Saw it today. To me it was almost overwhelming how good it was. My only complaint is the excessive humor. Most of the humor was good, but I just think for the sake of a consistent tone a few bits of it could be trimmed while the best stayed and the film would benefit.

Also I thought yoda looked terrible, not nobody else seems to mention that so maybe it’s just me.

I love the risks it took. I saw almost nothing that happened in this movie coming until it was moments away. (The music would start to give what was about to happen away and I would just be like "no… Surely they aren’t about to… Wwoah!) even accidentally the day before going I found out Luke was gonna die and even that didn’t happen how I expected.

I will echo others that there are some low points . Such as the casino. But the highs are just so high it almost doesn’t matter. The throne room scenes and snokes death were amazing. Some moments in this movie gave me goosebumps. I liked tfa, but this totally blew it out of the water.

8/10. (As much as I enjoyed 80% of it the excessive humor still can’t just be ignored. But this should be super easy to fan edit into a 9/10 with just a few trims). All it really needed to get a 9/10 was maybe more editing.
