This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie completely destroyed the storylines set in motion by The Force Awakens. I am so disappointed and can't believe anyone signed off on this script, much less filming this garbage. The Star Wars franchise and fans deserved better, I hope that Rian Johnson is barred from ever touching anything Star Wars related in the future. I now have zero interest in what happens to these characters, as a 40 year Star Wars fan (I'm also a fan of other Rian Johnson films), it pains me to say that.… Expand

Saw the movie this past weekend at my local theater. Wanted to rate this a "0" for completely ruining Luke. Instead, I'm choosing to give it a "1" for pretty much completely ruining Luke. Terribly disappointing film.

This movie is jokey and disrespects any serious Star Wars fan. It would be kind of like the Rolling Stones started doing hip hop. Although, that may be more interesting.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The way they made this movie made me so mad, especially on how they devolved this movie with poor subplots that made little meaning, and to many underdeveloped characters that make you care for the little about their characters, and finally on how they made of the legacy characters into a joke from the original series. NO!!! Too many unanswered questions that leave you to ask more question at the end of the movie. I'm sorry to say that I would not want to see another Star Wars movie again. This rating should have been a 0 but I do give a 1 because of Mark Hamill.
P.S. If you want to watch a real Star Wars Movie watch the original Star Wars 4, 5, and 6.… Expand

As a fan of the movies, books, comics, etc. this film got a lot of things very wrong. Now, fans are left wondering how the force or physics in the galaxy far, far away are even supposed to work. The Last Jedi destroys the hero of the series, makes the end result of episode 7 seem pointless, and manages to really back the franchise in a corner by implying that there will be no more Jedi, which is a major drawback to the future of interest in this galaxy. At first watch I think people will be entertained by this film but not long after the show is over it is far too easy to find glaring mistakes in the plot that are infuriating to any hardcore fan.… Expand

The last jedi's biggest problem for me, is that the over all tone just doesnt feel like the adult star wars bad ass movies we have gotten, even through the prequels. This was a little kids disney movie complete with so many poorly timed jokes and slapstick humor you lose track of the actual plot lines. My second biggest issue is the plot holes. George Lucas is called many things, but his team did a good job covering all of there nerdy plots because they know that nerds and fans love to debate star wars. And they did a pretty good job minus some things here and there. This movie was made by people that either are very out of touch with its fan base, or they are trying to change there fan base from nerds to more general public. Because this is not a movie meant for nerds. They dont even try to make the science make sense. They dont try to make the plot line up with the cannon of star wars at all. This is a movie for the general public to laugh and have a good time. If thats what disney wants to make star wars then so be it, but myself and the long term fan base is probably not going to stick around for another movie like this one.… Expand

Like you might do whilst watching a really bad stand up comedian or your uncle twerk dancing with your auntie at a wedding. WTF!

The opening scene with Poe and Hux felt like a Christmas Pantomime. All tension evaporated the moment he pretended to be on hold. DREADFUL! I didn't mind the Porgs or BB8 but serious evil and heroic characters should be just that. Luke seems to have been replaced? Mark Hamill was playing a guy called Luke. But it wasn't Luke. I didn't mind him being a recluse or grumpy. The trailer looked moody and cool. When he appeared in the film he was an unlikeable douche. AND HE MILKS A SPACE COW!! He is LUKE SKYWALKER not a bloody dairy farmer! I feel sorry for MArk Hamill. He has been betrayed. I can see why he disagreed fundamentally with the script. AND WHAT was with him chucking his lightsaber over his shoulder. It felt like a blooper they decided to keep in! I think that one moment is a brilliant metaphor for what Disney and Rian (Comedy) Johnson have done to the Star Wars legend. Jedi Training!? Rey received NO training. I get more training at my Monday night Yoga class in Peckham than she received. Yet all of a sudden she is a Jedi Master WTF. I LOVED Empire Strikes Back becuase as a little boy I got to learn how to be a Jedi. How to use the force. I learned through Yoda about the dark side and light of human nature. Here Luke makes a lame Joke about reaching out! UTTER garbage. Train the girl. I wanted Rey to prevail from a struggle. Zero character arc and as a result I dont give a Monkeys. SPACE WALKING LEIA! Did no one say anything to Rian! Not one person pointed out that that was a crap idea. No One mentioned Mary Poppins! O........M........G that was bad. Visually it was great. But the writing and the characters was awful. Get Garth Edwards back! At least he understood the Star Wars Universe. The last 3 minutes of Rogue One were better than the entire Marvel-esque gag fest that was Last Jedi. Why not get Get George R. R. Martin to write it! He'd do a fantastic job. At least he'd understand the human condition and struggle. I liked the political message! I liked the diversity. But all that has been flushed down the pan with the most expensive SNL skit in history. BOOOOOOOOOOOOO… Expand

It's been a week since I've seen it and I am still confused as to what the director was trying to achieve. He hoped that people would be surprised by how fun and funny the movie was, but the humor was just awful and misplaced and took you out of the seriousness of the scenes and the situation.

