IMO, it is a very good film; decent plot, good acting, great action sequences, enjoyable and Daisy Ridley is incredibly sexy.
As a *STAR WARS* film, it is a travesty; FA opened up so many plotlines and made a ton of headway in which direction the series would/could go.
This film slammed the massive door shut on ALL of those plot points, introducing new ones that are confusing and pointless, IMO and while I don't care (really don't), it pissed off a ton of fans who won't go back to the series and Disney will lose out.
Not invested into the series enough or care enough to let it really bother me, but I empathise with the hardcore on this.
