I apologize for my bitter comments about the box office so far. I don’t want to be that guy. I’m honestly surprised to see widespread positivity about this one, and I don’t want to prevent that enjoyment from happening.
Like I said, I’m looking forward to seeing my own perception rebound upward over time, with the group’s help, hopefully.
I mean, you’re not wrong. It’s totally lacking in creativity, though I would argue no more than TFA. It’s short on thematic material except for some already well-trodden territory. But it’s so joyful in its schlockier aspects that I couldn’t help but enjoy it.
It’s punctuated with some genuinely touching moments as well.
