I miss George Lucas.

Rating: 5/10 (17 December 2015)

Alright I guess. But I truly miss George Lucas now. He took the time to establish his different worlds. You could see a descent last for like 30 seconds. In this one? 5 seconds. Maybe less. Remember when the x-wings attacked the death star in A New Hope? It took those fighters a good minute before the attack really began? In this one? -- "The Rebels are comin!"/Bang! No tension.
And I miss all that jumbo-dumbo about the force and dysfunctional families. The time they took to sit and straight things out about what happened. Yes, more films will be coming -- and lots of them! Answers there will be. But this, unlike the other six, doesn't quite work on its own terms. It is like Disney has turned Star Wars into a stupid TV-show.
What else? Yeah... Remember how smoothly characters were presented in the old films (yes, even those from 1999, 2002, and 2005)? You know 3PO and R2 seeing Darth Vader enter the scene and meeting Luke Skywalker before the film changes its perspective from 3PO's and R2's point of view to be seen from Luke's perspective in the Cantina scene? In this one? Here the characters are so randomly presented that the movie becomes such an inconsistent mess.
But whats good then? Yeah, that's right! Han Solo delivers!
