Delusion and Depression

Rating: 2/10 (4 January 2019)

Heroes are made not born...except on Jakku apparently.
In a galaxy far far away we can tell a story about almost anything. The horizon is only limited by the writer's imagination. Unfortunately for Rian Johnson his imagination is the spacial equivalent of a pet carrier. He droned on for 2 and a half hours about a low speed space chase interrupted by uninspired side plots that do nothing to advance the story. Rian repeatedly writes himself into corners and then bails out the characters with an ex machina, making for a low stakes snore fest.
The villains are laughably incompetent, the "hero" is literally the new definition of a mary sue, the legacy characters suffer a cringeworthy send off, and the egregious amount of poorly timed slapstick comedy sucks out what little soul this movie could have had.
