[QUOTE="Dantooine, post: 522514, member: 5046"] Just got back from the cinema. I enjoyed a lot of it, but towards the end I kind of zoned out. Bar a few dodgy scenes everything up until Rey heads of to Ach Too (or what ever it's called) was pretty good. Her wanting to hide away from the Force because she's a Palpatine makes sense but was way too rushed. The scene with Luke was pretty bad (though him catching the Lightsaber is a middle finger to Rian Johnson). Kylo Ren and Reys relationship was one of the best things about the film. His redemption was also fairly well handled. Again McDiarmid was great, having fun hamming it up - I thought he looked really good and the soundtrack was excellent in that end sequence. But it was really messy. The last third didn't really work for me. The space battle was boring ( Return of the Jedi has yet to be beaten in that department) and the whole recycling of the ending of RotJ with the Emperor trying to temp Rey whilst her allies crumble was really badly done. As was her returning to Tatooine and that terrible Hallmark greeting card image of Luke and Leia. It's the best of the ST and much better than I thought it would be. I liked how early the Emperor was introduced, the hyper skipping was great, Rey actually (almost) killing Kylo, Han turning up, Cheweys rescue, the little fella that works on C3-PO, the banter between the main characters, Lando. Lots of enjoyable stuff, too rushed and should've been spread over two films. Rian Johnson really ****ed this up. Btw, The Mandalorian is waaayyyyyyyy better. [/QUOTE]
