Return of the Form

Rating: 9/10 (18 January 2020)

After the disappointment of the last Star Wars outing, here we see something of massive improvement. It's exciting from start to finish with some excellent action scenes, special effects and emotional moments. It crams a lot in but this movie can be watched again multiple times.
At the end of the day, what does a Star Wars movie have to do? Be fun, exciting, full of action with characters you care about. This has all that. The negative reviews are often adults in their late 40s / early 50s who watched Star Wars as a child and now want the same feeling. Truth is, you can't because you are watching it from an adult perspective, you are analysing every scene, and coming out with comments such as, that's impossible, daft, the physics is wrong, the force can't do that, that character wouldn't do that etc. You know what, when you were a child, you watched it, enjoyed it, then went to play with the action figures.
I'm in my mid 40s but watched it for what it was supposed to be, and I will in future watch it again.
