It is evident now that the soul has been ripped out of the franchise. This is made all the more apparent with the use of socio-political tropes such as the attempt to further the SJW agenda - present throughout the film which began with Episode 7.

Instead of celebrating the Star Wars franchise by making full use of their new amazing creative opportunity and learning from George Lucas' mistakes, Disney's ego gets the better of them entirely. The film disregards their fans with a plot that passively mocks their intelligence, Disney then goes on to unprofessionally mock fans directly in response to negative feedback to their film on social media.

Unlike the so-called "professional" shill critics, viewers have the finger on the pulse as to what value this production and the franchise is now truly worth. This is already evident in the recourse of film boycott by fans when the Solo movie was released and went on to be a financial flop. Of course Disney and their paid media outlets blamed it on “Star Wars fatigue”. All said and done, unfortunately there isn’t much hope for Episode 9.

The intent of this movie is to tear down the old Star Wars. Anything pre-Disney was treated with disdain and disrespect. This movie is insulting.

Plot holes galore, poor humour, and really unbearable to watch midway. I've watched tons of movies and sadly episode 8 got me so bored that I was looking around and wondering when this movie will end. Sad to see the way such an amazing story go down like that. I am not sure if future shows will be able to redeem Star Wars. I sincerely hope it will.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't know where to begin. I was/am a lifelong starwars fan. Grew up watching the original trilogy. The prequels were "meh" for me, too much CGI not enough character cohesion/chemistry. But this.. this new Star wars by disney is abysmal. it is destroying the franchise, and the universe of Star wars.

1. The mary sue jedi is annoying as hell. So she just magically learns all these abilities because...? oh right.. GIRL POWER! smdh. apparently you can just be a jedi off the bat with absolutely no training. 2. they ruined Luke's character. Nay! assassinated his character. Luke goes from converting DARTH MF VADER back to the 'light side' of the force from only a tiny sliver of hope that he can save him; to trying to kill his nephew because he MIGHT be bad some time in the future? Are you kidding me? Who ever wrote this in, needs to get shot. horrible, just horrible. 3. Killing off characters (for some reason) doesn't always work as a shock or loss. Sometimes it just feels rushed and nonsensical. 4. Leia should have died in the movie, if they wanted to space her that is. Her magically having force powers (that strong) was silly and did nothing but break the immersion. Half the audience laughed at the scene, and it was supposed to be an emotional and tense scene.

5. The whole forced political PC/SJW thing is annoying, and the fact that they keep pushing this makes the movie horrible. There are so many moments where I was just like, "oh for the love of god..." that they take you out of the feeling and immersion.

6. The subplots are dumb. They use smaller crafts to go on "side quests" and keep returning to the space chase... why can't everyone just get on these smaller crafts and escape as such? Again, points to rushed/dumb writers. It's pathetic, and this also makes the movie a jumbled mess. 7. The bad guys (especially the general, who is supposed to be a threatening high ranking officer) are made into comical jokes. Everything is 'tongue and cheek' humor... forced into unnecessary scenes. were the jokes funny? some of them. Were the jokes silly and forced. yes. Nothing says "be afraid" of the bad guys like having the main character joking with them in dire scenes ... sigh...

How does Disney mess up the trilogy so bad when they had the books from the extended universe to base their story from? Just loosely follow the books, and BAM movie gold. But again, some genius (looking at you Kennedy) decided to stuff these movies with sjw drivel instead of focusing on the characters and plot.

Hope they got a good payday from Disney to waste there times in those films. It does little to capture the fun and adventure as the first 3 movies and any fan of these movies would have to agree that hanging out with Jar Jar Binks for hours on end would be preferable than watching this movie.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie is hands down, the worst Star Wars movie ever created. I am a star wars fan, and I will never watch this movie again, ever. Yes it's that bad. Main plot point is that a large first order ship can't catch up to a large resistance ship that is right in front of them.... WOW. Apparently none of the first order weapons or star fighters work after an initial clash with the resistance... WOW. And yes, this goes on for the most of the entire movie. Now let's move on to the character assassination that happened during this WOKE! star wars attempt at a movie. The main narrative for character assassination when it comes to this WOKE! fest is that MEN are completely incompetent. First up, Luke Skywalker is a putz. I'm sorry if you thought he was some strong, accomplished, battle tested leader. NOPE, he's just a hermit living alone, feeling sorry for himself. The film blames his absence for the first order even existing.

