Show, don't tell

Rating: 4/10 (7 June 2020)

Why does every character has to tell me what to see, think or feel almost on every scene? Did George Lucas though people wouldn't understand the plot? I mean, one of the main ideas of writing a script is "show, don't tell". Some times I can't believe how dumb these Jedi's seem to be. I thought they were one with the force... I remember loving the huge Jedi fight almost at the end, but now seems pointless and out of the blue. Oh, well. Surely plenty of fans will keep loving it. It's good if you're not really watching it and you just use it as background noise, that way you won't feel like you've lost two and a half hours of your time. Thank you Amazon Prime for that. Most of the action scenes still feel entertaining and maintain the tension, but you've got to endure for that. I miss George Lucas' obsession in making better cuts every certain time, because many times the CGI doesn't hold very well, some scenes have this video game texture and others you have the feeling the actors aren't in those scenarios. Flea jumping Yoda still makes me chuckle. A 00's kid classic.
2/5 stars
