Abrams Does It Again

Rating: 5/10 (21 December 2015)

Before I begin I have to say there are A LOT of spoilers here. It is because I have many things to comment on the plot.
This movie was supposed to cover the story what happens after the empire is destroyed and the new republic is formed right? So here are my comments actually my questions to Mr Abrams...
1- the empire is destroyed and you have formed the new republic, how and why have you allowed this "first order" to rise and even to convert an entire planet into a new super weapon? I mean I would understand the symphatisans of the empire, many leftover military groups, but establishing an order that can destroy star systems is a but too much. why hasn't the new republic noticed this? 2- why is there a resistance? the new galactic republic was formed by the rebel alliance (and even adopted the starbird as the emblem of the republic). so shouldn't the resistance be actually the arms of the new republic? why are there two different organizations against the first order? 3- why Luke goes into hiding? OK so a rogue student causes a disaster at the Jedi academy Luke feels responsible and goes for exile. just like that? I mean the last Jedi, who can sense the force and surely the "disturbances" in the force, did not sense the first order growing that big? and while everything happens, he just went off to some island? 4-cant you make a movie without blowing up the weak spots on a gigantic planet destroying weapon? again we see "ok guys here is the weapon, it has some shield and weak points, we disable the shield, get in and destroy the weapon by blasts".. nothing new.. this was the idea of the death star. and it was the ultimate weapon of the empire. but we passed that! wouldn't it be nice to have something original? 5- why and how is there a map that leads to Luke? there is a map and everyone goes after it but why is that simple? in the beginning an old man gives the partial map to Poe, who is he? how has he acquired the map? and in the end why does R2 suddenly reawaken himself and present the whole map? 6- who is snoke? how has he emerged out of no where? these are some of (the many) comments and questions I have. we might assume we are going to get some answers in the next movies but A HUGE SPOILER; WE ARE NOT GOING TO GET ANY. that is what JJ Abrams does. that is what he did in TV Series Alias and guess what in TV Series LOST ! he adds many unknowns, riddles and keeps everyone's expectations up. but in the end no one gets a satisfying explanation.
I mean this movie and the plot could have been a lot better. We know there are many things happening after the collapse of the empire, the struggle of the new republic and the restoration of the new Jedi order. but no. it is better to rewind the old sequels and make a similar movie.
By the way I have to add there can be many fantastic movies based on the plots of "the old republic". the story when the sith empire was against the republic led by the Jedi, how the galaxy was actually divided into two and how this star wars universe is insanely larger than than the clone wars, empire and the new republic...
but one thing I loved BB-8.
