First two acts of the movie were very slow and kinda boring. Didn’t really care bout the characters enough except for the female lead Jinn. The 3rd act saved the film from being a meh Star Wars film IMO. This movie and story really didn’t need to be told.

The best thing about this movie was minimal CGI. Take a hint Hollywood.

1st half of the movie was slow and boring. The 3rd act saved it from being a snoozfest.

Cool, I’m sure you agree when CGI is used right (Dark knight Trilogy etc etc etc) is what should be strived for. Its over reliance is why most movies look like shit now. Back to the original point of Star Wars Episode VII, there was no reason Snoke and Maz needed to be CGI. put some make up on Andy Serkis and I guarantee it would have been phenomenal. Gollum worked because he looked believable, the hobbits (in LOTR) were little people with CGI faces/masks in some scenes and it looked believable. THAT is the point. Its what we all want and there is no reason for anyone to disagree with that, but it is the comments section so SOMEONE has to make a point against it right?

lol no i’d like to see him as a puppet like he originally was, that still holds up today.

a practical approach that still has terrible CGI, when they literally could’ve CGed the side of Andy Serkis’ face, like they did for Harvey Dent. Cheaper than a fully CGI character to boot.
