  • Even though that says non-spoiler I think 30 minutes on this will tell me more than I want to know in advance. Love that people are excited enough to watch a 30 minute review, though!

    Seeing a lot of bad reviews

    The New Yorker was particularly harsh.

    That tool also claimed Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith are the two best Star War movies and set the bar. He is either trolling or high on mushrooms. Either way his credentials as a movie reviewer need to be revoked.

    I liked it a lot. Lots of cool easter eggs and nods to hardcore fans. My girlfriend enjoyed it too and she is far from a big fan. Don't go in expecting Force Awakens. It's a completely different style of movie. Dark and violent. Kinda surprised Disney green lit it. The battles are crazy and the closing sequence is maybe the coolest thing Star Wars has ever done. Probably give it A-/B+ and that may go up on subsequent viewings. I'm very pleased and looking forward to seeing it again.

    Unnecessary and drawn out dialogue.... F, almost ruined the movie

    Definitely the most "adult" of the Star Wars films. It was good. They could have edited the movie more strictly and made it 15 minutes shorter I think...but it was good, terrific ending.

    F? Cmon, it's a brand new movie with brand new characters. You have to build some story and background on them.....
    I thought the film overall was fantastic. The first 30 or so minutes was slow, but like I said new characters need time to develop.
    I put in #4 behind Empire, New Hope and Force Awakens.

    I'm going to hold off on ranking it. Let it breathe a little and I also need to see it again.

    It was pretty bad at times. I actually rolled my eyes a few times. Better pacing would have improved the movie. A few instances of very bad writing too.

    Overall, i thought the movie was awesome. They could have cut through some fluff and knocked like 15 minutes off... and also maybe cleaned up a couple portions of the plot... it would have dominated all the others.

    Was supposed to see it this morning but a project came in for work and had to cancel. So disappointed and not sure when I'll get a chance to go see it now. At least Fandango gives refunds.
