Just saw it for the first time and I really liked it. JJ did it justice and cobbled together the story after the disaster that was the previous movie, The Last Jedi. I laughed and I cried; I was engaged throughout the movie and I felt like I was saying goodbye to some old friends. I could see where JJ borrowed from some other popular franchises for dramatic effect, and where he may have repurposed some previous scenes from the franchise as he did with The Force Awakens. But it was all good. And for me, it worked. I will see it again at least two more times in the theater, and of course when released to DVD and streaming. If you're a fan, you owe it to yourself to see it on the big screen and pay homage to the end of most of the original cast and storyline and learn to embrace the stories still to come with the next generation of Force users.
