Completely unoriginal and full of plot holes, but entertaining.

Rating: 5/10 (18 December 2015)

Yes, this will contain spoilers. But you know what? If you've seen episode IV, you won't actually be surprised by this movie.
The Force Awakens is kinda of a remake, but not really. I guess the writers thought "Hey! It worked in the past. It's bound to have success now!" And you'll see a lot of excited people about the movie, so I guess they're right. Unfortunately. Still, it has some very interesting settings, and cool battles. I guess the target audience will be pleased. Star Wars fans older than 12 were not the target audience.
To me the main pain points are the complete ripoff of episode IV and the plot holes. Let's start with the ripoffs:

Valuable information is hidden in a droid by the Resistance. First Order searches for said droid in a desert planet.

And guess who the droid runs into? Yeap... The main character. It's like they aren't even trying.

Bigger and badder Death Star. X-Wings go in to destroy it right when it's trying to destroy the Rebel/Resistance base. Someone else is disabling the shield

Now to the plot holes:

They re-encounter the light saber that was Luke's and his father's before him. May I remind you that that particular light saber was lost during episode V?!?!

How did Han Solo let the Falcon get away from him? The man looked like he would rather lose a limb than to part with that ship!

How does someone who thought the Force was a myth learns to do mind control out of nowhere?!

How does a Sith apprentice that can stop a blaster shot in mid air takes more than 5 seconds to deal with a deserter Storm Trooper and a Scavenger?

There are more ripoffs and plot holes, but I think you get the picture. After that there are some things that just feel weird, or just pointless. The 2 gangs that board Solo's freighter and battle giant aliens. That sequence added absolutely nothing to the movie. Nothing at all. I liked that Kylo Ren is Leia's and Han's son, but that whole thing felt that it wasn't really taken to its full potential. The interaction between Han and Leia really suffers because of it. Also, that thing that Rey is waiting for someone (her family?) to come back to her is pointless as well. It makes no difference to the story. It's not even developed enough to make you connect with the character.
Bottom line: this movie is like someone made a cover from a classic rock music. It's not bad, but it will never reach not even half of what the original is.
