User Reviews
I enjoyed it now with 2 of 4 planned viewings this weekend under the belt. But it has some glaring problems for the hard core fans. SPOILERS
- Especially fans of the excellent novels that now officially have been
trashed. First inexcusable foible, that both the new characters were able to go more than one second in a saber battle with an experienced force user, and second, that the Skywalker sister is a mundane general instead of a force-skilled warrior herself, which is unbelievable. That latter especially as we see how stunningly quickly Rey adopts advanced force skills as a complete 'force newbie' - yet somehow Leia has remained a mundane for decades (of course in the books she sharpened her force skills as one would expect of someone so packed with the Skywalker bloodline, even after maintaining public office and duties outside the Order.) Or that the rebels surrounding an active Republic and decades of time to capitalize on their defeat of the emperor could only mount a few squadrons when military was needed. Oh, and a super weapon apparently destroys the entirety of the Republic with one blow all in relegated to one solar system? That the empire-ish faction would even waste all those resources on another even larger superweapon given how well those worked out in the past - they could have built what... a million fleets instead? That Luke abandoned his duty because of one bad seed (not in the books, where similarly one of Han/Leia's kids go bad.) Wow, they should have stuck to the 'credible and esteemed authored' novel material, because story-wise, it didn't hold up to any credibility. Suspension of disbelief among fans has to suffer tremendously upon reflection. I'm afraid the story just doesn't work for this long-time fan. The story blocks crumble. They may have delivered a quality "fun" movie experience, but as a component of vary rare Star Wars canon, they really failed.
