Contrived, limping plot

Rating: 1/10 (9 May 2020)

False drama and meaningless side-swapping abound. Possibly more disappointing than Jar-Jar, this finale to the Star Wars saga was lacking in any character development, has no stakes and the meaningless kiss at the end undermines the already patheticly thin heroine that is Rey.
A trick was missed in the potential to use this film (named for Ben Solo surely?) to see the downfall of Rey coupled with the redemption of Kylo Ren. 1 star may seem a little harsh but if you chose to watch this heartless money grab of a film I think you'll agree.