Anyone remember Dameron Poe from the force awakens? Military trained, Ace Pilot, Spy that understands the cost of fighting a monolithic oppressive force... NOPE, in this movie he is a toddler that apparently doesn't understand ANYTHING that they have been doing or fighting for. This stupefied version of his character is written so that Leia and Holdo can hold the toddlers hand and tell him to calm down and let the women handle the situation. Mostly because they have written him to rage and fly off the handle at every opportunity in the movie and he does. Because Men are beasts who cannot control themselves... obviously.

What about Finn from the Force awakens? How about we throw him into a completely unnecessary situation (entire casino plot) and forced attraction with yet another new female character that has zero appeal or chemistry with him on screen? Gotta hit that diversity quota I guess... I'm sure the actress that plays Rose is a great person, but the character itself serves absolutely no purpose in the film. The entire Casino subplot was a left political bent fantasy of the writers/producers and completely 100% cringe worthy.

I can go on but really, it was **** movie, with forced far left activism destroying any sense of actual entertainment value.

But it could be argued that this is not really a real SW movie anymore, it´s only on the name. Like other people wrote before me, it looks nice (hence the 1 star) but it's boring and way too often illogical/nonsensical. On a side note, it includes quite a lot of subliminal (and at times direct) political, economical and sexist propaganda. This in my opinion does not belong in a good fantasy film supposedly intended to entertain people from all genders, races and political orientations. Certainly it was never part of the SW universe before. But that´s not the worst part. There are many more other deviations in this movie from the SW that we all know and love: changes in old well stablished character personalities, in how spaceships work, in how the Force works, and a long etcetera. The director actually said he was doing everything he could to try to break the SW traditions and our expectations. He did achieve his goal unfortunately, and thus the film lacks any heart that makes a SW film. Why would Disney spend billions buying an incredibly loved and successful franchise and then allow a single producer or a single director to INTENTIONALLY break with the traditions and our expectations of such a valuable intellectual property? We loved it as it was (that´s why they had to pay so much money for it in the first place!) so why the obsession with changing it so much? Don´t waste your time with this trash. Metascore 85. User score: 4.4. That says it all. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I saw the movie on Day 1, but I wanted to let it cool off, let the controversy blow over and see what I think of it later on. That later on was over a year later, when the hype from both sides has died down and I could watch both it and TFA in peace and in unisono.

In short, I still think that TFA is good. Not excellent, but pretty good and stand on its own as a movie. And most importantly, it ends with opening full of possibilities for next in franchise to explore and build upon. As for TLJ, my opinion did change. For worse. In December 2017 I thought the movie was average, while having one of greatest cinematics, the plot was kinda subpar and characters were okay-ish. With the SW fever over, I can see that I was too generous.

The plotholes for me year + on were even bigger issue, as I cant but keep noticing them, just as I now can see the plotlines that I know will lead to nowhere, put up as red herring that wouldnt be forgiven even to junior director. The casino section is upon re-watching painful to watch as now I know it has no purpose what-so-ever, while at Day 1 I was hoping until last second that it will come full circle and result in something. John Boyega character is criminally ignored by writers, he doesnt do anything, doesnt have any good line and looks like a lost boy who has no place there and shouldnt be there. Squadering his last chance for glory at end is just cherry on top. Daisy Ridley tries her best with scrip she has and while of all characters is given most respect by writers by her having an arc (subpar as it is), it is kicked off its feet at every chance by director. Developing her skills? Nope. Showing us her internal conflict? Nope. Growing as a character? Nope. I detested usage of "Mary Sue" term in TFA, but here ... what else can be said? And Ridley as aspiring young actress deserves better than such poor treatment by writers, just as Hayden Christensen did all those years ago. Adam Driver has by far the best character in the movie, but when time comes to give him his own worth and arc, that is detached from cliches of movie industry, the director simply decides that is not the way and instead we have the cliche baddie who shouts a lot and obviously needs some yoga to cool down. At one scene he is proclaiming want for something new than rehashed sith and jedi dichotomy, offering Rey to build it with him and in next he is Sith lord shouting and screaming to kill "the rebel scum". Disappointing. Oscar Isaac as a character is utterly ruined by Laura Dern character, who wins the trophy of worst written character in history of SW, topping Jar Jar Binks. Rose Tico is there, and she shouldnt. Knowing that one of last scene that Carrie Fisher filmed in her life is levitating through space like a Mary Poppins is heart-breaking. And Mark Hammil obviously wants to play character of Luke Skywalker, but not this Luke Skywalker and no one can blame him.

