  Really wanted to love this but it’s a bit too messy to rank any higher. Dev is a great visual actor, so this role fits him perfectly! Wish there were a few more passes of the storyboarding to tighten some things up a bit.

  Exactly what I expected, good not great. Several questionable decisions at the end that I didn't like, but nothing too terrible.

  Overall, this trilogy feels like a giant waste of an opportunity. The decision to take each film at a time, and build no overarching story before shooting the first film, is just shocking.

  If they could someone have, from the beginning, gotten Rian Johnson to do the plotting, and bring J.J. in to develop characters and direct, then this could have been something really special!

  The cast is great, glad that there was not too much of Clive Owen.
