Pleasantly Surprised, But. . . .

Rating: 7/10 (29 December 2019)

I went in with REALLY low expectations. After leaving the previous installment feeling completely bummed, I left this movie with a revived sense of nostalgia for the days "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away". There were moments that were not cohesive between the mood and the dialogue, which I thought were a little awkward. Overall, i thought that it was a solid movie. Was it the best one? No. Was it even close? No. But I felt a small tinge of the excitement I felt as a child when watching 'A New Hope', which is all I ask for from any Star Wars Sagas going forward.
