Just saw the movie, and eh, not much of a star wars fan, mostly went for the spectacle of it all, so rating them to me is kind of like rating my favorite rocks in my back garden, just doesn't really mean much. I will say this though, watching the force awakens was like watching a paint by numbers how to make your own star wars a new hope show, calling it cookie cutter would be a gross understatement. The line between homage and blatant fucking ripoff is in no way fine, in fact it's pretty damn broad and the force awakens soars past it faster than a self-insertion fanfic.

And that little force mind battle bit between wannabe-vader and lady-luke was one of the most hilariously awful scenes in a movie that I think I've ever seen, I mean holy shit, even the Vader 'noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo' scene wasn't so hokey. Still, at least it didn't feel as insipid as the prequel movies.
