As mentioned before, this is our Christmas present to each other.
I'd received another 50% discount at Beefeater which expired Thursday and as we were busy every day of the week before that, then Thursday was decided to be our cinema Christmas date.
It's quite a long film and as we had Daughter, R and O here for lunch and the dog for the afternoon too we decided to go and eat first film second. This time the Tesco Clubcard voucher worked and we learned that you register your car in the cinema and don't pay the parking meter.
I'll not paste the story outline here as those who love Star Wars know it already and those that don't, don't care and to me it is far too confusing.
Seems there are 18 Star Wars films which started in 1977 with Episode IV and this most recent is Episode IX.
So story and maths aside, it was the usual mix of clever film making, loud dramatic fighting scenes both in spaceships and hand-to-hand light sabre battles, familiar music and the occasional very witty line in amongst the dialogue packed script.
As expected there were some amazing "other planet" creatures and they brought back many of the original cast in cameos or hologram messages and they even included the late Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia even though she'd died before this film had been written.
I didn't hate it and Hubby loved it.........now what on earth do I get him for his February birthday?