The plot is non-sensical. Jokes are over-the-top, they wouldnt fly even in MCU in many instances. Any emotion that I should get from the movie are absent. I got teary at end of Rogue One. I got teary when Han Solo died. Here? Nothing. Luke "death" mostly angered me, because pulling inception of a red herring is just cheating. Bad one. All blames here goes onto director and writers. And in this case its one person. Ryan Johnson wanted to direct and write a movie, but he didnt want to do that for movie in a franchise so he just decided not to. And no one had half a guts to look at the script and say "no" to him, just like no one wanted to say No to Great Gorge when he thought that poo jokes are great Star Wars stuff.

And so after decades of disappointment and occasional joy, Disney finally done it. It killed any joy I had for future of franchise. I just cant seem to care anymore.

PS: Movie does get points for stunning visuals and Mark Hammil. Give people who did CGI massive bonuses. They deserve it. And Mark better script. He deserves it.

He is not alone, and the companions decide to seize the opportunity during his pause... and take the shot. The mother, and the rest ofA son is about to kill its mother. It already killed his father a couple of years earlier, so he hesitates. He is not alone, and the companions decide to seize the opportunity during his pause... and take the shot. The mother, and the rest of the people that was with her, get sucked up by the cold vacuum of space. All seems lost. But then, the mother, the leader of the resistance opens her eyes, extends its hand to the ship, and flies towards it! It's a miracle!

A soldier that has doubts about his loyalty to his commrades and their believes, decides to sacrife himself to buy them a little more time. He is about to get killed, proving everyone (even the audience) that they were wrong, and he is saved by someone, who prefers to take the shot instead of him. It's a miracle!

The resistance is trapped in a cave. There is no escape, as the tunnel just collapsed behind rubble, and the enemy will get them before they can get out. They need more time to clear the rubble. All hope is lost. But wait. Someone appears. A hero of legends! But he was in another planet, in another solar system! He confronts everyone, buying them the time they need! It's a miracle! Oh no! He was a ghost of some kind! We don't have enough time to clear the tunnel! They are coming for us! Wait. The rocks are moving! Are they... flying? It's Rey! She saved us! When did she become so powerful with the force? It doesn't matter. It's another freaking miracle.

Oh no! We were jailed! "I can get you out, and by the way I am a hacker of sorts". Oh no! They are destroying the little escape pods! Our post-leader just went light speed kamikaze and destroyed their fleet (even tough there is no reference it could work that way)! Oh no! Snoke is going to kill us! He didn'trealize that someone is force moving the lightsaber, until it's too late... and he dies.

Do you see the pattern here? In this movie miracles move the plot forward. Not the consequence of actions by the characters. At the end, the good guys are just lucky because someone up there ("up where?" you may ask in space) cheers for some, doesn't care for others, and is playing god. No character development, the set where the movie takes place seems more like an excuse, the bad guys are bad for the sake of being bad.

Oh no! They are making another one!

Honestly it starts off on a bad foot and just gets worse from there. Between poorly forced jokes that cover a veiled attempt to complete scenes and a lack of real substance in an exchange for 'twists' that achieve very little throughout the movie it simply seems to build to a point but chooses to fizzle poorly instead of creating opportunities for characters to truly grow and for the story to truly progress (whatever that might entail). But there is some good scenery every now and then within the three scenes in the movie I actually enjoy. Together those scenes all last around 10 minutes and I don't have much interest in the rest of the movie. Expand

Thanks for completely butchering Luke Skywalker and making a great hero into a child murderer. F U. Thanks for injecting your SJW agenda into a world that was once an escape from the drudgery of politics. Thanks for refusing to draw upon the wealth of stories from the Expanded Universe and instead removing it from canon, rendering 30 years of passionate work from authors and fans meaningless. Remember Kyle Katarn, Jacen Solo, Mara Jade, Kyp Durron?! None of them ever existed now. Yuuzhan Vong invasion? Never happened. What did we get in exchange? Some freaking Mary Sue? To hell with you, Disney. You have RUINED my childhood. I LOVED Star Wars. I LOVED the Expanded Universe. You had a responsibility to the fans who grew up with this franchise. In the words of Adam Sandler, "YOU BLEW IT!"

