Am I Not Entertained??

Rating: 7/10 (24 July 2018)

I am entertained. I watched it 2 nights in a row and I still want to watch it again. That's more than I can say for AOTC.
Still there are quite a few nagging bits, in no particular order.
1. Why are trained people dumb as knobs? Poe turned off HIS radio, not the whole communications network right? So when Leia said to retreat they ALL heard her? Why did they continue?
2. Speaking of Poe.... He's supposed to be the "Han Solo" right? Was Han ever that big of a... wad? (I don't know what the language restrictions are here.)
3. We watched Obi-Wan confront his dark side padawan. Watching Luke do it with Ben is not riveting.
4. Finn is a loser of epic proportions. I don't know how they expect a franchise to succeed with him in it. Also don't know why Rose is hated more than that loser.
5. Speaking of Finn and Rose, they wasted time and resources on saving a ship that was destined for destruction and got the resistance killed. Who's writing these stories now? Depressing much?
6. The Supreme Leader was cut in half. Who are those red dudes fighting for at that point??
7. Luke....I can't even go on.
So despite all that, I'm more investing in Rey now. The Force-Time calls with Kylo really drew me in. They should've had those in Force Awakens. I would've been onboard sooner.
That being said, there was a very strong "Changing of the Guard" feel to this movie and the idea that Good is now represented by Poe and Finn and Evil is Kylo Ren is laughable. Especially Kylo. He needs a nap and a snickers ASAP and then he might be an effective/believable Dark Lord.
