This is soooooo much better than I remember it being. Everything I was iffy on totally works for me now. It’s honestly one of the best Star Wars movies and really just one of the best blockbusters ever. Every twist is surprising, every dramatic beat works, and it’s the most visually stunning movie in the franchise since Empire.

She’s a great character imo. I really love this movie a lot.
