It was entertaining and worth it.

Rating: 7/10 (31 December 2015)

Before I begin, I'm a person who's very critical of movies and I'm a bit hard to impress.
I just saw the movie in IMAX 3d, and I enjoyed the movie. I would watch it again. This movie is better than 1-3. It's not plagued with CGI and massive battles, and does with out the silly JAR JAR BINKS. This movie is mature enough for a 30 year old to enjoy.
I think the cast was good. It had funny moments that were perfectly timed. I thought the new robot was more funny than R2-D2 and had less annoying "Beeps."
SPOILERS BELOW***
The plot did have some holes, but maybe that was on purpose... Maybe we will learn more in Ep. 8. The plot was similar to A New Hope, but honestly, how else would they have started Ep. 7? Star Wars has always been about the construction and destruction of the Death Star. This time around it's a Star Destroyer as well as a planet destroyer. It's a bigger and badder Death Star.
I think the cast was good. Better than Hayden Christensen... that's for sure! I found it a bit odd how well Rey could pilot and how well she handled a light-saber, but if we look back at the beginning of this... she is a scavenger who has combat experience with a stick. She's street tough.. Luke Skywalker didn't have any experience flying, but he was able to fly X-Wing just fine.. He had to be trained to use the light saber because he had no experience with hand weapons. He was actually a crybaby (like his father) and a wimp.
As far as Fin goes.. Just how he came into play was believable.. He had a good heart, so he deserted the empire and joined the rebellion. When he picked up the light-saber, why is everyone freaking out saying that only a Jedi can use one? It's a energy sword! Anyone can use one if they can get their hands on it! Maybe the light-saber is there for anyone who is worthy! He wasn't good with it obviously... since he did nearly die after his fight with Kylor Ren...
Overall, the movie was good... not great, but not horrible. Keep in mind that this is the seventh episode of Star Wars! I found it better than the reboot Jurassic World.. I just hope episode 8 goes a little more deep into the story, is a bit longer, and really knocks us out of our seat.. just like Empire strikes back did!
