Recycled Plot put a damper in this movie.

Rating: 6/10 (25 April 2019)

No matter how well constructed this movie is, the plot is just too similar to the previous franchises. The writers made no effort to be creative, zero imagination whatsoever. No new enemies, no new challenges, instead, they recycled the old enemies, they go the easy route of reviving the Empire, now know as The order, so maybe they can sell more storm troopers and tie fighter merchandise? X-wing and tie Fighter are just lazily reworked, rather than designing something more radical, three decades should have made more advances in the republic! Sure they brought back the old characters and surprisingly they are just icing in the toppings and have little contribution to the overall plot, except for Leia to suit their political agenda of third wave feminism. The only good thing about the movie is fairly well act, special effects are great and some minor nostalgia values. If you are looking for something new, just skip this movie and wish it never existed.
