It didn't feel all that much like that to me, Part of it, was probably the broad sword concept made it awkward. But Ren was a fully trained Jedi, and he just looked awkward. It was weird that Rey was superior to Ren in every way. Also the fight between Ren a powerful Force user who could stop laser blasts and freeze people should have crushed Finn in less then a second.


If you want to see a duel with weight behind it based on emotion without technique that worked. Luke vs Vader two while Luke was flirting with the darkside, that was well done as he basically beat Vader down and over powered him.
