Really? They don't know where up is? Now for the good: I really like the lightsaber handoff between Rey and Ren foreshadowed by the 2 places fights they had. That concept is pretty new to Star Wars and it really paid off. Overall it was a fitting capstone to the triple trilogy. Some good, some stupid, still Star Wars.