I thought the Luke and Rey stuff was "alright" and I just wish there had been more screen time given to them, instead of that stupid casino scene which was completely pointless to the plot. I think they're absolutely brilliant actors and they didn't utilize them enough. I felt like they could have done more with the already established and meme friendly characters as well. They could have added way more emotionally traumatizing scenes using those characters, I was almost ready for that. I don't mind them ending the old stories and reinventing Star Wars, I was ready for that as well. But what I ended up seeing was this hollow mess of a film. Like they wrote 7 different stories for the film, cut the scenes up into strips mixed them up and glued them back together and said "that'll do!". I didn't think any of it was clever, I didn't wrestle with my morals, I didn't feel any emotional resonance with any of the dramatic things that happened. It was just frankly ridiculous to the point in being comical in places (Leia). Most of the important scenes are just copy pasted from the old films but done way worse. There are continuity errors ALL over the place. Huge swathes of the plot were pointless to the point I was left exhausted 2/3 of the way through the film, I was ready for it to be over before the last act even started. Some of the random plot props they through in also made no point or sense (the books in the tree, we'd never seen them before so it made no impact). I think getting this director on was a complete mistake. He wasted so much potential. The GOOD parts of the film were the Graphics, the start was a pretty good space battle. I wish there were more interesting and visually appealing scenes other than the Casino, but the plot left no room for that. A couple of interactions between Rey and Luke were funny or interesting and left you wanting more. I really wanted to enjoy this film or feel something for this film, but the only thing I felt was disappointment. I'm quite jealous of the people who did enjoy it and don't judge them in any way, but now I'm really worried for the future of films in general if this is what critics think is a great film. Valerian had more of a star wars feel than this was, it had more charm and characters and great opening scenes and establishing shots that made it a believable universe and was in general much, much better. Not perfect and a bit long but it was still coherant and none of it was pointless. Oh well..… Expand

The plot wasI was bored coming out of this movie and could have walked out of the cinema several times (if not for the fact that I had paid a lot for my ticket). Judging this purely as a movie and not 'a star wars movie' it is still awful. The plot was incoherent and uninteresting, the characters were two-dimensional and uninteresting (in spite of some good acting). I could not care less about any of the new characters (noting that by contrast I was very entertained by Rogue One). The writer/director has very effectively killed off any curiosity I had about the SW universe or the characters within it. As any SciFi fan knows, creating a rich framework/setting for the story is essential, you need to feel as though you are looking through a window into something much bigger and more interesting - this movie fails utterly in this regard. There is now no reason to be curious about any of the characters or the larger SW universe (which now has no continuity and makes little sense).

