6/10 enjoyable
In an age of cinema where original ideas are often overlooked in place of sequels, remakes, adaptations from books and games. This movie feels no different. This movie has a feel as its from a book series, with an established lore and characters we all should know and love....... but it's not. I kept finding myself watching this and seeing the way they would introduce a new character and I would get this feeling like "awe thats so-n-so" but remember I had no idea lol. I felt left out, dying to know more.
As the story goes, I found it watchable. Yes it's a "star wars" knock off, but those in the know knew this was coming. Felt every Mandaolrian/Rogue One.
Cinematography wise the movie could have been 40 minutes shorter without Zach's "spartan 300" slow motion action sequence in almost every scene. I felt it slowed the pacing down, ejecting me from caring about what was playing out.
Another thing I felt was every distracting, and I am not sure if it was my ratio aspect or the movie but, while the characters up front and present where clear the background and around the center of the screen was blurry. More so then normal, as if it was an effort to exaggerate this effect.
