BETRAYAL

Rating: 1/10 (22 December 2017)

This movie is the clearest and most heartbreaking example of industry betrayal of its fanbase and its actors. After seeing Mark Hamills face after the premier of TLJ you can see a man in utter shock. It was heartwrenching. Having now seen the film myself I feel the same way, they have taken a sledgehammer to the entire franchise, tactless, offensive and politically motivated this is a cynical deconstruction of the mythos and rich history of cinemas most revered franchise. Disney, LucasFilms, Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson will carry this stigma for the rest of the lives, they won't particularly care, nevertheless this is their cross to bear. I've never seen a film that left me more disheartened or angry at the industry in all my life. Horrible doesn't even describe it. Ideological crap spouted by people who should never be allowed to make a movie again.
