Rebekah Perry

Not as good as the first one. THAT being said, my wife and I were so delighted by it, we saw it twice in three days. It's adorable; it's funny; it's the best heist movie ever; and the VEGGIE PORN. I don't understand how critics love the Paddington movies (the first one is execrable; we've not seen the second one yet), but somehow think Peter Rabbit is less clever, less fun, less adorable. Peter is superior in every way. The actors are charming, the animals are adorable, the story is never dull, and it's plenty clever without lacking in fun. We own the first one; we'll be owning the second one too. And we'll be there for the third one.

It was sloppy, rushed, illogical. The script is bad, the fight scenes in TFA and TLJ are superior, the characters are OOC. Rey is frustrating, Finn is shafted, Poe is not charming. Ren is boring (?!), Pryde is pointless. Hux and Rose are completely crapped on. She's in it for a few seconds, and he is relegated to a macguffin. The plot is a sloppy mess in which most of the elements are absurd. Like, this script is definitely co-written by the trainwreck that brought us Justice League and Supes v. Bats. Palpatine makes no sense, and the script can't even keep his motivation straight. It completely destroys the set-up k of especially TFA with it's nonsense. It's also incredibly, very badly emotionally manipulative. It add nothing to canon but kinda trashes it, actually? It also makes fold of it's Millennial characters and has the Boomers being right about everything. It was back Ren's desire for a new galaxy, Hux's desire for order, Luke's admonition that the Jedi were wrong, and the thought that anyone can use the Force. It's a hamfisted bad Disney romance with toxic messages for basically everyone. The only good things were a second of porgs, a second of Wicket, and the horror elements of Palatine. But on the whole, a trash movie by trash company trashing its adorable cast. I absolutely have an emotional stake in this, and I'm very put out, to say g the least.

Pretentious dreck. Handles its themes so poorly it inadvertently borders on tacky. It looks ugly, the music is atrocious, and it devolves into nonsense any time Willem Defoe narrates. Let's not even get started on the vocal coach. The accents are either non-existent where they should exist or are hopelessly overdone or sloppy that it's painful. I only finished this so my partner wouldn't suffer alone.
