More holes than a sieve

Rating: 1/10 (6 January 2016)

SPOILERS Important information essential to the success of the rebellion is hidden in a droid. Once the information has been extracted from the droid it helps the rebellion in their mission.
There is once again another death star, just bigger which the rebels destroy by disabling the shield generator and then attacking it with xwing fighters, but not before the empire (first order) use it to destroy a planet loyal to the rebels.
Deja vu anyone? It is basically a remake of A New Hope and relies on nostalgia to win the audience rather than a new plot.
Even if you look past the fact that this is a remake there is so many things that will make you cringe: Kylo Ren (the equivalent of Darth Vader) in the movie is a feeble whining emo-type character who has regular hissy fits like a little girl and looks like Snape out of Harry Potter. He is about as threatening and intimidating as a chihuahua, once he takes off his helmet. A far cry from the evil lord vader.
The supreme leader snuke looks like an enlarged overweight version of gollum from lord of the rings.
One of the cheifs in charge of the "death star" looks and sounds like he should be playing the part of a computer geek in a teen comedy.
Finn and Rey who are completely new to the ways of the force somehow manage to get the better of Kylo Ren (who is initially portrayed as someone well trained with the force) in a light sabre battle?!﻿ I was excited about this movie because JJ Abrams did a good job of rebooting the Star Trek movies but he has failed to do this with star wars.
