I thought they did a great job at casting especially when it comes to Daisy Ridley. Who would have thought that such an unknown would give such a great performance.

I thought she was quite ‘wooden’ very much like prequel characters but each to their own, must be difficult acting to thin air though.

You might be the only person on the planet who feels this way. It’s certainly not an “each their own” situation.

Several reviewers said she was quite wooden – The Evening Standard review really slated her.

Pretty sure he was talking about the population at large. Just about everyone and their grandmother thinks Daisy can act her ass off. Also there were negative reviews of ESB so a few lonely contrarians doesn’t really amount to much.

where she puts her hand over her mouth, being the most cringeworthy example of this

In her defense has anyone been able to do that convincingly? Because whenever someone does that in a game/movie/show it always takes me out of the experience.

Also if that’s the worst example of her “wooden” acting that shows how good of a performance she gave because the seemingly worse thing she did is a million times better than all of the cringe worthy shit Hayden pulled off in both of his performances.
