So, a friend went to see this movie and insisted I go and report back 🙂 I tried to enlist a couple of others to go with me but (actually 4 others!) no one would go with me. So what do I think?

First, overall, gave it a 6 out of ten. A lot of the dialog I couldn’t hear or understand so that hurt. Visually? Some of the scenes were incredible! Some seemed like were throw backs to some of the other Star Wars movies.
The movie bombarded me with sight, sound and chaos! I did tear up a couple times close to the end. I did doze some at the beginning. I am glad I didn’t opt for the 3D version…it would have been overwhelming I do believe!
I’d like to see it again to look and understand some of what I missed in this first viewing though.
Looking at the other reviews, I think they agree with me.
