Any movie enthusiast can see this movie is appallingly bad. So I wonder how IMDB managed to give it a 7.5 rating. This is simply inacceptable.
Just to summarize what makes this flick a disaster, like thousands of people already did:
My personal worst criticism actually applies to the previous movie too. Disney has turned this saga into a world of wishful thinking, while Luca's story, despite the sad failures of the prelogy, was still sticking to the basic archetypes of tales and legends.
Disney's rendition is just a world where almighty little kids can wish their problems away. Rey doesn't need training to best the best. She can also teach Solo how to repair his own ship. One does wonder why she bothers to go after Luke in the first place, except to humiliate the poor old geezer. Even the comic relief robot can beat elite stormtroopers because, well, because it would be a bummer not to be able to.
Well, what could you expect from a company that turned Notre Dame de Paris into an incoherent mess where Quasimodo happily cheers when Esmeralda marries Phoebus? These guys turn everything they touch into toxic waste.
Shame on Disney, and shame on IMDB for rigging the rating of this piece of rubbish.
Just to summarize what makes this flick a disaster, like thousands of people already did:
- total betrayal of everything the Star Wars saga stood for
- indigent script full of plot holes
- terribly slow and boring pace after the 5 initial minutes
- 3 stooges humor that manages to get more annoying than Jar Jar's pathetic stunts
- wooden characters with completely inconsistent psychology (all this "young male vs. female leaders" thing is just painful to watch. This would have sounded indigent even in an obscure indie movie about harassment at work, but this lame story arc in a Star Wars movie, really?)
- absurd plot twists and situations (killing key characters just for the thrill of it, Marry 'Leila' Poppins, the supposedly clever "warp bomb" trick, a romance under the nose of the 1st order army, really?)
- no continuity with the previous movie (all previous movie's leads and clues blatantly ignored, as if the director hadn't even bothered watching it)
- pathetically unbelieveable and hypocrite political statements (Disney production staff doesn't like the rich white men who sign their checks, really?)
- massacre of Luke Skywalker's character. This is simply an insult to intelligence, to millions of people who grew to like the character, and to Mark Hammill who was used as a pathetic sidekick and literally wiped out of the saga by a cheap CGI trick. This is disrespectful to so many people in so many ways.
