My eyes were sore from rolling them so many times in disbelief.

Rating: 1/10 (1 January 2016)

Seriously?! The Force is Sound Asleep. I went in with low expectations and it couldn't even clear that bar. I had to fake occasional interest so that my son wouldn't see my brutal disappointment in this film. I can't believe that with all of the time, money, and hype this is all we received. What was JJ thinking? I actually like both of the Star Trek reboots, now I'm afraid of what the next one will hold.
I was glad to find so many like-minded Star Wars fans on IMDb who share my pain. The movie never hooked me and as it dragged on I was in awe of the complete lack of originality. No hyperbole, I was rolling my eyes over and over especially as the climax approached. I had to FORCE myself not to yell at the screen in anger. The ending was indeed a surprise--just how blatantly it ripped off the original film.
The other (negative) reviews already list many of the plot holes (craters) in this film.
Here are some of my personal spoilers: As soon as Kylo Ren dropped the mask I yelled: Snape! Look up their photos--the nose, hair, rumpled faces, and Zoolanderesque crease between the eyes.. In episode 8 we will learn that Princess Leia was planning her revolution while hiding at Hogwarts and had an affair with Severus Snape.
Also, we will learn the identity of Maz Kanata's father. Annoying Orange will show up and announce: Ha Ha Ha Ha. I am your father, Maz! Ha Ha Ha Ha!
Let us all pray that there will never be ANOTHER Death Star in the galaxy...
