I liked some of the goofy stuff in the first half (Luke drinking green milk from an alien tit, sad porg face, etc.), and the Snoke death was pretty shocking, but they course-correct everything in the final act, which is a dull flurry of safe, bland choices.

Adam Driver, though. Holy shit. He is stellar. And he is endlessly compelling in this role. I could watch him all day. His physicality, his delivery - just spellbinding. And he seethed so much brooding sexuality that it made it all the more disappointing when Rey didn’t go with him in that crucial moment. What a letdown.

Also, Benicio Del Toro. Oh my god. He lights up the screen every second he’s on it. Too bad he’s paired with Boyega and that GODAWFUL Rose girl. Yikes. They are both so bad. As is Laura Dern in her curtain and horrific purple hair.

Whoever thought it was a good idea to wheel Carrie Fisher out of her nursing home and prop her up so she could wheeze her way through her lines ought to be ashamed of themself.

Isaac is kinda wasted. Most of the Luke stuff is a bore. And, again, the whole final act lands with a wet thud.

Overall: Meh. Better than TFA, but worse than any other SW movie.

it was a character driven post lacking in any truly memorable cinematic sequences, and thus, ultimately forgettable.
