This movie is ridiculous.

Rating: 9/10 (22 December 2019)

Reconned? Oh absolutely. Did JJ need to fit 3 1/2 hours worth of material into a 2 hour and 15 min film to make it all fly. Most definitely.
But also. There were so many good things. Palpatine. Ridiculous... but amazingly effective. The strength of Rey and Ren really carried this trilogy to a conclusion.
I've never felt like I was at a Star Wars movie during the last six films (and two stand-alones). Yesterday, I did.
I felt like a kid again. I'm not sure how J.J. pulled it off... but he landed the plane.
