This is much better than ' The force awakens. Miriam and I could not have made a better version of this movie in our non existent garden. I have to get the disappointments out of the way first so that I can focus on the good bits.
Mark Hamil was disappointing. Luke was rubbish in this film but then again so is Kylo-ren so there is nothing to live up to. Luke does very little and Ray is pathetic which means that half of the film was a waste of time.
Next criticism is that there was not enough action in this movie and too much complexity. Too much of this movie was split across worlds and it just didn't help me to enjoy the movie at all. I will say it now, it wasn't a bad movie but it wasn't a good one either.
Snoke I just don't understand at all. I don't understand where he came from, why be can use the force or who he is and most of all his death was a huge disappointment and very pathetic. He is no emperor and Ren is no Vader so there was no way that this movie could live up to any of the original trilogy.
Carrie Fischer was actually good. Her character had more to it than the normal arrogant and stuck up Princess Lea that we have come to know. She should compassion and understood a lot more about herself and was not totally reliant upon the Jedi. She was probably the pick of them in second place and there wasn't much competition for it. Po is probably the only competitor for second place and first place was obviously taken by BB8. Finn didn't have enough involvement in this movie to be competing and everyone else was rubbish.
Domhall Gleeson was strong in his role but he isn't general Tarkoon and as impressive as he is, he won't quite get there but he was the best evil character that there was. The only issue I have is this entire 'Tracking thorough light speed thing. If you can do that then light speed is worthless and does not need to feature in any more movies and it just seemed like a pathetic excuse to have another attempt to go to the enemy and take down the death star or whatever the evil thing is this time. For me it just didn't really fit with Star Wars and seemed to be a filler for a serious lack of ideas.
Of all the bad and rubbish that has come out of this reboot, BB8 is fantastic and should take his place in history next to R2D2. I will remember this character as the best thing about the reboot and only hope that this was the end because Ray is rubbish and hasn't learned to be a Jedi at all.
Happy New Year everyone.
