Vatican newspaper L’Osservatore Romano, criticized the new Star Wars installment, the Force Awakens, complaining that the villains aren’t evil enough. The anonymous critique dismissed the film’s villains as pale imitations of previous baddies.

“The new director’s set-up fails most spectacularly in its representation of evil, meaning the negative characters,” laments the newspaper. “Darth Vader and above all the Emperor Palpatine were two of the most efficient villains in that genre of American cinema.”

The review goes on to state that Darth Vader’s counterpart, Kylo Ren, just wears a mask to emulate predecessors but does a clumsy and tacky job of truly incarnating what supreme evil represents.

Newspaper L’Osservatore Romano is the semi-official newspaper of the Vatican that was established in 1861 though its reputation has been tarnished in recent times. In 1960, the newspaper attacked Federico Fellini’s La Dolce Vita, labeling it as an “incitement to evil crime and vice” while deploring its immorality. Lately, however, the newspaper has taken a liberal turn by praising Skyfall’s beautiful Bond girls and the like.

Now, it believes that evil in the Force Awakens is not evil enough showing that the old paper – and possibly the new Pope – have turned a new leaf.
