Excellent movie.

Rating: 8/10 (20 December 2019)

I liked it.
The movie kept me engaged throughout out, due to its fast paced adventure, plot twists and exciting story telling and visuals.
Though it revisited some older less original plot points, I thought it brought new and exciting ways to tell a Star Wars story that felt original. Smaller things like the new force powers actually felt like a natural fit into this universe, and just made me an even bigger fan of the universe.
I get that it's a bit rushed, which could've probably been solved by a 3 hour run time instead of 2,5 but it managed to connect both the sequel trilogy and the trilogies before it in a not at all perfect - but a satisfying way.
I enjoyed this movie like I've enjoyed every other Star Wars movie before it; A fun, exciting and heartfelt adventure set in a galaxy far far away.
