Seen it twice, was better the 2nd time.

Some plot holes/flaws... but on the whole a solid 8.5/10

Major issue for me was: It's another freaking Death star!

Also I felt disappointment when Kylo's helmet came off: Was expecting something a little more badass.

No interest in Star Wars. However; the new Tarantino movie is worth a viewing.

Going to watch it again tonight.

Ye they weren't very imaginative with the whole evil lair concept. And they destroyed it a bit to easily for my liking. But I suppose that that cannot be new orders main base as they will need to find where that big dude in the hologram hangs out.

Kylo seems a bit of a slapped arse and I think he unmasked a bit to soon and easily for my liking!!

Also, it was a bit crap that Fin went from a janitor, never even fired his weapon on his first day as a soldier, yet knew how to wield a light saber and gave Kylo a run for his money (who earlier in the film was throwing everyone around just with his power of thought, but couldn't use it on a janitor).

There were a few other things as well I cannot remember!!

What did you watch it in?

I watched it in IMAX 3D at the printworks and it was most definitely worth it!!

Deadpool next

Ah yes, but let's not forget kylo took a hit from chewies bowcaster like a g. It'd sent others flying in the air so by the time he was fighting he would have been seriously injured.

Having sid that, yes, he was force bossing the others earlier then loses out to rey who just says "the force" then becomes a freaking boss.

Because I'm a geek, I've read a fair few of the books and I know that the first things jedi's learn Is the force guard, which stops opponents knocking your sabre out of your hand. Rey would not have known this... minor plot hole but hey...

Snoke is supposed to be vadar's father... dun dun dun....

Bug the kylo's training isn't complete.

I thought it was everything the prequels should have been. Kylo seems a bit like Snape, too public school but it was quite good showing actual temper and rage which has always been lacking from sith lords

Watched revenant the other night that's hilarious
