It doesn't deserve the hate!

Rating: Null/10 (23 December 2019)

It was such a big nostalgia trip with amazing character arcs coming to a close, intense story, beautiful cinematography and the best way I could have thought to end Star Wars after the train wreck of the Last Jedi. It does have some flaws with a few moments that were slightly cringeworthy and forced. However, I will always remember everything in the 3rd act and every characters arches were completely convincing and believable. With the late Carrie Fisher I was worried that they wouldn't be able to carry on Leia's story or kill her off screen but her time is balanced and the cgi is completely believable that a times I forgot about it. Overall, as a Star Wars fan for many years I am so happy with the ending and have a new film to add to my collection that I am happy to own and cherish it just as I do with the characters and this world that was created 42 years ago in 1977 (which I got the reference to the festival in the film). Thank you JJ Adrams.