BTW, the movie is terrible, and full of plotholes, shallow character development, and cliches. These criticisms have been done to death elsewhere, so I will not repeat them here.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Had high expectations after Rogue One, thought the story line was going to be about Luke Skywalker turning to the dark side after becoming bitter about the loss of Leya. Instead we get a random space race with half the film focused on character who escape - then rejoin the escaping fleet?! This doesn't even make sense. Add to that a purple haird ultra feminist and space kamikaze at the speed of light and that's the film. Oh...and Luke vanishes into thin air at the end randomly. Complete garbage. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. People criticize Luke a lot by drinking green milk from that alien's **** but i assure you that this is nothing compared to the real mistakes this movie has.

- Bombs falling in space without gravity
- Poe alone destroying that giant ship
- That embarrassing scene of Hux with Snoke
- Leia Flying - All the annoying and messy arc of the casino
- The meaningless plan of Holdo, which seems to have been made just to bellitle Poe
- All that constant Marvel Humor that does not match with Star Wars
- Leia flying
- The Stupid Snoke´s death (worse than Boba Fett'death)
- The ridiculous choreography of the throne room (if you do not believe go review the scene carefully and you will see weapons desappering and the guards dancing)
- The dynamics between Finn and Phasma could be much better
- Leia flying
- Rose saving Finn like What the ****?
- The explanation why Kylo turned to the dark side does not make sense.
- Yoda burning the books, LIKE THE **** NAZIS!
- And of course Leia flying in space, like Palpatine floating on the Star Wars Battlefront II of PS2, at least emperor was doing it on the ground.

Ohh my Luke, what have they done with my luke? WHY? WHYY!!??

I just do not give zero for this movie because i do not want to belittle the work of the people who made the look and the sound, which was almost perfect, and the performance of Adam and Mark is also good.

I left the movie theater so confused, more confused than when i saw forced Fifty Shades of Gray, because of that movie i do not expect much.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was so bad it turned me off to any and all future star wars movies. there is not any one single reason that can be pointed to but several. Rian Johnson has no ability to write or direct anything this big or special to so many fans. He took a beloved franchise and pissed all over not just the previous movies but all the fans. From Leia being able to not only survive in space but fly like Mary Poppins was just wrong. The complete character assassination of Luke was horrible to watch. While i would never condone attacks on actual people the character of Rose Tico was just awful and unneeded. Rian Johnson ignored everything that was set up by The Force Awakens. He wrote his script before The Force Awakens was even completed and did not care about anything that was set up to have a great story going forward. I have no desire to watch anything star wars anymore and that is very sad. I was a huge fan. I bought clothing, toys, movie sets and anything star wars I could find. Now I don't even want people to know that I was a fan. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It destroys SW. It's an inconsistent movie, Finn saying hyperspace is not possible, and 2 minutes later knows all the details of it. The chase is absurd and boring, The First Order shouldn't have any problems sending more fleets just in front of them to cath them, also, they don't have faster ships? any civilian ship can outrun the first order if they don't have that tracker thingy? A dumb thing also, in the OT there's tracking. It's stupid that they only send 4 fighters to fight the Rebel/Resistance(they keep changing the name in the movie), they don't have more fighters in their 20 cruisers? Even in the OT we saw more fighters. Luke character is destroyed. Every plot opened in TFA is eliminated in the most absurd ways...The new SJW admiral behaves like and idiot, not telling anyone the plan for no reason, even when a mutiny takes place(you take Poe and tell him, he's no damm spy, he just destroyed Starkiller Base you moron, also, if there's a spy, the plan wouldn't work anyway). They treat Poe like a reckless idiot, but he actually makes all the good calls, he's demoted for destroying a ship that would've kill them all. They make Husk a joke(where are military leaders like Tarkin?), all the movie is full with stupid jokes in the worst possible timing, every serious situation has a stupid joke to ruin it. Rey is more a Mary Sue than ever, using force powers like nothing, defeating Luke, fighting elite guards after one day training, by herself, against a rock....Also, the worst fight in all the movies, no reason for it(what are the guards doing attacking Kylo? Is not their new boss?), full of mistakes, guards flipping and exposing their backs to the enemy, guards aiming to the air or the weapons instead of attacking the exposed heads of Kylo and Rey, weapons than dissapear, no force powers being used....A joke, and it's the best part of the movie, sadly. Canto Bight just a waste of time, the plot about selling weapons is also absurd, it doesn't make much sense that the Rebels and the First Order got different weapons from the same buyer, also, makes more sense that they create their own weapons, specially the First Order, they have the most advanced weaponary in the galaxy, that should come from their own I+D, no from buyers. Does the buyers sell Death Stars also? TFO can create Death Stars and not fighters? There's nothing to save in this movie but the visuals and acting of some characters, not worth spending more money on SW ever again, or at least until they say this movie never happened and make something coherent at least, I'm not even asking for good anymore.

