Did you like A New Hope?

Rating: 5/10 (29 March 2020)

This film is effectively just A New Hope but with new characters. The film has some interesting aspects, such as Finn being a stormtrooper, but it fails in its execution of that. If Finn was a stormtrooper with potential to change, why does the last quarter of the film see the resistance mercilessly murdering them by the dozens, even hundreds?
Though, there's some pretty cool lightsaber combat in this film and overall it doesn't do anything terribly wrong. I'd rate it a 6/10 if it could stand by its own merits, but like I said, it's just A New Hope packaged differently.
