Messy conclusion

Rating: 4/10 (20 December 2019)

This feels like a remake of Return of the Jedi. Safe filmmaking. No real gamble. The first hour is tough, just slow. Things ramp up for the finale, but Abrams and Disney have nailed that coffin shut. Uninspired film and meaningless. The storyline is just a tedious stepping stone for the so called fanboys that called The Last Jedi a mess. This is a real mess. It's a shame Johnson didn't write and direct the trilogy. This film has forced story beats for fan service and it hurts the film. Where's the risks? Disappointing conclusion to the trilogy and film in general.
