A great story without the "whining-ness" that is the Skywalker-gene (prequel Anakin, current Kylo Ren). It was weird seeing a Jedi not using force push or a lightsaber. Now for some spoilers: Darth Vader was brutal, Leia has an appearance, Darksaber is mentioned, and all the main characters -- even the droid -- sacrifice themselves for the cause. It did feel weird not a seeing an intro scroll at the beginning, like every other SW movie, but it was nice seeing completely new characters, not related to the original movie's characters, with their own background and desires. Suffice to say, it dragged somewhat, but you won't be disappointed by the ending.
