Also seems like a terrible strategy for Finn. Would have been better to fake mental illness, or wait for leave to desert. Even while on a mission on some planet. Deciding to bust into the detention block to rescue someone he’s never met before and then blast his way out of a military ship? Just dumb.
Just stuff like this could have and should have all been cut from the movie. The script is not a good one, or at least it’s uneven. There were plenty of good things to like in this movie, but the stuff before we met Rey is not among them.
