Sorry but I liked it

Rating: 8/10 (31 October 2017)

Let me just start out by saying I am a huge Star Wars fan and I know how much of an atrocity this film is compared to the rest of the films, but the bar was set so high with the other ones. I know this is the worst one besides AOTC, but it was still very enjoyable. I may have even given this film a 9 had it not been for two particularly annoying characters (I'm sure you all know who I'm talking about). I'm a pretty big fan of Liam Neeson and Ewan Mcgregor and I thought they were good together, not as good as Finn and Rey or Han, Luke and Leia but not bad. Darth Maul, I thought, was a terrific villain. I wish he would've been utilized a little more in the film, but the battle at the end really highlighted how bad-ass he and his dual saber are, you know, until he dies. Not perfect by any stretch of the imagination and certainly a disappointment not worth the 2 decade wait, but still very enjoyable.
