Agreed. Definitely not a masterpiece by any means, but it's really good and fun.

Yeah, its similarities to New Hope, while not excessive per se, did kind of show up a lot.

Well, it's got Rotten Tomatoes score
in the 90's (both critics and audience) and you usually have to be a masterpiece of some sort to get that high, so that's part of the reason.

It was great, but I wouldn't call it a masterpiece.
When I decided to see The Force Awakens, truth be told I wasn't really expecting anything special from it. Don't get me wrong, I've always liked the Star Wars movies and all of them as well including the prequels, but I was a bit skeptical about Force Awakens, probably because I'm not that much of a serious Star Wars fan or a fan in general. But when I finally managed to see it, it was much better than my first thoughts.
I will be honest though, to me it reminded me an awful lot of A New Hope. Now I'm not saying that it copied it or anything but it was a bit similar to A New Hope at least to me. Another thing is that it used more humor than any of the other movies, and I think they overdid it with the humor. And other than the obvious ones, there were quite a few call backs to the original movies.
But still, truth be told it was a great movie and I would recommend it to anyone. Again, calling it a masterpiece would be a bit of a stretch, but it was still a very good movie either way. Personally, I'd give it a 8.5/10
