Far far away from George Lucas' masterpiece

Rating: 4/10 (1 January 2016)

It is claimed to have cost 200 millions, but that obviously did not go in the originality of the script (it's blatantly ripping off a lot from the original trilogy), the quality of the camera work or the actors.
The dialogue is now laden with moronic adolescent talk - e.g. 'who talks first, you talk first or I talk first?' - when Poe first encounters Kylo Ren, a sith lord.
Apparently, the empire has been taken over by white supremacists, and the galaxy will be saved by an Hispanic (Poe, who might be gay too), a black guy (Finn) and a women (Rey) - Hollywood's politically correct multicultural liberalism at its best.
In a nutshell, it has nothing of the magnificence that made it a monument of the modern film industry and a cultural icon. It's just another average SF Hollywood 'made for $$$' flick based on a popular franchise - e.g. terminator, alien, superman.
While George Lucas sold his soul for 4 billions, for sure he must have some misgivings - they have significantly degraded and stained his masterpiece.
What a shame.
