The best scene was darth Vader ploughing through hapless rebel cannon fodder in next to the last scene, I wish he could have been transported forward in time to put every last one of Rey, snoke, Kylo and company out of their misery.
I still don't get the point of the blind chanting man with a stick and his machine laser gun wielding buddy. If Rey destroyed any mystique surrounding the force with her Mary Sue abilities, the blind man appear to intimate merely chanting about the force gives one force abilities. I guess it's very zen.
But otherwise these two came, saw, and died. What the fuck?

I just saw it.
SO!
GOOD!
My only complaint was that the beginning was a bit rushed, but that passed quickly enough. Everything else just felt right.

Somehow I don't think it's chicken.
Maybe not but it tastes just like it.
