To be completely honest, I’m not a fan of this movie. Well, I absolutely adore the Throne Room stuff but despise everything else. So I was curious to see what...

I've now watched a handful of edits of this film. And, sadly, I think I'm at the point where I'm ready to concede that, like the prequels, this just can't...

Overall I enjoyed this much more than the theatrical. It’s way tighter, the editing is terrific and the IMAX escape from Jakku is a thing of beauty. ...

There’s no way I could write an unbiased review of this movie at this point. I’m fairly certain the movie fails as a stand-alone work as it spends too much...
