Saw it a second time, and overall enjoyed the film. I still feel it’s deeply flawed and plays it fast and loose with the in-universe rules. I still can’t believe how overpowered and perfect Rey is, learning in days what others do in years. There’s good stuff and some great scenes, but overall this film feels disconnected to the rest of the saga. I also feel the acting was on a higher level in TFA, and felt Domnhall Gleeson was overall very bad, which sucks because he’s now one of the two main antagonists. Kylo and Hux simply can’t compete with Vader and Tarkin or Vader and the Emperor as far as I’m concerned. Overall the antagonists left for ep IX seem a pretty weak bunch, but then again so do the rebels.
