Who has seen it? What did you think?

 

My 2 Cents: I thought overall it was good. It had it's amazing parts, It's useless parts, it's good parts and then some parts that were so ,mind-numbingly stupid that I spent a portion of the movie completely taken out of the world trying to process it.

 

It's my 6th favorite Star Wars movie. Better than the prequels, nowhere near as good as the OT or Rogue One and it fell short of the tone set forth with Force Awakens. 

 

I'm curious to know what others thought!

It was fine. Way too many fanboys/girls crying because of nostalgia.

The. Originally trilogy was a little more than okay at best. Idk why everyone hates the newer stuff. Their were great jedi before Skywalker and there will be great jedi after......Rey. and so on.

I thought TLJ was ok. I liked it probably on par with Revenge of the Sith, which comes after OT and Rouge One for me. Definitely better than Episodes I and II. There were fun parts and interesting parts, but it did have it's problems. There were parts, like TFA retelling ANH that were reminiscent of ETB, but not too on the nose. Most complaints I've heard were about 

 

Spoiler

Super Woman Leia flying through space, force ghosts being able to physically affect the world ie. Yoda blasting lighting out of his ass to burn down the Force Tree and Luke force astral projecting himself across the entire galaxy to distract Kylo/Ben from the remnants of the resistance so they could escape. You know, feats that no Jedi has ever been known to do before, but at the same time isn't entirely out of the question. And then the very Disney ending.

It did feel like Rian Johnson missed the mark on the themes/mood that Force Awakens set forth with the sequel trilogy a bit, and I'm sure some people were disappointed at certain revelations or things that certain characters did that seemed out of character. I'd give it probably a 5.5-6/10 overall.

I feel until we actually truly know what the force can do people will basically be using them as super powers.
