If the Hobbit was an example of stretching a story too far into three movies Star Wars the Force Awakens is an example of trying to cram 2 movies into one. The new Death Star is 10x the size of the old one, can suck the energy from a sun, and all it takes to shut down the shields of this state of the art structure is for a drill sergeant to log into a computer in a side room? I can't get over that. My boys really enjoyed it and maybe that's what these movies are for as an adult you kind of have to ignore the flaws and enjoy the action sequences.
Daisy Ridley was fantastic and she stole the movie IMO.
