Gave it some time....

Rating: 3/10 (26 December 2018)

And it was still weak. Weak in plot, weak in character development, and weak in dialogue. I have watched the original trilogy well over 100 times each. The prequels, dozens of times, and even the force awakens over 10 times. I've read the EU as well as the new canon. There is no connection between those movies, those stories, and this movie. Rian Johnson just cannot tell a story. No real Star Wars fan cares about blue milk, they care about Rey, Luke, Ackbar, and a good story. RJ challenged nothing, he just turned the movie into a political statement. The"brilliant" admiral holdo comes up with using light speed for the first time to destroy a ship? Ridiculous. Even if I could get by that, it should have been ackbar, not some random woman, just to be a woman. Leia? Why have her use the force for the first time in a scene that reminds everyone of Mary poppins. The whole scene about "mansplaining" is ridiculous. It goes on and on. RJ should just not be allowed to direct movies, any movies.
