I haven't seen it yet, but I find the reviews of high praise suspicious. There's no way Disney would allow a $4 billion investment to fail. Prior to reviews coming out, I was already filled with skepticism. It seems from the summary, looks like a carbon copy of the original 1977 movie.

You cannot capture the magic and awe of the original trilogy. I simply want something new while upholding the tradition and continuity of the original three movies, I don't want a rehash! Regardless, I will see the movie and I know there's no way in hell it can be prequel trilogy awful. This is Disney, it's going to have some soulless corporate vibe stigmatized onto it. I know movies like Empire and Jedi were major Hollywood productions, but things are not like 30 years ago. Today everything is a marketing commercial within another commercial.

Even a movie I recently saw, Creed, has those issues. Creed wasn't set out to be a blockbuster and I went into with low expectations and was proven wrong. I am a Star Wars fan over Rocky every day of the year. But I am uncertain over episode VII.
