A fitting end..

Rating: 9/10 (19 December 2019)

Honestly, some people are too picky and want to rant about everything.. as a film, it's great. As a finish to the trilogy of trilogies, it works, gives closure and without spoilers reins in The Last Jedi and (I think) undoes the damage that did. Is it as special as episodes IV, V or VI? No. But I don't think films could be. What was achieved then was so brand new and touched a generation. More than one. But this film did all the right things and stirred up all the right emotions. I felt closure, even if I am sad the original 3 couldn't have done it.. Do stay clear of spoilers though.. Really essential. some really awful reviews from "fans" after the critics were really positive.. I was 6 years old when I saw Star Wars, fell in love with it, the characters, the whole thing.. The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi were massive as a young boy growing up.. I read all the movie magazine's, comic books etc.. Wasn't mad keen on the second trilogy, it had some good and some bad. Some characters were good, others awful, too much cgi, pretty ordinary casting for some, excellent for others.. Was so excited about the final trilogy, really enjoyed The Force Awakens with one major crap event by killing off my childhood hero. The events after that were a bit weird too the way there was no big reaction to it.. The Last Jedi.. Hmmm.. It did have some good bits.. but not all that many. Some of it was just plain crazy.. It ranks in my bottom 2, lets put it that way. This last one is a good film, it has a Star Wars feel. It works. If anyone has the right to be a critic it's someone from my/our generation and I'm not going to write hate about this film for no reason. Like I said, none will be as good as the original 3. Even George Lucas tried too hard to tweak them and did more harm than good. 3 words. Han. Shot. First. ðŸ˜‰
