I enjoyed parts of the film but there was much that didn't need to be there. The Casino planet was a waste of time, Pod racing without any excitement. Snoke was the new Dart Maul in underused characters, although the red room fight was really good.
As for the Porgs they were as as bad as I feared but at least didn't get the full Jar Jar airtime.
I did like the Skywalkers storylines and how Luke was a broken grumpy old man and Leia finally found her force powers when her life was ending, as a Skywalker she should have been able to tap into the force far more.
I enjoyed the space chase in how it showed how shielding work and why capital ships need to get up close to get around them, while fighter ships can fly through and how they can be a danger that could be used to destroy the likes of the Death Star when larger ships and their weapons don't work.
I need to watch it a few more times to decide how I actually feel about it, liked the spectical of the first watch but the second watching left me feeling there was too much baggage thrown into the film.

I honestly can't think of a single moment I enjoyed, maybe when Luke finally sees Leia... that's about it though and I don't see myself watching it again tbh
