So Disappointed - no magic in this Star Wars

Rating: Null/10 (29 December 2017)

I was so anticipating this movie but never in my wildest dreams did I think I was going to leave so unsatisfied. The movie was seriously lacking that Star Wars magic that brings you out of our world and into theirs. The newer characters were confused or confusing in their pointless plot lines. Our beloved Luke Skywalker's character so well established in the initial trilogy just destroyed. Leia flying through space was silly. Everything that we wanted to be addressed from TFA waspretty much just spat on and discarded like garbage. No magic here! prior to seeing this, I was already planning to take my kids to see it as well, but don't want to further invest any more money into this. If I wanted something other than Star Wars, I would have gone to a different movie. The fact that I went to go to watch Star Wars but didn't receive Star Wars but an overly ambitious, meaningless bunch of nonsense makes me really sad. After TFA, I was so looking forward to this. After TLJ, so not caring, no magic and no anticipation. Should have been and could have been so different. Please JJ Abrams - please try and resurrect Star Wars again true to its original form and glory as it means a lot to people who want to see a Star Wars movie and not Star Trek or any other movie for that matter.
