A Difficult Movie to Grasp
27 June 2024
Somehow carrying on from the original trilogy, the story of 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens" is conveyed in an alien and unfamiliar way, largely ignoring what made it predecessors so successful.

Daisy Ridley is actually very good and brings in an abundance of energy, but her character is given too much unfathomable power without training or cause. John Boyega is awful and arguably the worst casted in the entire series. Oscar Isaac is an outstanding actor but gets messed around a lot. Harrison Ford is the only true character that receives a lot of undeserved abuse.

The entire movie is confusing. On one hand its clearly a retread of 'A New Hope' which should make sense, but on the other it's this weird establishing of a new world that feels like a parody of the world it is supposed to live in. Many scenes contain dialogue that come out like dribble and the writing pulls the movie apart.
