This review contains minor and major spoilers...
First things first...We are having 3 Star War flicks in a row plus an upcoming Hans Solo movie next year and a sequel, titled Star Wars: Episode IX, is scheduled for release on December 20, 2019.. Will the craze be finally extinguished?
What was the need of making this movie at 2 and 1/2 hours? Star Wars: The Force Awakens had a running time of 135 minutes and its flavor lasted better!
Opening sequence is deja vu. We have seen this for 2 years before. Kylo Ren, Leia's son, hesitates to fire at the lead Resistance ship after sensing his mother's presence but no remorse in killing his father?
Leia wakes up (while being frozen to death) with the use of her Force abilities and flies back into the ship. Wow...Superwoman? She should have been in a coma (no offense!)
Second, this is a continuation to "The Force Awakens". That's great. It picks up where Rey wants to be a Jedi. From this point, everything is so predictable. Luke initially refuses to train Rey. Have we seen this before? Yes, from The Shadow (1960); The Karate Kid (1984); Kill Bill Vol II (2004), Batman Begin's (2005); and even Creed (2015). Yes, even Balboa doesn't train boxers anymore but eventually does!
Next, is Luke teaching Rey yoga? The Force lesson was more of a fluke!
A wise man once mentioned' "When you read the the last page of the book, close it!" The sacred books were never shown to the audience. At least the writers should respect the audience's I.Q. A true Star War fan would have at least would like to have a glimpse of the book instead of being burnt!
Last but not the least, BB8 was the saving grace of the film. And will finally Rey love Kylo? My opinion is that she will be eventually be consumed by the darkness of the Force!
What have you done Disney? Hope seems like more unreal and monotonous. After the Force Awakens, the Force is going to sleep!
If you feel the same as I do, kindly support me by counting this review as helpful!
