I enjoyed it - it certainly isn’t a re-hash of what has gone before, and has taken some risks.
Surprisingly there were some CGI issues in a couple of places - though will be interesting to see if they are as noticeable on a 2nd sitting - or when eventually viewed at home.
I liked the humour in the main, the Canto Bight section didn’t quite work for me - though an intriguing end.
There were a couple of convenient plot stretches - like the CGI above - I’ll await a 2nd viewing to see if they are as noticeable.
Episode IX certainly has a lot to do - and wrap up (if it chooses to).
Very much looking forward to seeing TLJ again soon.
I think a few of the Fan Editors on here will be quite busy - given that the film may generate a few differing approaches and attitudes to what they would like to take from, and aim towards with, this movie…
