11. The humour – Part 1.
The curse of Marvel strikes again, Just as Justice League disastrously tried to lighten up the tone with quips and pratfall, so Star Wars followed suit. Yes, Star Wars has always had humour, but it was integral to the characters and incidental. This time it was clanged into every corner. From Luke milking an alien to BB8 riding an AT-AT, silly Ahch-To nuns to Rey blushing at a shirtless Kylo Ren.
Some moments did work, like the delicious ironing gag and Chewbacca roasting a porg but that was because they were incidental flourishes, not mockeries of main characters.
12. The humour – Part 2: Hux.
Poor old Hux. Yes he is a bit of a nutter, but he became ridiculous in this movie. The entire opening sequence from Poe Dameron’s tedious prank call to Snoke’s humiliation of his supposed second in command was painful. This guy is supposed to the terrifying, psychopath driving force of horrifying new Order. He was reduced to a tantrum-throwing teenager locked in a battle over who does the washing up with Kylo Ren.
13. Phasma.
We love Gwendoline Christie but her Phasma sounds like a phone-sex operator but seems unable to ever give or get satisfaction. She was hopeless in The Force Awakens, giving away the codes to destroy her army’s biggest weapon without a whimper. This time she swaggers around and then falls off a big ledge. A bit like this movie.
