And I finally watched it....

Rating: 1/10 (7 October 2018)

For free of course, although my initial reaction after knowing all the facts was swearing never ever to watch it.
But there it is... I did it and I have to say it is not so terrible when you realise it is just a movie like others. That's the positive and also the huge negative... it is supposed to be STAR WARS., not just your regular blockbuster.
All that has been critizised by others in a much better way than me is there:
-The ackward and gross moments
-The totally misplaced and childish "humour"
-The junior acting
-The lame plot basis
-The lore destruction
-The disrespect and slaughtering of beloved classic characters
-The politically correct nonsense
-The claustrophobic galaxy setting
-The total absence of worldbuilding
-The continuous reuse, rehash or blatant plagiarism of old scenes
Let's not continue with the list because is potentially endless... sigh!
But as I said it is a movie, it is watchable and looks and sounds beautiful. But sorry sir, that's not all I want from Star Wars. It used to be something special, is not anymore. The essence of it has been ripped off and the only thing remaining is an empty shell that kind of looks like the real thing.... but is just that, an empty shell.
Well it is not totally empty... there is something of an essence on it... a putrid one though. A character, you know who, is totally destroyed and turned into something terrible. I totally despise that, like many others do. But I need to admit and say here that Rian Johnson had no other option, the character was damaged beyond repair by JJ in that abomination The Force Awakens. The character was done for then and in this movie he was taken in the only possible path that was left open for him... an ugly and dirty path, but the only option. At least that is consequent, have to admit it although I deeply hate it.
RIP Star Wars, 1977 - 2005
