... and came out mildly satisfied. I had two expectations of this film: (1) that it would be somewhat better than Return of the Jedi, which I consider the worst of the original trilogy; and (2) that it wouldn't completely retcon The Last Jedi. I consider it a modest success on both counts. Without getting into spoilers, I will say that while I have some issues with how The Last Jedi was treated by this film, it didn't erase it from existence.
As for the former, while there is a desire to wrap everything up with a pretty bow, it too, is somewhat tempered.
So, not perfect, but better than I expected.
