I still lose sleep over this

Rating: 1/10 (27 January 2019)

I still lose sleep over how mad this movie made me. I actually stayed up, 10 minutes after I meant to go to bed, venting to my husband about what's wrong with this movie, and proceeded to stay up another 20 minutes after that fuming. So much potential, options, and freedom to take this movie in exciting directions of the Star Wars universe that was wasted to teach modern day lessons. Sadly resulting in a shell of a movie with no lore, emotion, or investment in characters or plot. I didn't think this movie would actually affect how I felt about other Star Wars movies, until I finished watching the original trilogy and found myself genuinely sad because I knew where the story would eventually be going, and how my favorite characters would end up. I won't be boycotting the new series yet, as I want to see where JJ Abrams will take the final chapter, but you can put money on me NEVER watching a Rain Johnson film, of any kind, ever again.
