I liked it......but I am a little sad.

I have to say the move was well put together. Also......there was not the typical happy ending. The movie was solid, and was a emotional roller coaster.
OK......I have two complaints about the story. #1 I waited since Return of the Jedi, to see Luke totally use his master Jedi skills to crush and kick ass! This never happened.....at least not the at you think it would. #2 I would have liked to see Fynn use some of the force in this movie. They hinted at it in episode 7, so....what happened??
We all watched episodes 4-6, and seen Luke become a Jedi, but he only fought Vader. He became a master Jedi, but we missed all his battles and training over the years. What a let down in this story.
Rey and Leia both showed a lot of promise and skills, and I liked how they were portrayed.
Over all.......it was action packed, and fun to watch. It was dark at times.....well most of the time. Seemed hopeless mostly. Also the movie gave us fans a lot to ponder, at the hints that were dropped.
The movie was not written for me or the fans, and the directors vision was realized. I hope the fans will eventually get some much needed satisfaction from this series. I look forward to the next episode.
