Not good

Rating: 2/10 (27 December 2016)

I know that I will be in the minority on this one, but I found this movie to be boring and the characters to be flat and uninteresting. Perhaps we were expecting too much, but we left the cinema with my wife and I both saying how awful this movie was. Forest Whitaker, who is a great actor came across as a caricature and brought nothing to the movie. It seems like he should have played a much larger role, but it looks like much of his performance may have been left on the editing room floor.
Even Mads Mikkelsen who is a tremendous actor seemed uninterested and brought little to the screen.
The fact that none of the truly famous characters we saw in the last movie play a role in this one meant that they could have skipped making this movie in its entirety.
It seems to me that this was simply a way to extend the series and extract as much money out of the public as possible.
Honestly, I would not recommend this to any movie goer. To me, the only people that are rating this so highly are die hard Star Wars fans whose lives revolves around the series.
