The movie was amazing. By far the darkest of all the Star Wars movies, but also the most realistic in that respect. No jumping down garbage chutes or miraculous escapes for the heroes.

Also, if there was a gay couple or any "political/PC" overtones I did not see them. This was a flat out smash em up shoot it out action movie.

In fact the only truly political aspect was the Rebel leadership being very quisling and wimpy which basically caused a small group of true patriots to take matters into their own hands.

Agreed! Great action movie, inspiring as well....Hope is always a good thing and can motivate people to do extraordinary things despite overwhelming odds!

As far as any Politically Correct BS....didn’t see any...if you’re going to go to a movie looking for that, you will never be able to enjoy anything.

Suggest that anyone who wishes to see this movie just take it as it presented! It is thoroughly enjoyable!

I found it fairly boring and predictable. It seemed like forced acting with characters one cannot connect with - could not escape into it at all. Yeah lots of special effects and people dying - but escapism like the old stories did? Nope.

IT’S A CONSENSUS!! FReepers loved it and I shall go see it.

Thanks guys.

I’m terrified of going to movies these days because too many times money is thrown down the tubes 10 minutes in, after you realize it’s an abysmally left wing movie!
