Not mind-blowing, but a solid end to the Saga!

Rating: 8/10 (4 January 2020)

Ending the epic 9 part Skywalker saga was never going to be easy, and under the circumstances JJ Abrams does an admirable job!
The movie won't win any awards, the plot was quite simplistic and the narrative was light. Focusing too much on big visuals, and pace...not enough on the emotional bonds between the main characters, which is what made the original trilogy so appealing.
It did however manage to tie up all the loose ends, linking back to the original trilogy and had some wonderful nostalgic nods. If you are a fan of the Star Wars universe it does end in a very satisfying way!
