About
You’ll likely enjoy this darker, action-heavy Star Wars entry if you want big lightsaber confrontations and dramatic plot momentum; Not for you if you dislike cheesy dialogue or heavy CGI, especially compared with Rogue One: A Star Wars Story or Star Trek Into Darkness.
Pros: gripping lightsaber duels; darker sci-fi tone; lots of action | Cons: cringeworthy dialogue; CGI reliance; some disbelief