While some of the effects were very good,some just weren't such as when the falcon is on crait shooting tie fighters and then flying through the planet.Just look at how masterfully done the kessel run from Solo is in comparison.
There are continuity errors,plot holes and the film has more tonal shifts than Revenge of the sith and from the very beginning it felt bad with it's out of place,space balls humour (the first order are meant to be frightening for god's sake)and awful,corny new characters.

Some of it was well done such as the stuff on the island with Rey and Luke and i thought their performances were good but what the hell have they done to Luke.
JJ Abrams was respectful and very careful about how he made the force awakens but Johnson has made a shoddy mess and taken everything JJ set up and everything that went before and thrown it out the window.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was awful but not for the general reasons involving wokeness and current year patriarchy bashing nonsense. This movie was bad because of the leadership both in the production and in the characters in the movie. Everyone involved in the writing process is out shopping. it is painfully obvious nobody in this generation was involved in any actual real world military. If we reduce the space opera to a World War Two Admiralty scenario, we can use the following parallel: Imagine you are a Navy Admiral in the wake of the Pearl Harbor attack. In stead of regrouping and reforming for a plan, you gather all the allied forces and retreat. Your Wing Commander wants to make a retaliatory strike, but instead of sending the proper tools for the job, you send the wrong aircraft and smaller boats and sacrifice all of them. You have a plan but you never inform your upper echelon and higher command structure. You continue to deuce out. You just run. Japan’s fleet is chasing after you and the remainder of you forces. Japan’s fleet is picking off your ships one at a time. Your Wing commander on the largest carrier comes to you and states he and the Air Wing can hold off and even destroy Japan’s ships with high altitude low risk bombing runs. If they cannot do this, they could at least kamikaze themselves and buy some time or at least cripple the enemy. YOU as the Admiral say “nah”. No explanation of why, because there could be spies around. YOU as the Admiral ignore the situation and just want everyone to stand in awe of your military tactical prowess by NOT telling your upper echelon and ENTIRE LEADERSHIP the plan and course of retaliation other than to high tail it to Sacramento or San Francisco. YOU as the Admiral share another plan to just stay the course and basically escort Japan’s fleet to mainland United States. You as the Admiral do absolutely nothing and take offense when someone takes initiative. You, as the Admiral, have your Fleet Wing Commander charged with mutiny when he decides to do his duty and his job by fighting the enemy. You do not fight, you do not attack, you do not bargain or surrender, you just stay the course. Then, 3 miles off the coast of California, you alone jump in a submarine and torpedo the enemy vessel. The attack was successful and the dreadnought was crippled, but now the enemy fleet is close enough to land. Japan makes a beachhead and commit to an invasion of California. Now the fleet is without leadership and the war was pulled to mainland US. Good job. You could have done this the whole time, or even remote controlled it into a guided weapon while both fleets were still in Southeast Asia or at the very least, torpedoed the ever loving crap out of the pursuing ships. Instead your incompetence and poor leadership led Japan to invade San Diego and take Temecula and Escondido. The remnants of the American fleet continue to retreat along with the rest of American forces back to the Rocky Mountains waiting for reinforcements from Kansas and Oklahoma. You have lost the war. Half of this movie has a side story where a whinny PFC begs General Patton to lead and then returns alone to Mary Sue leadership of the American Fleet. Two other equally whinny but hubris filled sailors attempt to find General MacArthur but their attempt fails too. Instead they found Bing Crosby and they return empty handed. Nothing they did had any impact on the outcome of the war. They wasted time and resources and everyone’s patience. The movie ends with reinforcements graduating boot camp as a Three Star General. This movie sucks. There was no point to any of this lazy writing and it is indicative of a generation and culture who has seen war on TV but never been to a war or had the threat of war in their neighborhood. Thank you for ruining Star Wars, Pumpkin-head and Hubris Medusa. Expand

Sadly disappointing.

