Unfortunately, at the moment that's dosen't look like it's going to happen soon... Their was only 7 of us there.. Never mind, on with the review..
Ok, this is an interesting addition to the Star Wars saga.. For starters it's a stand-alone film.. It's dosen't have an episode number (if it were to have one it would be about 3.75 taking into account Star Wars Rebels). In this film Steven Hawkins first wife (Flick Jones) teams up with Button out of Open Range (Diego Luna), IP Man (Donnie Yen) and bunch of other geezers and they set off to locate the plans for a Super weapon. This said weapon proves to be a right pain in the planet (for this film and the next). If I have to explain it anymore, why the hell are you reading this blog for..
I went in hoping for another Force Awakens.. It wasn't.. But that's not a bad thing. After the initial slow build up (Iceland looking sweet as per usual) it really started to build momentum. Like The Force Awakens, anyone who loves Star Wars will find a lot to like in this film. This is almost like Star Wars for adults (no, not that sort of film). It's definitely got a grittier feel to it too ***Spoiler*** People die.. The final 2/3rd's of the film romp along and the special effects come into their own during some epic battle scenes.
My only real gripes are 1) the missing star crawl at the beginning of the film and 2) a certain CGi resurrection which just didn't work for me..
Those aside though, I really enjoyed this film..
