I guess its ok? Forgettable - but ok.

Rating: 4/10 (15 March 2018)

I'm not a Star Wars person. When I saw this movie in theaters, I hadn't seen any of the other Star Wars movies. The only reason I went to see this movie was because I was dragged along by pretty much my entire family. Due to all the hype around this movie and the good reviews, I was actually planning on enjoying this movie. I didn't.
Sights and Sounds - This movie is relatively well shot. Most of the effects are ok. The sound design is pretty bad, and its pretty hard to understand what the characters are saying most of the time.
Plot - The plot is simplistic and full of holes. The first half of this movie is somewhat decent, but after that it quickly falls apart. A lot of the character motivations are flimsy. Overall, aside from a few scenes, the script is terrible.
Action - The only thing that kept me from screaming at how stupid and illogical all the fighting tactics were was the fact that I was in a movie theater. The action in this move is so bad. I'd heard that they're bad in the previous movies - but that's no excuse.
Characters - Most of these characters are extremely unlikable. The only one I liked was a robot (K-2SO). The characters are dumbed down and infuriating. The acting may be good, but the script isn't. If you don't like watching stupid people run across a screen, I'd recommend skipping this movie.
The more I remember about this movie to write this review, the more I remember how bad this movie is, and the angrier I get. I guess fans of the series like this movie, but I just couldn't. The characters are stupid, the action is terrible, the plot is boring, the effects are sub-par. I don't think I'd ever willingly watch this movie again.
