Hubby and I saw it yesterday. Both of us thought it was as stinker. 2 stars at best. Same old formula, similar plot, similar humor. Ford just too old looking he should have had some work done. If he was the father of a 20 something he should not have looked so old. Looked more like his grandfather. He really moved like an old guy in some of those fight scenes and they never bothered to get his hair to match from scene to scene. The new actors were pretty good.

I agree with you, though I’ll go 2.5 stars just for the fun my sons and I had with all the references. The “parsecs mistake” was great, if you know what I am referring to. (Trying not to spoil)

Ford just too old looking...haven't been able to sit through any of the Star Wars films after "Return of the Jedi", probably because I lost motivation after our daughter got beyond the age when it was fun to take her to the movies to see such stuff - but I remember having the same reaction as you had about Ford about the guy who played Luke Skywalker - whatever his name is - by the time the Jedi film came along - in a couple of scenes he had started to look like a burned out used-car salesman instead of a dashing young adventure star - must be a weakness in the Star Wars production scheme - try to keep the old big names around too long to keep the fans coming back....
