So... A geek friend whose opinion I trust attended an advance screening last night.
He does movie reviews for a local publication and often gets to reap the benefits like this.
He's a tough critic. He hates the prequels, dislikes Jedi, mostly likes Rogue One, and is lukewarm on The Force Awakens.
He declares Episode 8 to be "perfect," and he confidently ranks it alongside The Empire Strikes Back.
Take that for what you will. I'm seeing it tomorrow regardless, but now I'm even more psyched knowing that he gives it such a favorable review.
Please do not post spoilers here or anywhere on the Forum. Thanks!

Saw it today. Agree and agree. 5/5. So much I’d love to say, but, well, spoilers. This is a movie you’ll need to see for yourself to believe.

Man. It was a great film. If you go to see one film this year, TLJ is the one.
Bring on Episode 9.
