Horrible, terrible, awful. From the moment the gimmick to bring back the Chris Pine character was revealed, this is a groan-worthy movie full of absurdly convenient devices, a ridiculous plot, a laughable villain, cheesy dialogue... the list goes on. I was all ready to love the movie. The first one was excellent. Also, Gal Gadot 😍 But even she couldn't save this pointless film. As bad as "Superman IV" and "Highlander II", and makes "Indiana Jones IV" look like a genius film. To be honest, the warning signs were in the trailer, which made me go: "What IS the story here? What's its center?" Truly, utterly disappointing. If there was 0.5 stars, that's what I'd have given it. An utter waste of time & money.

Deus ex machina. A whole pantheon. Best thing for me: the woven-in Carrie Fisher scenes. The score was quite good too. But the fact that I was paying more attention to the music...
