Ignore the negative hype!

IN A GALAXY NOT SO FAR AWAY, where Star Wars is more divisive than politics....
People who hated this movie probably loved the prequel trilogy. I have zero major critiques of this movie, but admittedly I generally love JJ Abrams' work. I thought this movie was the best of the trilogy, and I'm glad Abrams had the chance to bring his vision from The Force Awakens to fruition. I thought The Last Jedi was boring and out of place in the Star Wars universe. Abrams brought everything together without completely giving Rian Johnson the middle finger. He answered all of our questions and gave us insight into more details about force/Jedi/Sith lore. The movie overall was well acted, fun, exciting, and moving. I laughed, cried, and caught myself smiling several times. It was a fan' love letter to the original trilogy, and I can't imagine it coming to a close in a better way.
