I liked it, they kept the action going at the expense of too much exposition. The storyline was the standard Star Wars formula but the CGI was outstanding, and the ability to bring Peter Cushing and --sadly-- Carrie Fisher back to life was astounding. It wasn't enough to fool the eye, but damn... it was pretty close.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
