A Weak Movie

Rating: 6/10 (18 December 2019)

On first viewing, four years ago, when all the thirst for Star Wars was there, this was a very good movie. Then fast forward to one night before The Rise of Skywalker and a few minutes after rewatching The Last Jedi... The Force Awakens is a weak, safe, nostalgia-driven movie. It has zero heart and zero risk. It's a play that's good enough to keep the audience around for what was to come, but on its own, it's just... okay.
