Dorathen Better Late Then Never

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

humbertodfpacheco This movie is quite amazing, but at the same time it is terrible, it has an amazing plot line evolving luke and Rey, but it falls flat in all of the other plot lines, the resistance vs first order chase plot line, Finn and rose's plot line is terrible, all of it, since the casino until Crait, overall it is this was a great movie inside a lot of mess, if it was more straight forward, cut like 1 hour and the jokes, it would have been the greatest movie in the saga, but it still has good thing in it. 6,8/10

aspie Let me be clear - Lucas' prequels were worse as movies, had worse performances and technically looked like poor CGI. But at least those movies helped to establish Star Wars cannon and lore. They added worlds and characters, and helped to expand the universe we love. The Last Jedi, in comparison, is a parasite movie. It rides along on the lore it inherited, contributing nothing while consuming everything, it uses up and destroys lore and characters, but adds nothing. It's bungling director clear had no idea he was meant to take the baton, then pass it on.The Last Jedi ends pretty much exactly where it starts, minus a few characters that were unceremoniously killed off. Luke Skywalker dies for no real reason, Snoke dies for no reason and without ever being explained. Basically, we're supposed to take this as a changing of the guard, except the new generation of Star Wars characters, Rey and Ren, aren't even a shadow of the great heroes and villains of Star Wars of yore. The movie is a long boring sequence of failed attempts to do things, which ultimately fall flat, and eventually leave you wondering what the point was. There's no real character arc or progression for anyone, Rey basically teaches herself The Force because learning from Skywalker would be perpetuating a patriarchal construct. Kylo Ren is utter flaccid as a villain, he mostly yells and strains so hard you're worried he'll burst a blood vessel. Everyone else's performance serves no purpose and could have been edited out without affecting the final result of the movie. The forced humor is cringy, the forced love connection between Rose and Finn is cringy, the casino scene is straight of a cringy Lucas brainstorming session. Worst of all, this movie leaves no reason to want to watch its follow up. The characters and mystique that could have been are dead and gone. Ryan Johnson didn't just kill Luke Skywalker off pointlessly, he killed Star Wars. I will not be watching the next one, and I strongly urge you to do likewise.

Nick-Goudy (uaz-78250) Star Wars (so-called this crap isn't Star Wars), Star Trek, Annihilation, Mad Max, X-Men, Ghostbusters, Atomic Blonde and Oceans *. Even the last so-called Thor movie had a woman bossing Thor around and kicking his read end (but don't worry Thor found his inner stand up comic side).Disney = Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

David Qvist I have nothing to add that hasn't already been said. The story is just wrong. There's nowhere to go from here. Just have to wonder how they could possibly let this happen... RIP Star Wars.
