Don't read the negativity...just enjoy a decent Star Wars m9vie

Rating: 7/10 (19 December 2019)

I'm a huge Star Wars fan and have been since I saw the remastered versions in the cinema in the 90s. At the end of the Prequels I remember leaving the cinema after Ep.3 feeling redeemed after the farce of Ep.2 and even though I didn't hate TLJ I felt that most would come out feeling the same. Unfortunately I'm reading some of these reviews and feeling no matter what happened in this movie no-one would be happy.
It starts with a display of JJ trying to jump start the trilogy back to where he envisaged the final chapter of the Star Wars Saga. The first 20 mins goes about 200 miles per hour so you can catch up with where you need to be for the movie. The story arcs of Rey and Kylo as resolved the only way they can and I have a sense of smugness being right from my prediction of Reys backstory from TFA.
Disappointed Finn took a back seat though and left a few bits unanswered...I suppose that adds to us speculating for years to come.
Don't go in expecting Empire...go in with a open mind and don't listen to those who want to be negative.
