Saw the movie last night- wow! Sometimes they seem to have forgotten the laws of physics, but whatever. And Abrams was able to make a movie without that stupid lens flare or rotating-"camera" nonsense!!!
Didn't feel like a whole movie's worth of action, it was basically one battle, and it was kind of a redoing of the "New Hope" one, but hopefully the next one will be more storyline and this was the setup for it.
Predictably, I really liked Rey. I liked that she didn't have to have a romance storyline, and that she kicked some butt. All on her own.
I'm touch-and-go on Fin. Eh, maybe. He's believable, so that's good.
I really was glad Chewbacca was back. They seem to have made him easier to understand.
Leia seems to have lost a bit of the "steel" she had when she was younger. There was one line that demanded a command tone, and it wasn't quite there. She gave the order, but it didn't quite sound like she meant it.
Not surprised at the Han Solo storyline. Harrison Ford was *on his game* in this movie as an actor. He was fantastic.
