They are more concerned about race and gender than aliens and the force

Rating: 1/10 (30 December 2017)

Watching a battle in this movie is ridiculous. They make sure to cut to every race and gender, but no aliens. They might as well have been fighting around our own moon. The men are moronic, only the women are intelligent. They portrait the men as just wanting to blow things up without thinking and are regularly outsmarted by these super genius women. The bridge of the main resistance ship is 100% women, no aliens, NOTHING. Imagine watching Episode 4, without Mos Eisley, without the Aliens helping in the final battle. Imagine Return of the Jedi with no Jabba the Hutt Palace. Everything that made star wars unique and special is dead. They are now complaining about animal cruelty of alien racing animals, and worry about freeing them when the movie was seriously lacking at that point already. If Star Wars 4 were half as bad as this, that would have been the end of everything star wars decades ago. This movie makes Episode 1 look like a masterpiece. Real shame, I grew up watching these and was born in the beginning of the 80s. This movie is so bad I wish they didnt even make 7, they ruined it. I was super excited to see this and took my son. I had zero care about anything that happened halfway through.
