First off I thought the entire concept was completely unnecessary from the start. Telling a story that did not need telling and we already knew the outcome and yes it is different than telling the prequels.
Found the whole thing boring tbh. The final act with the battle was good, but apart from that the film had nothing going on.
protagonists were terrible and unlikable apart from leias dad and the guy with the big fking gun. Torkin is always excellent to see but they probably should have used a new voice actor for vader. Jones sounds terrible now.
I like donny but I feel his character was a stereotypical Chinese dude giving out words of wisdom. Instead of chinese proverbs he just babbles about the force and dodging shit because he's blind (force sensitive right guys?). Couldn't he have been a normal character instead of some stereotype.
So much filler and stuff that messes with the continuity of ANH. This is brushed off by pretending the city wasn't destroyed but an accident. Why they need to test it on a city? I'm sure they already have weapons that can vaporise a city but can't blow up a planet because in ANH you see it being tested on a planet for real..
The whole plot line of the MC dad being the architect for the death star even though we see in episode 2 duku receiving the plans, making RnD redundant, which they establish in the film they would have built it without him anyway.
Some positives ithe final battle was good and it was a gritty for a star wars film, everyone died lol.
First hand Disney milking their new ip. So many stories they could have told; instead some ridiculous story of how they got some tech spec of the space station.
