I find the Movie not above average.
The new director did a pleasant work for the audience, is an easy film to digest using the whole Star Wars history as leverage backup.
Han and Cheewie are by far the best two characters of this sequel. Making a big change from their first appearance.
The villain, is a very weak character that ends up been a clown if you compare him with the rest villains of the saga. The use of the mask is a Joke and his master is a full copy of the lord of the rings.
I don't believe the new director understood the history behind the film and that he had to take some risks to make this film a master piece as the previous saga. He just backed up and did the job that was pleasant for Disney and the current industry. What in fact was part was the opposite what Star Wars stood for on their first releases. This could be a Sequel for Harry Potter.
Additionally, One thing I think makes this movie bad sequel is that blood is shown, whereas in the rest of the saga is not, not even at the end of the second trilogy. Makes you think you are watching the Hunger Games or Twiligt
