Soulless

Rating: 5/10 (21 December 2019)

I'm not a fanboy, I don't have a special relationship to the original trilogy even though I do appreciate them and accept them as timeless classics. They broke new grounds by turning scifi into family entertainment that could be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of your social status, gender, age or nation.
It's easy to blame it on nostalgia but I sincerely believe the originals are objectively better than anything I have seen in recent years, and that includes the prequels. Other than the visuals and the beautiful score by John Williams I don't see anything special here. The magic is gone, there is nothing left of what made Star Wars great in the first place. If not for the success with the original trilogy this movie wouldn't even make it to the big screen.
Disney don't have any respect for their viewers, as long as they see profit they couldn't care less what the general public thinks and this movie proves it.
Save your money kids.
