Bland and boring with blatant fan service splatted all over.

Rating: 5/10 (4 May 2017)

This is not a SW movie for me. Dark and brooding characters with no arcs or emotion, jarring editing, crappy score with no (new)themes and so obvious fan service it gets silly.
Why even do this movie. I didn't care how the plans for the DS was stolen before, why should i now. The SFX are good i'll give it that, except for Tarkin and especially Leia(shivers...). When Vader showed up at the end slicing ppl i just rolled my eyes. Don't get me wrong i love star wars(or at least 2 of the movies) but this isn't star wars, for me anyways. I liked TFA better than this.
Disney is 1 for 2 since they took over, and with an upcoming Han solo movie(which is a TERRIBLE idea) after Episode 8 i guess they are gonna keep that average.
Bottomline: The Star Wars magic was just not there...at all
