Lack of a good story, a few actors that are out of place!!

Rating: 4/10 (24 March 2016)

What made so good the previous episodes of the Star Wars movies were the good stories for each episode. BUT for this episode 7, the worst is the story!! If you have seen the previous Star Wars movies, you must remember that the original story is basically identical to the story of this episode 7!! It did make a lot of sense with the actors used the first time this story was used of hiding the plan of a death star in a droid but to go as far as reusing a similar story again for this episode 7 but this time to hide the location of Luke Skywalker, it does not make sense anymore!! Basically, we have a near repeat story for episode 7!! It is not great at all!! More, the way the events are presented, they do not feel genuine, really authentic at all!!
I remember reading reviewers saying they preferred the first three episodes of Star Wars but me I preferred the episodes 4, 5, and 6 because they combined excellent stories with excellent special effects. For episodes 1, 2 and 3, the special effects were simply not at the level of quality that they were later on in episodes 4, 5, and 6. Special effects do matter in science-fiction movies, provided there is a good story.
This episode 7 lacks a soul I could say!!
Well, let us hope that the other episodes will have much better stories and much better worlds to discover and actors who act more realistically than in episode 7.
Here are mostly TV series and a few movies that I highly recommend, as I watched them and enjoyed them a lot.

There are a few classics in science-fiction TV series:
---Smallville
---Star Trek: Enterprise
---Babylon 5
---Earth: Final Conflict
---Battlestar Galactica
---Star Wars (6 movies so far and counting)
---Jupiter Ascending (a movie)
all deserving 15 out of 10 because they are all very special TV series for the quality of their stories and for the amazing actors that they have. Are these TV series perfect? No, as they sometimes have "filler" episodes that are not too great and they also sometimes have "holes", illogical elements in the main story or in the individual stories of particular episodes. Despite sometimes the presence of these very few shortcomings, these TV series are really unique and special in many ways that you will nevertheless enjoy them greatly.