Yes, the visuals and sound were great in TLJ, but you need so much more to make a movie entertaining. As someone who is not a big SW fan this was just a bad movie. The interesting thing is that so many people seem to really like this film despite all of the major flaws in plot, script, humor and character development. Forget whether or not this was 'good fan service' purely as a movie it really stinks!… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm not a ROBOT & posting only once. I frustrated the narrative in the news is that these negative reviews are false. This is a real review. ** SPOILERS AHEAD** I saw Star Wars in 1977 with my dad and I was 10 years old, so I have loved Star Wars for 40 years of my life. What I liked:
The battle with Kylo and Rey in Snoke's thrown room. I like how Snoke was assassinated sort of like what would happen in Ancient Rome. The problem is that Kylo is not a fully developed character toward total evil to lead the First Order. Perhaps Ep. IX will save this movie. I hated the following:
1. Luke: Disney ruined the legacy of Luke and what Lucas set up. Luke deserved better. Luke was a grumpy old man who has trashed the Jedi order. Then he becomes a coward and does a force astral projection and dies of exhaustion. Wow what a waste. Why not let Luke go out with a more epic way (i.e, have Luke in the flesh and Rey be ambushed by the Knights of Ren). 2. Plot-holes: Rey is a "Mary-Sue" who can do everything with no training. Finn -- a sanitation worker -- can take on Captain Phasma who is a trained soldier. Bombs in space; Light speed ships as weapons; force ghosts (Yoda) using lightning (why not have all the force ghosts take on the First Order?) 3. Casino story line: Waste of time and went know where except to introduce Rian's new trilogy in the future. Self-serving. Disney had to go all political with animal cruelty. I'm on the side against animal cruelty but it just didn't fit and I felt like I was watching the Disney channel sitcom. 4. Bad/Forced Humor: I felt like I was watching Guardians of the Galaxy or Avengers. They work in those films, but not in Star Wars. Luke throwing his dad's light saber over his shoulder was a huge slap in the face to everyone who loves Star Wars. It was not funny. These criticism only scratch the surface how bad this movie is. I'm sad to see Disney trounce on the legacy of Star Wars like this. Again, I'm a true fan and not a robot writing this review. Go see this movie form your own opinion. But I hated this film and I feel like Disney has just trashed everything to start over with their own thing. I'm open-minded to go in new directions. That's cool, but this just seemed so much in my face. My only hope is that JJ Abrams can rescue this pile of trash. Give some background to Snoke. Have it so that Kylo lied about Rey's parents and that she is truly the daughter of a legacy character. Redeem Luke!!! Have him so he only teleported away-- not died-- near the end in TLJ. Let Luke in the flesh take on the First Order and then die in an epic way. Have Kylo full evil and not conflicted as he rules the First Order in a heavy handed way. Have Rey get training by Luke.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ESB, ROTJ and ROTS are my favourites in that order. But seriously, I would rather have Jar Jar in every single Star Wars movie than watch the Last Jedi again. Stop defending it. It's not about theories, or about Luke Skywalker dying or about Rey and Snoke being nobodies. It's just that the movie sucks. End of story. The plot is not well written and it hardly develops throughout the movie. They build up the hype in TFA for nothing! If you want your characters to be no one, don't make it look like they are related to somebody we know! Besides, half of the movie is about two characters, one of them we don't know, and what they do is completely pointless. Finn and the asian chick could have just sat at the corner of the screen waving, because they entirely made the movie boring, as NO ONE cares about them. The script is just ridiculous. We understand that they want to make a new saga, one I won't be part of (I consider that without Skywalkers there isn't more Star Wars, as Lucas said Star Wars was about the Skywalkers), but they completely ruined it with this movie. They insulted our favorite characters and made their new ones look like invencible gods, aka REY, that without any training she is capable of besting Luke Skywalker... WTF PEOPLE. This movie is **** bad written and completely insulting. Its becoming another Avengers: the plot is not interesting but it has good visual effects and we can sell lots of **** **** Disney, I hope you crumble down to the ground like the Empire did. And thank you Mark Hamill for always supporting the fandom, even if it has cost you your character's life in this new garbage movie. People can say what they want and try to lie to themselves, but this movie has no redemption at all. What they did to Princess Leia... left me speechless. But what they've done to Luke? **** insulting. I'm out of this saga, but at least I have the Original and god, even the PREQUELS are better than this BS.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Shallow, dumbed down, weird tone for a Star Wars movie, boring/nonsensical plot with Luke Skywalker, the greatest hero of one of my favorite universe's being relegated to a paranoid, possibly mentally ill, alien breast feeding mountain hermit. Speechless Disney - I am still in shock I think. All of the answers to interesting questions and cliffhangers from TFA were completely ignored in favor of introducing worse than JarJar - Rose and a plotline to talk about animal cruelty. What.... what... seriously? The fate of the galaxy is supposedly at stake here, but we need to take a random segway to watch people we don't care about ride donkeys and learn about why rich people are evil and animal cruelty is bad? It was so forced and cringy and out of place and a waste of screentime it felt like a saturday night live skit. The only reason this gets one star is because of the throne room fight scene, which was great. There were some other decent fight scenes, but they are forever ruined by the cringy humor and awful plot decisions i.e. fight with finn and phasma... ruined by cheesy deus ex machina finn saved by the elevator and bb8 piloting an ATST??!?! Wow, that was actually one of the worst things I have ever seen i.e. fight scene on salt planet ruined by cringy luke brushing dirt of his shoulder and rose rescuing finn who was trying to save the rebellion because she loves him after spending 5 hours with him?!? i.e. kylo ren fighting his way to the front of the rebel ship and blowing up the command center but then leia becomes superman?!?! Worst of all the entire plot was pointless. There was virtually no character development or interesting developments for the resistance except for the fact that we learned they are completely useless and now down to about 20 people that can fit into the millenium falcon. Possible the worst star wars of all time.… Expand

Cons: More plot holes than you couldPros: Space-battles, light-saber duels: Lots of nice eye-candy Mark Hamill. It is almost as if he had waited for decades for playing in this movie. Which makes me feel a bit sorry for him.

