I read the female lead bashes capitalism in the movie, and it’s infused with woke-ism. Sorry, I’m not buying a crickety old man who now has one dimensional acting abilities playing a swashbuckling adventurer.
This is a sorry-assed money grab made for the hardcore fanbois who will bark like seals from the opening credits all the way through the finale in this CGI- infused mess of a movie, that tries to make a half dead bag of skin look like he’s 40 instead of 80.
It's at 52%, and critics normally love the woke/grrrl power bullshit. This movie should have started out with a score in the 80s. That it didn't is a bad sign. [Reply]

I've never trashed the Last Jedi. It's still my favorite of the ST.
Jar Jar Abrams is 100% to blame for the ST abomination. [Reply]
"We didn’t realize how good we had it with Kingdom of the Crystal Skull."
Jesus.
EDIT: SPOILERS
Aw man - is it gonna really commit the GREATEST sin of the TLJ? Are they really gonna just make the central theme of the movie "Hey, your childhood heroes all ended up miserable husks just waiting to die as they aged..."
There was a lot about TLJ that sucked. But that was the absolute worst part - everyone that 'won' in the movies you loved, pretty much lost from that point forward. [Reply]
