Finally, a return towards the original trilogy!

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2019)

I haven't enjoyed a Star Wars film this much since Return of the Jedi (I was 8 years old when I saw it in theaters). I endured the prequel trilogy, and endured the last two films of the recent trilogy. In my opinion none of them were able to capture the thrill and atmosphere of the original films. I went into the theater with my enthusiastic Star Wars son with low expectations (except for the thrill of seeing Lando again!). This film was so much fun! I am thankful for the bad reviews because having my expectations lowered even further made the film even more enjoyable. The ending was perfect. I know this film is divisive and that is why I feel compelled to write a positive review. I've been waiting for a film like this since I was 8 years old. I'm looking forward to seeing it again.
