8 mins of good scenes!

Rating: 5/10 (24 December 2019)

There are at least 8 minutes of good scenes during the 2 hours and 22 mins runtime of this movie.
Star Wars fans such as myself will enjoy those 8 minutes, that elevate the experience of watching this film in a way that only great Star Wars moments can.
Fans will grab hold of these 8 minutes and handful of ideas that stick and for at least a little while they will allow them to try and believe that this isn't up/down there with the worst films in the franchise.
However in the fullness of time and repeat viewing, even the most diehard of fans will accept that the 100 failed other ideas, characters, clunky lines of dialogue, meaningless widget collecting computer game plot and terrible remaining 2 hours 16 minutes of film cannot be countered by 8 good minutes.
