Came in expecting to hate it. Came out satisfied.

The plot feels a bit muddled up until the final act. However the movie does explain some plot holes while creating others.

The way they built up the characters felt better than both the previous movies and it felt like there was real conflict in the characters. Finn was constantly being left behind by Rey but still followed her up until the end where he himself went alone and let the troops escape. Poe's past was more looked into and before entering the final act we saw him moaning the death of Leia before leading the Resistance into battle as valiently as she would. Rey and Kylo were the most interesting. There characters were almost intwined. They would always speak with Kylo pushing Rey towards the dark side. It all came to a head after Rey nearly kills Kylo and he realises what he's done is wrong. He then has a final chat with his father before coming to save Rey from the Emporor. The conflict of Rey is from the dark side pulling at her. And at the end when the Emperor (her grandfather) gives her a chance to kill him, save her friends and become a Sith. With Kylos help she rejects him and gathers the strength to kill him. Then we see the conclusion of Kylos character as he gives his own life for Rey's completing his ark. Rey's ark finishes on Tatooine as she accepts herself as a Skywalker.

The action in the movie is great. But by the end of the movie there are still a few unanswered questions.

My main issue is the frequency of the movie tricking the audience giving the illusion that a fan favourite character is dead.

Great Movie

I liked the character designs. It felt like you were inside the Pokémon world. The characters were interesting and the comedy was great. Only issues were how it jumped between locations without much context and some cliché movie tropes. Other than that it was a amazing movie for a Pokémon fan!

Pointless Sequel
1 August 2019
Warning: Spoilers
These movies are just mindless copies of Toy Story which follows the general illumination trend of having as low a budget as they can to appeal to an audience of children who will laugh at any old squishy yellow children. It follows three story lines. Only 2 of these matter to the story and the other just pads out run time. Its villian is so mediocre with no motivation and is the least recognisable part of it. Then there's the story of instead of a new dog a new baby. The only twist is that Max is to over protective. Only interesting character is the farm dog. Just a mediocre kids movie.

After watching the live action movie and watching this I remembered how much better this movie was and just wanted to say it.

Looks good but can't say much else

The CGI looks amazing but leaves me wondering what about this movie is actually live action? The characters don't express much emotion and their faces don't change due to the realistic look. It was just average all around and I don't think anyone would rather watch this over the original. I just wish Disney would stop making these live action movies.
