(Not at all) the Star Wars you remember!

Rating: 3/10 (20 December 2019)

I didn't care for this movie.. It started extremely strangely and abruptly and seemed to desperately attempt to retcon things after how TLJ left them.
The editing was off and badly paced, all through the movie. They would in very annoying ways jump between emotions and characters. The writing was also weak.
Especially because it was all just 'hitting the notes'. They were always just chasing the good old Star Wars moments you remember. Member the throne room? Member Lando? Member the Binary Sunset? Member Ewoks? Member what Palpatine said about the dark side? Member lifting X-wings? And on and on. It felt like they had nothing new at any point.
And yes, there's another superweapon. Yes it's even bigger and badder than starkiller.
