I thought the humor was off during the entire film. It all started with Poe making mom jokes while attacking an imperial fleet and it kept right on going. It took the tension and drama out of every scene. The jokes really weren't funny either way, unless you are nine years old I guess. Made me literally cringe and feel embarrassed to be sitting in the theater.

I mean he made *a* mom joke. Singular. I will agree though that that felt out of place in the film.

The rest of the humor criticisms I don't get. Are there particular jokes that stood out to you?

That's tough, I only saw the movie once and I don't remember all if it in such detail to be able to point out every awkward joke. Even if I did, it would take too long.
I just remember a lot of jokes and I got a marvel vibe out if it. Which is fine for a movie like Guardians of the Galaxy, but not a movie like Star Wars with it's darker themes.

I remember where the pink haired admiral chick goes off to sacrifice herself, which should be a pretty intense and emotional moment. Instead we get an awkward dialog between her and Leia where they both say may the force be with you and laugh about it, even though the lady is about to sacrifice her life. Cool that they can laugh about it! Really makes me feel for her.

They also made Hux seem like a total clown in this movie, being the brunt of plenty of jokes or him being force thrown around like a rag doll by both Snoke and Ren....how can you take him seriously as a villain? Please compare that to the imperial generals in the first movies...they got offed, but at least they could be taken seriously.
