Just got back and I’m not at all ready to deliver a verdict. It wasn’t love at first sight for me like it was with TFA, but TFA had a lot less to process. I’m going to try to see it again before the end of the weekend. On first viewing of both TFA and R1, I had trouble settling into the rhythm of the film, and this one was no different. Now that I know the general shape of it, I think I’ll have an easier time letting it sink in. It’s also just a much weirder movie with a lot more going on, and that’s going to take time to figure out. The best analogy I can come up with is that if these movies were Beatles albums, TFA is A Hard Day’s Night and TLJ is the white album.
