Not what I was expecting

Rating: 10/10 (29 December 2019)

Honestly, I had faith in J.J because even though I wasn't a fan of TFA, it had potential. TLJ was a horrible disappointment to me and I lost all interest in this trilogy for a while. I liked the trailer a bit but didn't dare hope. Watched the movie tonight against my will (lol) and omg. I was immersed. It felt like my Star Wars with a just a dash of Final Fantasy and Harry Potter and I can proudly call myself a Star Wars fan again. I think they did every character justice, I'm glad Rose had a smaller role, I actually liked Rey?! I appreciate that she cried less than before. Poe and Finn are great in this. The new characters were great and I don't think that the complaints I've heard fit at all. Honestly, I loved this movie. It's in my top...4, at least! I can't say more than that the angry reviews are confusing.
