Entertaining and not as evil an entry as made to be

Rating: Null/10 (26 December 2017)

I went into film being a huge Star Wars fan since A New Hope. The bashing the film gets is unwarranted. Rian Johnson took things into a new darker direction. If you go into a Star Wars film of all films to analyze it to death of course there are going to be a lot of disappointments and disagreements. Watch it and enjoy it for what it is, a form of escapement. Growing up I did not like The Empire Strikes Back for its dark overtones and what I thought was the killing of my favorite character in Han Solo. Since I've become an adult and have seen in hundreds of times I don't care about plot holes like is Lando's security cyborg still locked up in tower with stormtroopers while they escaped.
I get negative reviews for all the films. Not everyone likes everything. The only difficult thing I had getting by was how Adam Driver was supposed to be the son of Han and Leia when he little resembled either. When you get past the things you may not care or be troubled by realize the director and writers were given an impossible task for any normal person and they succeeded on so many levels. Give the negativity and over analyzing a break and go to primarily enjoy it with whomever you're with. My wife and young kids loved it and though dark and more violent than most Star Wars films we had a great time watching it together.
