What did I just watch?

Rating: 1/10 (17 March 2020)

This was hands down one of the most clichéd, most predictable, most nonsensical and most boring movies I've ever watched. I've seen worse but I've never seen a movie so blatantly ruin an entire franchise. None of the new SW movies aside from Solo was good. And even Solo wasn't "that" good, but at least it was a fun scifi action adventure movie,
So many plot holes, so many dumb decisions. Literally every scene had one or two clichés. It was so bad I accurately managed to predict everything 5/15 minutes before it happened. Usually it did not even make sense, I just guessed the most cliche thing that could happen and it did.

There is no vision, no love, no effort put into the script. Some of the visuals and locations were really nice. Some camera shots were done really well. But that's about it. The best part of the movie was the Rey & Kylo connection. But even that did not make sense. kylo suddenly seems to remember he has a mother and apparently he really likes her.
Also, I'm absolutely disgusted that they put Carrie Fischer in the movie. The CGI was ok, miles better than "the Irishman". But the acting, expressions her lifeless look, dead eyes and her one to 3 word lines were infuriating. They obviously just took sound bites from deleted scenes etc and used that to try and fit her in. It is comically bad. Rey is having "profound emotional moments" with Leia' while Leia just has a blank stare and replies with 1 to 3 word sentences. At one point Rey explains she has to go somewhere for something important. Leia replies with a single word ("no"). The way she says it, the tone etc doesn't even fit into the scene. Rey replies saying that she is going to do it anyway and Leia can't stop her. Leia then gives a super blank stare, says absolutely nothing and the scene ends.

Mickey Mouse s0domized star wars and made us watch. Shame on everyone that had a hand in this disaster.