Tons of plot holes, destroying Luke and Leia characters, main character is a Mary Sue (especially painful in SW, since other heroes had to work hard to get good in other SW movies), even some fight scenes were sub par (highly unusual for a SW movie), some incompetent leaders, lackluster bad guys (again, atypical for a SW).

Only good aspect of the movie, at least for me, are the effects. But visuals can only push you up few points in rating, not all the way...

I am not that big SW fan and that is probably the reason I am no going lower in my rating, but I can fully understand why die-hard fans are angry and are voting lower or even go with zeroes.

It's been nearly 17 months since the movie was released, and the gap has grown as the hangover from the hype set in. Fans, in droves, are realizing that they've been sold a bill of goods. This is one bad movie, not just as a standalone film, but especially as the middle chapter in a sci-fi trilogy. The nonsensical plot is basically Empire Strikes Back warmed over: we have a space chase story, we have a Jedi training on a remote planet story, and we do have an AT-AT battle on a planet covered with white powder which turns out to be...salt. The comedy is beyond clumsy: TLJ starts off with a prank call and a yo mama joke, and it goes downhill from there. The poorly-timed and cringe-worthy attempts at laughs just kept on coming, throwing off pacing, seriousness, and the overall feel of what is supposed to be a Star Wars movie. TLJ can be written off on that alone, but the complete waste of otherwise interesting characters, lazy plotting, lousy dialogue, lack of any logic, and the intentional disrespect of the source materials all scuttle this turkey. TLJ is so rotten, that the much-reviled Lucas prequels are getting a second look by the disenchanted fans. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a bad movie, but a terrible Star Wars movie. This movie suffers from several problems.

1. The humor. Some of the worst jokes. Star Wars is not a comedy. There are some jokes in George Lucas' movies, but at the heart it's a space drama/epic. The humor in this movie is completely misplaced. There's a "your mom" joke. That is how bad the humor is.

2. The destruction of Luke. Luke is basically crapped on in this film. Luke is a grumpy old man in this film and all of his character development from the original trilogy basically means nothing. He was HOPE, but now he is just a grumpy old man who doesn't care. He gives up and the reasoning doesn't seem convincing enough.

3. Finn and Rose. The chemistry just isn't there and the forced romance is uncalled for. I didn't see it coming at all and they randomly kiss? It was jarring.

4. Breaks the Star Wars universe. The hyperspace jump through the ships breaks the old movies. Why didn't they just hyperspace through the death star? What's the point of hiding the plans in episode 2; what's the point of making a weak point; what's the point if you can just hyperspace through the death star? Weaponizing hyperspace BREAKS space combat in every way.

5. Plot points introduced in episode 7 not followed up on. Rey's parents? No one. Knights of Ren? Not in the movie. Snoke? No one; he's dead. Luke left a map? Yet, in episode 8, he doesnt want to be found?

There are other issues, but these are the main ones. A terrible Star Wars movie.

I'm giving star wars the last jedi a 3 out of 10 because it technically is a bad film though it deserves a 4 or 5 if you love scifi but not starwars. I've waited many years to review this film which emotionally left me hollow on openingI'm giving star wars the last jedi a 3 out of 10 because it technically is a bad film though it deserves a 4 or 5 if you love scifi but not starwars. I've waited many years to review this film which emotionally left me hollow on opening weekend. It actually upset me in a way which I can't quite express. Like no other sw film , even the prequels.

As a sci-fi fan and a movie fan and a star wars fan I can't help but love the character and actor like skywalker and Mark hamill but this film seems to hate him and the franchise on multiple levels. Like the recent sonic film they choose in their arrogance to reinvent the wheel for no good reason beyond they could. It's a bad film and a disrespectful film to your time and money and memory. Though there is a half decent film under all the garbage and there are good fan edits out there. They usually have removed almost an hour of stupidity and left a series of impressive action scenes with some of our most beloved stars. Sadly one of those stars has been extinguished. For that reason alone the film is worthy of your time as Carrie Fisher delivers a solid performance. I enjoyed Solo. I liked rogue leader. I loved the original trilogy and enjoyed attack of the clones. The force awakens is ok i guess though seeing han get old made me sad. The last jedi is nothing like these films I like and love. It is not a star wars film despite the packaging and label.