Cons: More plot holes than you could shake a space cruiser at, held together by ridiculous coincidences. One-dimensional characters who talk about but show no emotions and who, when discarded, leave the audience indifferent - other than established characters who are discarded for no discernible purpose. Characters whose behaviour seems to serve no rational goal. Entire plot lines that severed absolutely no purpose but to have the characters pontificate. Serious breaks with the sagas' premises to allow for developments that again leaves the audience puzzled. Scenes as absurd as a flying English nanny they made me wonder what Disney thinks about its audience.

All in all, Disney seems to go the same path with the Star Wars franchise as Sony went with Ghost Busters: Forget the hitherto loyal fan-base, clean the slate - and then play silly games with it.

A New Hope was the first movie I ever went to twice. I count observing my kids as they watched episodes IV to VI in wonder to my fond memories. After the prequels and The Force Awakens, Rogue One seemed to be a turn to the better. But now, I think Disney is on spot with its message of The Last Jedi: Leave the past behind you.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Erratic story telling, giant let downs and an unnecessary low speed space chase. It never felt like a Star Wars movie. The Casino scene was unnecessary, Luke Skywalker wasn't Luke Skywalker. The porgs were oversold and Chewbacca was a set piece. Everything that wasn't Luke's story felt like time filler to the already bloated running time. "Well, we need something for Finn to do... Hey, Casino Royale" Poe needs to be a rebel so let's not make him privy to our plan so he can mutany. It made no sense why he wouldn't be included in the plan. And what the hell, Rey and Kylo's scenes were forced, they had to figure a way for them to share screen time. Essentially, the previous movie became irrelevant and all it's set ups were ignored. If you're telling a 9 episode story, why disregard the previous 7 so you can have the last one start all over? In the over-all arc of the saga, this one is a strange outlier.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Here is my review and reasoning for my 1 star rating:

I seriously can't believe that the question leading to the ST was "Who is Luke Skywalker" and professional people and self professed Star Wars fans came up with this mess. They took the greatest hero in cinematic history and turned him into a complete failure that gets schooled in the Force by some random junkbaby. Rose says before we even meet Luke that heroes don’t run. Yet that is exactly what they had Luke do for years. Rey is also ruined for me as a character as of TLJ. Tell us she is junkbaby from the beginning. No need for secrecy. Her perfect mary sue-esque routine was slightly annoying in TFA, but I thought that she would be brought down in TLJ like Luke was in TESB or Anakin was in AotC, but instead they make her even more perfect with no failures and able to do everything. She is without a doubt what people feared she was - a MARY SUE. She will have ZERO failures in the ST while they completely destroyed the OT3. Clearly this was a direction from Disney and KK to kill GL's work. White slavers indeed.

I didn’t mind the new characters or the idea of Canto Bight. Some of the sequences there dragged out longer than needed. Mark was outstanding for his work with what he was given, particularly since we know he didn’t agree with it. The OP Force use seemed more like a video game or cartoon than Saga rules. Hux and the FO as comic relief made this seem like Space Balls II more than Star Wars VIII. Poe’s prank call drew groans. Not good for an opening sequence. The chase idea was poorly executed. We’ve never seen fuel being an issue before on one ship, let alone a whole fleet. Also, they could have jumped to different locations and split up. This chase idea works great in a WWII sub chase movie, but this is Star Wars and the FO could have just jumped a destroyer or two in front of the limping rebel ships and pinned them in. The crawl seemed to make it clear the FO instantaneously took control of the galaxy, yet it is said in the movie that it will take weeks to take control of the central/important systems. Milking the monster was not needed and got universal groans in the theater, as did Leia flying. People laughed at Leia. The SFX looked off at times. Ships, particularly X-Wings, don’t move like that in the Star Wars universe. Yoda looked ridiculous and people actually laughed at it. The lightsaber effects were off as well. Fan films have better SFX than these and LFL did well in Rogue One so there is no excuse. The Holdo maneuver was executed really well though. I thought it was a nice place for the sound to drop. The whole Poe-tiny seemed out of place. Luke’s flashback costume looked like a RotJ version in TFA/TLJ color scheme. It looked awesome and I hope they make that Sideshow figure. Speaking of the flashback, you have to be kidding me. From Luke lying about it to Ben’s version to how it actually played out to Ben still looking like he’s 30 years old, all of it was horrible. Snoke was a complete waste. So many threads dropped. They also could have used Lando in either Maz’s role or as the target at the casino. I get what they were doing with the stable kids telling Luke’s last stand, but continuing past that and using the stable boy as the end fell flat. If they would have cut from the kids retelling the story to the rebels meeting up with ships answering the call and assembling a new fleet, it would have shown Luke as a legend and that the spark worked. It would have really given hope. It would have also ended on a more Star Wars style ending. A huge complaint is that the movie breaks the established visual language established for the Saga films. Not a problem in anthology films, but it is jarring in the context of the Saga. It was the first Star Wars film that I have seen with people booing as it irised out.

