I've avoided all spoilers thus far, so am pretty excited. Some of these reviews have me a bit nervous though. Describing the film as the most "original trilogy" of the new films sound a lot like the reviews that came out post-Attack of the Clones, where the studios actively tried to cover up an atrocious previous film with lame fan service. The "constant action" was also how they described Solo, which was hot garbage.
It also seems a lot of the negative reviews are coming from critics who don't want to admit they were wrong about TLJ. It's one think to say you liked the TLJ, it's another to state that you expect a better reaction to it than any movie besides Empire.
Anyways, for better or worse, I have my tickets for this Thursday at 7:30 PM.
