Star Wars TROS- 8/10, it was everything i was hoping TLJ would have been. Just great fan service all around. I was glad that TLJ was pretty much ignored

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

There is some reality to it actually;
The backstory and primary features of Georges Méliès' life as depicted in the film are largely accurate: He became interested in film after seeing a demonstration of the Lumière brothers' camera;[15] he was a magician and toymaker; he experimented with automata; he owned a theatre (Theatre Robert-Houdin); he was forced into bankruptcy; his film stock was reportedly melted down for its celluloid; he became a toy salesman at the Montparnasse station, and he was eventually awarded the Légion d'honneur medal after a period of terrible neglect. Many of the early silent films shown in the movie are Méliès's actual works, such as Le voyage dans la lune (1902).

Star Wars TROS - 7/10
+Less cringey than TLJ
+ Some spectacular action sequences
+++ Babu Frick - The true star of the movie
+Rey/Kylo's story arc
+ Hilarious creatures
+ Great Pace!
-Pull outta yr ass super powers for some charachters.
-Still cringey sections that some grown adult approved of
If you hate this trilogy this movie is not gonna change yr mind, If u liked TFA but disliked TLJ then this movie will make up for it...kinda...no it won't ..but u might still like it.
