They literally advocated for the removal of “that space battle $#@%.”
Can review shows jump the shark? =P
What’s wrong with that? I said the same thing in my review. The whole third act was ridiculous and eyerolling. The movie was over when Jyn’s father died. The writers screwed up and buried the climax in the middle of the second act!
How does that change what I said? The film was over when it was revealed Jyn’s father intentionally designed the death star with a flaw and then he died. There was no more story left to tell after that, because the first two acts were not about the Empire vs. The Rebel Alliance. They were about Jyn and her father and their stories. The rest of the **** was just tacked on.
