CONS
1) PLOT! -> I really think this sumamrizes the plot problem perfectly
http://i.imgur.com/TmV1ILm.jpg?12) Some charcaters/Some actors ->
- Kylo's character seems so weird to me in general. The mix of being a crybaby/looser/try to be a badass and the exagerated acting just seems out of star wars to me. Btw, Why on earth do you wear a helmet if you take it off as soon as you can? hahaha.
- Han: Please, who though making Harrison Ford run all the time at his age would be a good idea? I was all the time thinking, poor man at this rate he is gonna die for real
- Leia: Seems also quite off the new saga, nothing remarkable from having her on the cast
- Finn: Well not that I disliked the character, but seems to be overdoing everything sometimes. Like hell yes gimme that light saber gonna kill badass, gimme that shooting controls I'm so pr0
- Chewbacca: Always great, but c'mon going from a) being hurt in a normal battle to b) able to kill everyone with one shoot when he is mad, seems to much for me (With 5 chewes you would destroy the empire
)
- Maz,troopers' general and other secundaries: Totally useless if you don't explain whats the connection with the whole story. Also funny that Maz gets her ancient and surviving fortress destroyed in 10 minutes
3) Lightsabers -> This is becoming more marketing than anything else, yes sure it looks cool and I'm not against innovation, but they are getting away of the saber idea.
4) CGI -> This comes last since I didn't find them too bad in general, but sometimes they overdid and looked too "fake".
PROS
1) The star wars atmosphere -> I think they got a better recreation of the atmosphere than in the prequels
2) Funny moments and tributes to old movies -> Having some is fine and I enjoyed them, the problem is that they they use too many tributes so it looks like a remake.
3) Music -> It felt good to me, and think it was in the same star wars line that made it famous.
4) Special effects -> I liked most of them and even if the plot abused on action and there's too much "pam pum shush plush kaboom!" at least they were quite enjoyable.
