Do this, do that. Got this, Got that.

Rating: 1/10 (20 December 2019)

Genuinely shocked at the terrible pacing of this film.
Forget the plot for a second. The film never gives you a second to think?! The characters do a thing, do another thing and blitz through the Galaxy to another thing in lightning quick succession and you feel limp watching it. The film doesn't breathe...at all?!
As an audience member, going to the cinema is a passive experience, it's the director aim to make you feel something. You have no choice in this film but to just sit there, take it and try to keep up this ridiculous plot. How can an editor work on that and think they've done a good job is beyond me.
Lightsaber fights are rubbish and have no meaning. The choreography is average, not worthy of the final chapter in the Stars Wars Saga.
The space battles are crap, the worst of any Star Wars film to date. No dogfights, no sense of danger. When a resistance person does get killed you're really not bothered.
Others will destroy this film for its narrative in depth. And it's all completely justified. It's a poorly thought out Trilogy of films that doesn't deserve the Star Wars title it has. But the pacing, this is appalling work by the editorial department and JJ.
