None of them gave positive reviews. And that's out of the first 10 or so reviews on this site. Not that the others were all positive, some were in the middle, others really positive. It's a divisive movie, some people enjoyed it, others didn't. But you guys are acting like the entirety of the audience did enjoy it. No, it's not fake news saying a lot of fans were disappointed ha.

Never once said that - on that first page I said right then it was going to be divisive but there is a difference between it being a “bad” movie and somebody not liking a movie.
My argument was with OutOfTheCube saying that people need to come to terms with it being a bad movie. That was a false statement. The critics and ratings all say it’s a good movie. If anything it’s the opposite for the most part it’s a good movie and the people that dislike it need to understand that they dislike what is a good but not a great movie for the most part.
And I have no issue with that - I get it and said it from my first point in this thread. If you love Luke and want to see him as the hero with no faults...probably not going to like his story arc for 2/3 of this movie. If you wanted more info on Snoke/Rey’s parents...probably not going to like this movie. If you hate anytime that Star Wars introduces a cute character for no real reason (looking at you Porgs) ... you’re probably not going to like this movie.
But all of those things don’t mean the movie is bad, it just means that it’s not the Star Wars movie that a lot of the fan base wanted it to be and that’s a fair criticism. Rian Johnson took this in a different direction than the fan base wanted and IMO honestly it’s going to be hard for a lot of the fan base to overcome that until we get closure on this trilogy in episode 9.