I don't have much more to say beyond I was dissapoited in Ryan Johnson as director because I enjoyed his previous films for being popcorn fun. Jurassic park 3 is my fav film of the series even though it's again a technically poor movie. It was funny. TLJ tries so hard to be a whacky comedy and a political commentary and fails at both. I strongly recommend seeking out that fan edit and give yourself the sw experience you deserve.

mary sue wars Wasn't a great movie with lots of issues. It didn't follow through from The Force Awakens properly after it set the foundation for a fresh trilogy.
We still do not know who Rey's parents are after the big fuss from TFA, Snoke turns out to be easily killed and there were many decisions that could've been changed.
For Example, Admiral Ackbar shouldn't have been killed off so cheaply and he should've been the one who did the light speed run not Holdo who means nothing to Star Wars fans. Also, Luke should've fought Kylo Ren with a green not blue lightsaber for continuity's sake! There was no reason for him to have the blue one at all.
And finally, there is Rose. The bit when she stops Finn from "saving those who we love" by flying into the cannon only for her to claim that she is doing just that is just senseless.
I have to admit that it wasn't until I had come out of the cinema when I realized the issues with The Last Jedi. It certainly took a while for it to sink in given the high hopes I had after seeing Rogue One a year later!

After the disaster and pandering that was TFA, I waited for this on Redbox. It was stupid, confusing and the writing was awful. I'll probably just pass on the next one. Disney killed all enthusiasm I ever had for Star Wars.

The characters were not done justice, there are countless plot-holes and overall character development is missing completely. Johnson managed to make the worst Star Wars movie imaginable, yes worse than the Holiday Special, let that sink in. I'm giving the movie one point for its beautiful effects. Aside of that the movie is uninspired and is the first Star Wars film to not contain a memorable original Star Wars score. Guess even John Williams didn't know what to do with such a god-awful script. Expand

To fix the first of this trilogy they needed to find a way to make the villain threatening, and to give a reason for the main character to be the seemingly best fighter in the universe without any training or experience. Even though she has a natural bond with the force, luke, Annikan and every other Jedi who also had that needed to train for years to get good. What the movie did instead was randomly and easily kill off one of the villains and make the other question his evil ways. Then they made the only legendary character with a chance to be stronger than the main character a huge wimp. Then they made the main character even stronger despite her not getting any training. I wanted a movie about underdogs fighting a war to defeate a powerful evil villain in space. The main character is inexplicable the strongest in the universe and the villain is a huge unthreatening wimp, so there really isn’t even plot or meaningful conflict past a bunch of people whining about their emotions in space. Also strong female lead roles are a good thing in movies, but this goes beyond that to straight up policial propaganda that feels antagonistic towards males. Racial diversity is also definitely a good thing to have in movies, but rather than just having a diverse cast it is presented in a way that feels like a political statement is being shoved down my throat. I just wanted to see powerful, coherent characters fight with laser swords in space. :( Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie is an insult. Not just to the fans, not just to the characters. It's an insult to Star Wars. Plotholes, badly written characters (Rose, Holdo overall), destroyed characters (poor Luke), an idiotic story (ships running out of fuel? casino planet?), nonsensical things (since when hyperspeed can be used as a weapon? Since when ghosts can summon lightbolts? Since when the force allows you to fly in space?)...everything is just a kick in the nuts of what SW is. It's just like the "director" (that's what he call himself, I wouldn't...) Rian Johnson took everything SW was and decided to **** on it just to be different. Well, you know what Rian? You did it. You are different. You have directed what will be remembered as the worst SW related movie in history. Good job! Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last Jedi completely ignores all the plots and stories and the base its self on Star Wars and what the sequels were going to be. There was no plot development and ruined Luke fundamentally as a character, and decided to kill him(also in a stupid way) and kill spoke without telling who the hell he was. It also ignored and forgot the Knights of Ren and more. Just a poor movie in total when it comes to a Star Wars film Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie made me feel stressed, awkward, and disappointed. The movie is about failure and the characters’ failures are not due to inherent flaws, but because they make stupid decisions. Finn and Rose get caught by security on the casino planet because Finn crashed the ship. It was established in the last movie he was a terrible pilot. Once in prison they decide to trust an obviously untrustworthy guy, and it ruins Holdo’s plan almost making her sacrifice pointless. Poe had them go on the mission in the first place because he was overreacting to Holdo’s refusal to tell him the plan. He mutinies and ruins her plan, yet he is barely reprimanded. This does the opposite of endearing me to their characters.
I thought Luke’s portrayed was great. The explanation for how he came to that state was too vague. Luke and Kylo’s actions in response to this event seem extremely irational, hopefully we get more context in the next movie. I liked both this portrayal and his original heroic one, so I was very dissapointed at what seemed to me to be a half redemption. He saves his sister, but he fails to confront Kylo honestly or bravely. He humiliated him and died spreading an incomplete image of he was. The galaxy doesn’t need hope, it needs the truth. Luke wasn’t perfect, and that is okay. They should know the truth and continue to hope, fight, and struggle regardless. I very much disliked the way the movie portrays these final scenes as positive when I felt they should be bittersweet at best.
Overall the characters I liked from the last film were made to look foolish. They were at their best interacting with each other, but Poe, Finn, and Rey barely speak to eachother the whole movie. Kylo Ren has a chance to be a different kind of villain and chooses to do the whole “rule the entire galaxy thing”. Snoke’s death was genuinely exciting and this ruined it. There are about a dozen other things I could rant about, but I will end on a positive note. The acting is great and this is definitely the most visually stunning Star Wars movie yet.

