Star Wars is finished, and if you see this you will know why..

Rating: 1/10 (20 December 2017)

Why?
Why was Daisy Ridley as Rey allowed to deliver her lines in a flat, detached, emotionless tone, with no acting skills evident what-so-ever?
Why?
Why did the Director obviously not watch any of her takes?
Why?
Why, if he did watch any of her takes did he let those takes go to the final edit?
Why?
Why, if Daisy Ridley has any pride in her art, did she herself not tell the Director: "Look Im obviously not feeling it, can you explain to me the emotional gravitas of Star Wars one more time?"
Why?
Why do we have to see the charge of the feminist agenda movie after movie, star wars movie after star wars movie?
Why?
Why does the feminist agenda need to equate the worst of the male character trait, violence, with equality?
Why?
Why is this thrust in our faces like we are just going to emulate the behaviours of terrible actresses? Or is that the hidden agenda?
Put forward a seemingly strong message for female empowerment via the only means stupid violent men have done it, but do it with such terrible acting that the message is totally lost and the viewers are just culturally confused.
Did we actually just watch a Star Wars movie,.. you know, the ones where in a New Hope we were so excited and emotionally invested in the characters they felt like family we never had. Adventures and fantasy creatures and landscapes that were scary but again, familiar. Where we felt like superheroes upon leaving the cinema,.. where.. Okay, you get it. Enough. Enough destroying Star Wars. You've done it now, move on. Destroy another legacy, maybe Lord of the Rings? You tried to squeeze Gollum back in there with Snore, ... I mean, Snoke. Jeez..

When you repeat a Star Wars theme from the original trilogy without any cohesive ongoing emotionally invested narrative you don't add to The Force Awakens, or The Last Jedi nor Pumpkin Pie, you detract from the poetry of the original trilogy, you crush our dreams and make such popular culture appear as it is, pathetic, a waste of our money and time. You rip the heart out of the illusion. Its not organized fandom as one review suggested, getting bitter with a new take. The idea, the love and dream of the fantasy, the hope gave us our bond.
With all but the original trilogy this has been ripped away from us. It's possibly a good thing, because, with movies like this, which idolize violence and war, the idea of idolizing those who do it best has to die with it too.
This message was hidden in one scene, in this movie, but it was done to such poor effect, it will be swallowed in the waves of terrible dialogue, dire delivery and the death grip of corny sheeny superficiality that has become the staple of Hollywood.
Embarrasingly poor Adam Driver tantrums, mean the casting director should never work again. He looks like a child with no character development going anywhere. What was all that stuff with Luke?! What the..?!
What was the point in just throwing Del Toro in there? Just floating around on whimsical mutterings of a script writer who was obviously tired of him or herself when they were writing his part, .. and all other parts:
Phasma? Not again, please, spare us.
Laura Dern? Why? Just why? Awful, just awful.
Cute little thingys getting on in the way, most annoying digital character sing Jar Jar BS.
What were those other things too, giant Lama Lambs, with big ears? Could they honestly not come up with new sound effects for the sounds they make other than another Wookie-like growl?
The whole movie was riddled by the achingly pointless fever to rush from one scene to the next, like a child playing Star Wars, only without the imagination, and with all the frenetic uncontrolled nonsense of wish fulfilment, without recalling what that wish really ever was.
