Don't get me wrong they did a fantastic job on all the settings and graphics but come on guys, did you not see how blatantly they ripped off the originals? They even used very similar or outright copies of camera shots from the original films. The reason it was good was because they went for the easy option of just re-hashing the original storyline and putting some new characters in and then there's all the plotholes in the story that were there like the female lead suddenly gaining jedi powers with absolutely no explanation whatsoever.
I liked the background of the stormtrooper because it finally gave those generic bad guys some camera time but everyone else is being too distracted by the fantastic battle sequences and sounds to care.
*Potential Spoiler Alert*
Everyone keeps complaining about Rey's abilities and I didn't find it that distracting. I don't want to give away too much for those who haven't seen it, but you have to realize she spent most of her life obsessing about the times of Luke Skywalker. She knew about the Falcon and Han Solo, she had a former rebel pilot's helmet, and doll of a rebel pilot. She probably heard about ever legend of the Force. So if she knew about the skills of the Force she would try them herself once she realized that she could use the Force.
Yes, but none of that was shown in the film, so as far as I'm concerned it's a major plothole where she magically gains force powers for no fucking reason whatsoever. If you remember in the original films they did that whole thing where Luke went training with Yoda but with Rey they completely skipped that and left it out. It's people making excuses for bad writing, like with other stories I shouldn't have to dig through some obscure canon story outside of whatever product I'm sold to find all the reasons for this, also you seem to be making it up so it's likely they haven't explained it outside of the films either.
It's like how the Avengers magically communicate without headsets because they just completely left that detail out, that can end up being really distracting for people who notice that sort of thing, even the most simplistic super hero stories though always give some sort of explanation as to why a main character gets super powers all of a sudden like with spiderman getting bit by a radioactive spider or something.
