Uninteresting, Lack of Heart

Rating: 4/10 (27 May 2018)

This film was not what I expected to be. So much hype was built around it, that I was excited to watch. When finally watching, I was so dissappointed. I was expecting it to be on par with The Empire Strikes Back, except this was no where near as great.
What this film contained was many side plots that were very unnecessary and many awkward moments within the characters. The original characters even lacked the charm they had in the original trilogy.
1. The romantic plots? Really? It's just awkward. 2. Kylo trying to pursuade Rey to join him? I felt like I was watching an awkward porno when the step brother tries getting it on with his step sister when Mom and dad aren't around... yeah, no, weird.
3. Luke Skywalker is no Ben Kenobi. Ben was a nice old man. Luke is as grumpy as Red Foreman from That 70s Show.
Being a Star Wars fan for the last 22 years, I am greatly disappointed. There is no heart, nor great story to this addition of the series. The actors seem bored, and Kylo is just another Anakin Slywalker, whiny.
Overall, if you have kids and want to watch a decent action film, go ahead. If not, who cares?As many people have said, Disney has ruined Star Wars and it shows.
I give this a 4 because realistically, films aren't 1s, and it's mainly for the original characters and the ending.