This is far and away the worst Star Wars movie. Miserable story.
It contains wooden, nonsensical characters. It destroys what I loved about established characters (Luke and Leia suffer most of all). It contains woefully misplaced humour that does not land. It is completely tone-deaf. It contains the universe's slowest and most implausible chase. It contains the most pointless side quest in history. It contains plot holes that cause it to lose internal consistency (eg, Finn drags Tico across an open plain in front of a dozen walkers that are just standing there and survives, because?) and contrivances that break the established workings of Star Wars (The Holdo Manoeuvre). It contains political messages that bring you crashing back to our reality and have the subtlety of a sledgehammer and the crudity of the carbon-freezing facility on Bespin.
Spare yourself the misery of watching this movie if you still can. For me, its ruined any hope of enjoying this sequel trilogy at all and I will not be giving the ST any more chances to make me hate Star Wars.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are many plot holes in the film, but the biggest flaw is this: you can't make a hero's journey without the hero learning anything. Check, for example, Luke's learning curve in the first three films. The hero is encountered with the unknown, he goes into it, slowly but surely he learns, through many trials, what it is to be a jedi.

Now look at the plot structure in the new films (especially in this one): the hero already knows too much of the jedi powers. There's a total disregard to legacy. When the hero walks into a force trial of sorts, she only sees herself. In the previews film, she already knew some secrets of the force with almost no training. Here, the hero gets a free pass into becoming a jedi.

There is also the issue with the ideology that the film wants to set forth, and worst of all: diversity for diversity's sake. No. In a monomyth structure the key is having the heroes do their work, learn something and with that confront the ultimate plot twist before the resolution. Here I see very little of that.

Milking the boob of a space alien and drinking its green boob milk. The entire Casino scene and sub plot revolving around it. Flying Leia. Killing off Luke. Sorry, I can not bring myself to even give this movie a 1. I'm not the Force Awakens hater, I actually enjoyed it. It 'felt' like Star Wars. but this abomination? I wish they could pretend it didn't exist and have JJ make a new Episode VIII and then make IX as well. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's a complete abomination !

The movie is boring, disrespectful and an incredibly wasted opportunity in so many ways. Which they called "subverting expectations" and "surprising twists".

The main hero doesn't need to learn anything. She is awesome at flying, fighting, fixing the Millenium Falcon, reading/controlling minds, translating the wookiee language and everything else that is put in front of her. But apparently it doesn't matter why she is so good at all these things.

Luke became a hermit that lives by milking aliens, after trying to kill his own nephew and fleeing to an unknown planet. I can't even describe how disrespectful and unlike the original Luke Skywalker this is.

Their "training" consisted of secret talks with Kylo, scenes showing how powerful and open-minded Rey is, how disturbed Luke has become and flashbacks where he tries to kill his nephew. In fact, there is no training at all. There's something like two conversations about the force and the one that learns something by the end is Luke. Rey doesn't learn anything.

Snoke...it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter how/when/why he got so powerful, who he is, how did he get a massive high-tech army capable of conquering the galaxy,etc...

Neither the current director nor the past director knows who he is. All they know is that he is the big bad guy, very powerful, with an immense army. Whatever comes next, Ryan Johnson doesn't have a clue and doesn't care that much.

The rest of the film is a festival of boredom. It's full of fillers and plot holes, with a good fight, an emotional scene and many cringe moments.
I don't know how they managed to make such a bad and disjointed sequel, but they did it.
