Not That Great

Rating: 6/10 (17 December 2015)

I agree with a bunch of reviews on here that the movie just doesn't compare with the movies by George Lucas.
First off the magic of the original movies is just how good the casting is.All of the characters have incredible chemistry.The cast is perfect.
In this movie we start off with Finn who is a terrible actor and who is basically a total wimp.I don't have any problem with him being African American but how can a storm trooper not be white,when they are all cloned from boba fett.
The movie gets much better with lead character Rey,who really gets the movie going until she hooks up with Finn.When she interacts with him,the movie goes downhill again.Once again he can't act and they have zero chemistry together on the screen.
The movie one again gets great when Hans Solo arrives but it just can't get anything going without any other solid characters.
Then there is the evil Darth Vadar character Kylo,who is also a total wimp and who we are supposed to believe is Hans son,even though he looks nothing like Han or the princess.One again it is terrible casting.
The story is also trying to hard to copy other Star Wars stories,instead of being original.Is this really the best that Abrams can do.What a surprise it was to basically have Harrison Ford get rid of the force field,so they can blow up the Death Star again.Abrams did a great job with Star Trek but he blew it on Star Wars.
The only reason I gave the movie a 6 out of 10 was because of Harrison Ford.Without him,this movie wouldn't have much going for it,other than the actress that played the character Rey.She was very good.
