I see a lot of people complaining about cut and paste for this movie but I whole heartedly disagree. I am a huge fan of Star Wars and it’s extended lore and this movie doesn’t feel like a Star Wars movie. It felt very fresh. I think my favorite thing is it isn’t a sci-fi movie where we already know the ultimate ending, e.g. Star Wars, Star Trek, ect.
The plot was maybe not the most original, but it had some twists and turns that kept you intrigued. There’s a lot of mystery with some of the characters and their backstories that seem very interesting, and the main character herself does a fantastic job and being a true strong female lead. I’m excited for the second part, as well as the extended cuts.
