their feet.
PLOT ARMOUR: all the character, with the exception of Han Solo and expendable extras, have an iron cast plot armour. Not once did it feel like the actors were in serious trouble or could die at any given moment....oh yeah let's not forget Rey is on the sidelines to save the day...again.
MUSIC: THE MOST ICONIC SCORE IN FILM HISTORY IS REDUCED TO WHITE NOISE. There is no emotional connection to melodies except Reys theme. Disney made an error not to allow John Williams do his magic within the time he were given. Remembers, in SW4, Luke looking at the suns on Tattoine and the music swelling up or the Imperial March. The Forces Awakens score is just OK. It isn't great, memorable and uplifting, it is just OK.
HOPEFUL: Disney to do a SW movie based on the online game The Old Republic. Look on Youtube and search for The Old Republic clips "Betrayed" "Return", "Hope" and "Knight of the fallen empire". But it is dubious Disney will do justice to the "Old Republic", based on the crap by JJ Abrams...
I could go on and on about this, but I am so tired of this movie that I'm gonna watch something else. Maybe Spongebob Square pants or something along those lines
