Having never watched Unbroken or Split I didn't quite follow everything, but it was ok - not a patch on the 6th Sense, however. M Night Shymalan hasn't really pushed on after his great start.

Star Wars - Rise of Skywalker.
Just brilliant, brought all the Star Wars films to conclusion.

Actually - it is...though me and Mrs Hogie have sat in the seats in the very Christmassy pub Law and Diaz sat in. I wasn't a very good Jude Law - my Mrs was a much better Cameron Diaz...nearly...
Still a pretty rubbish filum

I would of fully agreed before today, just another father/son day and nothing else I wanted to see, don’t really like these films that go on and on with sequels/prequels, but, but, this is just brilliant, ticked all the boxes, goes full circle to close loops with the original films.There are only three proper Star Wars films
Not saying there won’t be spin offs, but absolutely closed the book on the Star Wars films while, as I say paying respects to previous films.
Best film I’ve seen this year.

I've only seen the first of the most recent films and I fell asleep halfway through that lol, I'm not a huge fan of J J Abraham which doesn't help. This recent one has been absolutely panned by the critics from what I gather, saying that though I'm going to binge watch the last few films so I'm up to speed with this one for when I can get it on a stream.
Star Wars innit

We've only ever seen one Star Wars film and wouldn't have a clue in which order to watch them all now.
The order they were released ?. No sarcasm in that as the second trilogy are prequels but I think it is best to watch them in release order.

Wouldn't bother. Saw the first couple when released, thought they were crap then. Saw The Last Jedi on a company bash, didn't do anything to awaken any change of heart, still crap. I'd give them a miss if I was you, save a few hours of your life

That is HID's view after only seeing the one.
The problem is the original films were iconic for the time and so follow up films still tug on the heartstrings because they are films many grew up with. If you go into the series cold, looking at 70's and 80's effects through the eyes of what we are used to now then they will not age well.
Yoda is still a legend though, whatever era you watch him

In all honesty, like I put above, the choice yesterday was down to no other films I wanted to see and my son is a huge Star Wars fan (proper geek
).If you’ve never bothered with them then parts of this film would make no sense or you’d need your very own geek to explain the characters/plot etc.
But for those who are aware or have seen the rest of the films, then it’s an absolute must, really clever how they linked 9 films together, closed loops with characters from 4 or 5 films back etc.
As a stand alone movie
Sit back, switch the real world off and enjoy 2 hours of escapism, plenty of action, good story and enjoy.

Dipped into the DVD market and bought Watchmen Ultimate Cut in 4k HDR. Also in 4k as one boxset for £19 => Assassin's Creed, The Martian, Prometheus, Kingsman. Bargain.
It would be like watching the last Harry Potter film, Avengers Endgame etc without seeing the others. Okay but you don't get anywhere near the same buzz or depth.In all honesty, like I put above, the choice yesterday was down to no other films I wanted to see and my son is a huge Star Wars fan (proper geek

Exactly, thankfully we don’t all have the same tastes, I seen some utter sh!te with my lad, but got my own back when it was my turn to choose.
