Why all the negativity?

Rating: 8/10 (25 December 2019)

This movie is fantastic! Take your kids, go have a good time :-)
If you grew up on episodes 1, 2,& 3, I could see why the nostalgia here might miss the mark for you. But if 4, 5 & 6 are your thing then this movie, and this trilogy, deliver well. There's enough tying together of storylines here to keep the most ardent fan happy. And enough creativity and fun to keep the little ones entertained.
Remember who Star Wars is written for, and enjoy it. Excellent sci-fi space yarn.
