Lego Child

Rating: 3/10 (4 January 2020)

Jar Jar Abrams is like a child who has been given an expensive Lego set for Christmas. A child too young to follow the detailed instructions and instead smashes pieces together haphazardly. The child then presents this monstrosity to the adults who coo and praise over the child for being so clever but the creation isn't the Death Star, or the Tractor, or the Truck. The childs creation has all the right pieces but no finished product. And that's how I feel about the Star Wars IX, I'm like the parent, I'm disappointed. But I do have a modicum of respect for Abrams because that other kid next door, Rhian, couldn't even stick two blocks together.
