I think you mean "The Force Awakens". It trumps them all because it's a throwback but does it better than the old ones.
It's kind of like watching the "True Grit" remake. It just does everything better plus you don't have John Wayne in there being a big pussy.

No I do not.
The Force Awakens might as well have been named "A New Hope 2017"
Jedi student turns on his master, later killed a beloved character.
Jedi hero has gone into seclusion and the god guys really want to find him.
Unknown Jedi on a desert planet, a lovable robot, and a guy with questionable motives team up to destroy planet killing super weapon. They even go to a bar full of sketchy characters.
The only thing different is the bad guy lacks Vader's confidence and the new hero is a cute chick. Aside from that, it is A New Hope with better special effects.
It wasn't terrible, but in terms of the best it is well behind A New Hope, Rogue One, and The Empire Strikes Back. There are no Ewoks, so it places ahead of Return of the Jedi but that is a near call.
Rogue One painted the rebellion in a far more realistic light. When fighting a superpower, even the good guys must use harsh means and they showed it. They showed how in a rebellion, not everyone is in it for the same reasons, and they showed that there is a very high price to pay for pulling on superman's cape. All in all, it was far more edgy than the others. They also wove it into the first movie quite nicely and the special effects and scenery were fantastic.
