Stunning visuals can not fix bad dialogue and a good story lost and made choppy

Rating: 1/10 (24 December 2019)

Stunning visuals cannot atone for bad writing and story well-established in the first two films suddenly lost and becomes choppy. The thought that people are not just good or bad but gray becomes lost. The beautiful sentiment from Last Jedi that the force is for everyone even nobody's was lost and made Hollow.
The found family of Rey Finn & Poe suddenly in this film lacked chemistry and connection. The Rey and Finn and also the Finn & Poe connection well-established in the first two films was lacking. They had more screen time together but no depth. What should have been Han / Luke / Leia like banter and connection was some of the most cringe-worthy attempts at bantering. The friendships between the droids and their banter felt more authentic.
The positives for the film are the visuals and the stunning fight scenes, cameos and the tortured kylo Ren or Ben Solo character. Although it felt like he was too complex and gray for Disney to really delve into.