I know that it doesn't matter, but I will never watch another Star Wars movie or series or buy any other non-Luke merchandise. My collecting that started when I was a kid around 1980 is now over. Congratulations BI/KK/JJ/LK/RJ, you killed my lifelong fandom/desire for new Star Wars content. We will never buy another Disney product, support Disney movies (except for maybe Captain America), or go to any parks again. I will never watch another movie produced, written, or directed by any of the above individuals.

I wish them the same level of success they afforded the OT3. For what they did to Lucas' vision, I simply hope that what goes around comes around.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Did we really wait two years to find out Rey's parents were a couple of drunks who sold her for drinking money? Lame. This film ruined Rey, making her some awkward, pointless character looking in on a family dispute she has no stake in. Rey was flat and was just used to give Kylo an arc, because Rian Johnson was in love with him. Finn was giving nothing to do, as well. All the mystery created by Abrams in TFA--gone. All the wonderful new characters introduced in TFA--disrespected. Yes, there was emotion between Kylo, Luke, and Leia, but Luke is dead and Fisher is sadly gone. No one cares about Rey vs. Kylo, now that Rey is a nothing character. This is not a legitimate Star Wars movie. It is an ANTI-Star Wars movie.… Expand

I honestly thought the opening scene was just a fancy advert for a phone company when Po was messing with the Empire pretending he had a bad connection. I waited in vain and then desprate hope that some flashy logo would appear and then the REAL movie would begin. This is a gut wrenching movie to watch. To witness that the people in charge have so little understanding about what makes this franchise great fills me with fear for the future. To feel that they have so little respect for the inteligence of the audience that they think re-hashing the old scenes and dialogue with a few cute fury characters is enough to warant calling this a new addition to the saga. This movie shamelessly rips off Empire and Return both in the script and visually. The other elements feel rushed and thrown together with boring and pointless character arcs and actions. By any normal movie metric this movie is weak. But the fact that it was so setup for a logical and interesting progression from the Force Awakens it seems like they went out of their way not to pursue any of the threads left by the last movie. The reaction of the public hopefully will be listened to by the studio. We can only hope that Rian Johnson does not direct any more star wars movies.… Expand

