I just got back as well.
I liked TFA and strongly defend TLJ as one of the top 3-4 films in the franchise.
What did I think? I thought it was pretty good actually.
It has its issues, but it’s not the trainwreck the reviewers are making it out to be.
I suppose the leaks are true, and I can see people being upset if they read a synopsis, but the execution is alright. They really did Rey and Ben right in this one.
Oh and I don’t recall seeing that much lens flare at all RU.08. The JJ lens work is pretty subdued.
