Saw it today with my kids and really enjoyed it. A little sad to see Luke’s fate. To me the biggest problem is that these movies are set up as a trilogy but the big bad now is just not that threatening. Yeah when he turned on Snoke he solidified himself as evil, but he still comes across as a lackey. I don’t feel any built in tension for the next film because he just keeps getting beat. Frankly you tweak the ending and this would have been fine as the concluding chapter.
I didn’t think Mark Hamill had the acting chops to handle much screen time but he was good.
