Embarrassing, Messy, Disjointed..............disappointment of Phantom Menace proportions

Rating: 4/10 (16 December 2017)

I remember leaving the cinema after the Phantom Menace......In a kind of disbelieving silence, I never thought the cinematic experience could disappoint me to that degree again...............I was wrong.
The film starts of badly and never really recovers. Rian Johnson has delivered a fetid seasonal turkey of a movie that doesn't feel right on so many levels.
I would never have believed it possible that a film of this length could add so little in the way of character and plot development, it is in fact a regressional step and one which I feel has totally destroyed any chance there may have been for episode 9.
You know when you get someone exercising their critical muscles....someone inevitably shouts-"lets see you do better"?
In this case-as far as the writing goes, I'm pretty sure I could have.
Will I go and see it again?.......NO.
Will I buy it on BluRay?...........NO.
Will I stream it?......................NO.
