The Nostalgia is strong with this one!

Rating: 7/10 (22 December 2019)

J J Abrams did the best that could be expected, given the Galactic cluster, that was Johnson's TLJ.
All the boxes were checked. Familial genealogy twist. Bad guy redeemed. Good girl resists the dark side. Etc.
Everything that was good about the original trilogy ( or related to the Skywalker/Solo name) has died or been relegated to the Star Wars old folks home. (Billy Dee). Overall this was a good movie, that should have been better. JJ has to salvage the franchise ending. It checked the nostalgia boxes, but was slightly unsatisfying. I guess I'm the original Star Wars fan version of a force ghost, shaking my head at those darn kids, from the cosmos...
