what's worse than a boring movie? A long boring movie

Rating: 2/10 (29 December 2017)

Good stuff: A) the last set piece scene at the mine, the red salt, the size and speed, Peter Jackson would have been proud. B) some of the chase scenes were good-ish C) some comic relief was good but the droid in the previous movie was way better. D) good chemistry between the two main characters, girly jedi and boyly jedi.
Bad stuff: (we'll go past the alphabet so i'll just list) incoherent plotting, stories just petered out, dialogue was typical George Lucas wooden, the whole set with the main evil dude looked like a Busby Berkeley dance musical set, super "high Dungeon" super silly, I was waiting for the guards to burst into song and dance. Also, jesus, the main evil dude was Sauron powerful, all seeing, knowing, wise-evil, no one/nothing has a chance against him yet he's undone by the laser sword trick, (where is Maxwell Smart when you need him?) And the acting....OMG, Mark Hamill sucks, I love(d) Carrie Fischer, but she can't act either. And why was Laura Dern in the movie? Her hair, hope she got paid a lot lot. What about the whole tracking through light speed travel plot thing, the whole battering ram cannon anti climax, how did this movie get made. I've never been a fan but I've moderately enjoyed most of the movies to some extent or other, this was just a waste of time, that is a kind of cardinal sin.
