My review

Rating: 8/10 (3 January 2016)

1. I LOVED the story and thought Rey was a fab strong character. 2. Was disappointed with the lack of nostalgic reference to OBI-Wan, Amadala and other major former players in past episodes; lack of humor; lack of originality - rehash of scenes from previous episodes (like the bar and Death Star) but too much like the original with minimal change; too much shooting and not enough use of laser swords (For goodness sake, that's what they are known for!; lack of a believable connection between Rey and Finn 3. I was surprised at the major scene but it spiced up the storyline. 4. I will go to the next episode since VII left us hanging like V did.
