my first review on IMDB

Rating: 4/10 (9 April 2018)

I am not trying to compare this movie with the previous ones as obviously they are different.
The CGI wasn't too bad, the action scenes were entertaining.
I just didn't enjoy the character build up or lack of. The direction of this movie seemed as if they knew Star Wars itself would make money so the effort in creating characters we can like or understand was a total fail, for me. I just wasn't "compelled" to care for any of the characters. The decisions made throughout the movie was rather frustrating.
How I usually rate a movie is, will I watch the movie again tomorrow, or next week? With this movie, it may be another year for me to watch it again.
I usually have movies that I like/love running in the background while I go about my night, this won't be a part of that list.
I hope they do better on the next movie, however, I wont be watching it when it comes out. I'd rather wait a few months. I'm just not jumping for joy in the direction they are taking the star wars story.
