The vibe I'm getting is that it's underwhelming.

I know two guys who are absolute die hard SW fans, who hated TLJ. Both loved ROS. Apparently the beginning is a little rushed but everything else, to them, was perfect

I found it to be overall enjoyable, but there's plenty to rip apart if you're of a mind to do so.

Sounds like they spend 45 minutes making the kind of film 2 JJ wanted so they can do what he wanted for the 3rd film.

As I said in another topic earlier today, TLJ as a whole wasn't great but is full of some amazing moments

As someone who isn't into Star Wars in the first place, my suspicion is that it's probably a decent scifi action flick but in no way does it come close to the expectations from the fanbase as a suitable finale to the story.

Most of the bad reviews were people ready to bomb it because TLJ didn't go their way. RoS was very entertaining and alleviate some of the issues I had with TLJ.

So we're already entering the "only trolls didn't like it" phase? That was fast.

Friend watched it and thought it was okay. Told me to turn off my brain and watch for spectacle.

I've never found it in myself to do this. I'd rather watch something that rewards active viewing/listening, decidedly not this movie. But yes, there are some pretty visuals here. Zero surprises, though.

If you ignore the script/dialogue, the messy themes, the lore inconsistencies, etc, you should have an alright night. I know the only thing sustaining Adam Driver here is the check.

Star Wars fanboys will accept anything.

They would accept shit covered ice cream as long as it had a Star Wars logo on it.

Like another poster said, his two "die-hard SW fans friends" loved it and said the second half was almost perfect. Blind fanboyism won't allow many fans to see the glaring flaws.
