The biggest, isn't always best

Rating: 3/10 (30 April 2020)

There's a lot been said already, not going to double up on that. Aside from the cringe and break of canon in the story and lore (new rules and plot without logical reason). But what I do want to add is this: Everything is so boring because of the magnitude.
It's with the entire trilogy really, for example; the biggest Death Star (ep7), the AT-AT's are bigger (they all shoot at once, all aligned), the strongest manoeuvre (ep8), let's do 9 Kylo Ren's!, a planet destroying gun on every star destroyer! (everybody is a death star!, and every stromtrooper is a female?!), I digress - l am the strongest force, I am all the Jedi, I am all the Sith, the strongest woman, the bravest sacrifice, the strongest healing, the most powerful jedi, the allest-strongest-biggest-mega-huge whatever. By treating it like that no wonder the magic is gone. I miss the smirky smart silly brave fun ways our heroes master a situation as they used to, as now everything is done with superhero megasmashing visual effects overkill. Making known things bigger isn't the originality you need to love a good fantasy film. It doesn't expand the universe. It feels repetitive, but without the magic. That's what makes it boring, as there is no fantasy left.
