But what did you enjoy about the film?


Really? Okay.

Space battles, lightsaber duels, space wizards, great action, dramatic twists, basic arguments of good v.s. evil, nostalgic cameos, the explorations of more Star Wars lore, new characters, quirky aliens, cool vehicles and starships, a storyline that emphasized it's bad to deify heroes and obsessive over legends, the shirking of expectations, and a satisfying explanation for Kylo Ren's character.

I mean, that's the whole fucking point of Space Operas, isn't it?


I'll give that the battle in the beginning was dope, but there were no good lightsaber duels in the film. The Praetorian Guard scene barely counts and it was dull anyway, and the final battle that should have been awesome was a copout.
In an odd way the movie was both incredibly safe but exceptionally obtuse, answering questions nobody asked, cutting off the vein of questions that narratively required answers, and asking questions nobody cares about the answer to.

Did love the crystal foxes, though.

Awful review. You didn't understand the movie.


My bad. I'll watch it again.
