I also think the films a bit overrated. Nice popcorn movie but nothing more.

The big boss villain looks like a big cgi version of Yoda...

Mr. Ford looks so strained in his reprise role as Han Solo and his story arc seems like he said to the writers "Only one film!".

Leia *ugh* don't even get me started. The looks are gone and she never was a good actor to begin with. At least she only has a few sentences.

What I hate the most about the movie though was the shitty political correctness Disney always applies. The main role needs to be a women, the main
side role needs to be a black guy.... *ugh*

Maybe I was a bit dissapointed that the movie was pretty much a rehash of A New Hope. As a Star Wars film I'd give it a 5/10, as a popcorn movie 7/10.

Why does having a female and black lead instantly send you right to "ugh, political correctness"?

I honestly felt it rather refreshing, especially after the abysmal 1-3 trilogy.  Just a mass of monotone white guys running around the whole time.

Color or gender does not matter.

The (female) lead of the movie was OK.

As would be black lead or sidekick, but in this case the black actor felt shoehorned in pointless crap.
He was just there and did really nothing.
If he would have been white he would have been nothing, but as he was kinda advertised as the first black Stormtrooper and lead (maybe as a red herring), and then actually did not anything meaningful, he kinda felt like "Hi, I'm black, deal with it" and thus even less anything.

Hope that made any sense.
