Well I took the family to see it. I dozed off somewhere in the middle. We were all pretty bored.

Quoted from TigerLaw:I agree. For many people Star Wars is an event, a family event at that. Someone who spends $100 on tickets and concessions and gets their family of four all out to a movie at the theater is going to say they enjoyed the movie when they walk out...that is just how the human brain works, call it confirmation bias or whatever else (same reason why we who buy a NIB game are likely to rate it highly).
This movie has hurt the SW franchise long term though. Episode IX and Solo will not have anywhere near the buzz and built in positive feelings. In big franchises like this your box office performance has almost as much to do with how good your prior movie was as it does with how good your current movie is. The XMen franchise has many good examples of this phenomenon.
We spent $54 for tickets and concessions... I'd rather have my $54 back. I hated it. Last star wars movie I'll pay to see in theater. I thought near the end I would at least get to see a really cool light saber battle with Luke. But nope, just some weird astral projection thing, then he disappears... Ummm, OK.
