An enjoyable romp

Rating: 10/10 (1 January 2020)

Having been a Star Wars fan for over 4 decades I entered the cinema with high hopes and those hopes were not dashed. This is a great conclusion to a not very well planned trilogy. Lucasfilm seem to have had no plan going into this other than let's have 3 filmmakers make a film each. This does seem like a strange plan for a trilogy. Although there clearly was no story plan J.J. and Rian have delivered 3 highly enjoyable and entertaining movies culminating in TROS. This film first and foremost is a great piece of entertainment aimed at healing some of the divisions from TLJ, which I loved by the way. I have read many a review on here basically trashing the movie saying once again it has killed the franchise, but I can honestly say the franchise has never been healthier I for one will be waiting with baited breath to see where in this galaxy far far away we get to go next. For now disengage brain and enjoy what Star Wars has always been about, having a fun time in the cinema
