Not a Star Wars movie worth
14 December 2017
Warning: Spoilers
I came back somewhat disappointed from the movie. The story itself is quite OK, but there are really scene's where I was thinking "WTF?" Thinking about the scene were Leia "floats" in space to go back to her spaceship (or when she "welds" the door open during the mutiny). The part where the rebel ship "cuts" the spaceship from Snoke (that is like 10 times bigger?) in two, and 99,99% of the stormtroopers dies except captain Phasma, Finn & his Chinese buddy. Even if I have to say this scene was pretty "wow", having no sound for about 5 seconds and afterwards a huge bang. Also these stupid jokes should not be included in a Star Wars movie imho, I don't know if this is due to the Disney influence but doesn't fit for me. Also these little "pinguins / birds" like are at the end with Chewbacca in the Falcon is probably a nice marketing character that will sell as hell in a plush doll. Special FX are of course stunning, the location of the last fight scene is also very nice, same with the one of the battle with Rey & Kylo Ren with the burning cloth falling down in pieces. I won't say it's a bad movie, but it's just not "epic" enough I think to be a Star Wars movie, I preferred Rogue One for instance to this one.