It should be pointed out that The Last Jedi seemed like a bloated, fragmented assortment of poorly connected scenes and little else. Furthermore, the ham-handed attempt at diversity and inclusion was so poorly executed and serves only to saddle TLJ as a movie that wanted to make a statement about social justice and not tell a good story. If Johnson’s vision was to kill the past then he has indeed succeeded. The deconstructed script effectively cut any ties to the episodes that came before and it was helped along by Disney’s filmmaking by committee, which appeared more interested in marketability and not in character and story development. If this were a relay race then Kathleen Kennedy, J. J. Abrams, Rian Johnson et. al. have dropped the baton.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pontos negativos:
- Protagonizaram o Luke Skywalker à moda de um "bêbado falido de Wal Street, complexado pela culpa". Yoda também sofreu com a culpa pelo fracasso, e também se exilou, porém ele era um MESTRE JEDI, e na FORÇA ele viveu e aprendeu. Eu esperava o mesmo com o Luke.
- A Ray entrega o sabre-de-luz para o Luke e ele o arremessa? Ridículo! Isso demonstra que o "LUKE" da "NOVA VERSÂO DISNEY" não têm valores JEDI.
- O Luke se naga a ensiná-la, e não a ensina nada!
- Esperávamos (Sim, pois falo por muitos amigos fãs no Brasil) que o Luke demonstrasse a Sabedoria que somente um eremita na FORÇA poderia possuir. Esperávamos que ele se assemelhasse ao Mestre Yoda, testando a Ray e logo após treinando-a nos caminhos da Força.
- A morte do Luke foi péssima! Ele poderia sim ter morrido em um último esforço, porém que o seu pai, Obi Wan e Yoda estivessem ali ao seu lado, para levá-lo, para nos dar o sentimento de que o seu papel findou e fora um final glorioso, finalizando assim, a SAGA SKYWALKER para iniciar a nova história "Disney".
- A Princesa Leia estava limitada. Amargurada e cinzenta. Sem qualquer participação especial.
- O Snoke comparar o Kylo Ren ao Vader? Isso foi uma piada?
- O Snoke morreu de uma forma ridícula em vista do poder que possuía (ou que aparentava possuir).
- Repetitismo chato! Fugas e mais fugas... Visões conectadas e mais visões. - Se a Leia tinha domínio da força o suficiente para protagonizar aquela cena, porquê que ela não conseguia sequer levitar pedras?
- Canhão Protótipo da Estrela da Morte? Outra piada da Disney.
- Um filme longo demais para mostrar apenas: fugas, deserções, visões e o péssimo Luke da Disney.
- Só não classifico como ZERO porquê se trata de STAR WARS.
- O Luke deveria ter sido uma combinação de Yoda e Obi Wan. Aquele que treina a nova geração, a Ray no caso, e que responde ao chamado da Rebelião, findando a sua existência em um ato heróico, glorioso e sábio.
- Sabe o que teria sido muito legal? Mostrar o Templo Jedi original como ele é, e o treinamento da Ray nos caminhos da Força dentro do Templo. O treinamento de um Jedi nunca foi mostrado, apenas partes mesquinhas.
- Enfim, sigam esse conselho: REFAÇAM O FILME ANTES QUE O MUNDO PERCA OUTRO ATOR MARAVILHOSO!… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Star Wars: The Last Rites. As a movie it's just not very good, as a Star Wars movie it's a travesty - the tone is so jarring and incompatible with all that proceeded it that I never once forgot that I was sitting in a movie theatre the entire time.

For me it's the worst of the series. I was actually bored for the first time watching a Star Wars movie. I'm giving 1 point for Luke's very brief interaction with R2 on the falcon which was one of the only points that made me feel anything.

BelkorDrayDec 22, 2017

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 1st part - movie problems for movie fans
2nd part - movie problems for movie/legends fans

Movie:
1. The very opening. We go from a Republic though with problems it has been established. The fringe group would be the First Order. We SKIP over the entire story of the downfall of the Republic to where we started off in 4/5/6.
2. Where did the First Order get the money to pay for stuff AFTER the catastrophe of losing their death star? I know it wasn’t a death star but come on… it was a death star. They did not have financial outreach like the Empire did when the actual first and second death stars were built.
3. No character development = no story
4. Additional pointless characters – the vice admiral to name one
5. **** on every dramatic moment with comedy
6. Copies story lines from 4/5/6
7. Take the first scene with Poe and replace it with Anakin Skywalker, Luke Skywalker, or even Hann Solo and you have the exact same scenes we say 2 – 6.
8. Leia’s powers were not established nor was her ability in the movie to move through space explained. You have to have read legends to know what is LIKELY what power she used.
9. Luke’s battle with Kylo was like the Obi Wan and Vader fight with it ending similarly. This may have been for dramatic effect but it was undercut as well and just lazy writing. A new way would have been more powerful.
10. They **** on the Jedi with disregard to all of their teachings.
11. Luke’s reasoning for giving up on Kylo and then everyone else makes no sense for his movie character.
12. Snoke was built up to be some super powerful being and then is just easily killed. You do realize they flex his ability in the force to show his strength and then undercut it by him not sensing Kylo’s betrayal right? Sidious was about to sense Vader’s changes in nearly all encounters when it happened. Sidious used a blade because of it being a crap on the Jedi but he himself was a force user primarily like Snoke supposedly was. The movie made Snoke so weak, and subsequently Kylo, that it is easy to argue that Sidious or Vader or maybe even Tyranus could have defeated Snoke with little effort. Legends:

1. The Death Star was actually IN CANON established with Tarkin and Thrawn of costing a LOT of money. It was established that Grand Admiral Tarkin, Grand Admiral Thrawn, and Lord/Darth Vader were all fairly against it. Tarkin did take over and come to the side with the Emperor on it. If I am remembering it all correctly. For sure Thrawn and Vader were not for it. Why? Because it weakened the overall Navy because it cost so much they had to deviate from building other vessels like Star Destroyers and Super Star Destroyers which could cover more of space. Then it cost a LOT to build the second Death Star. So I ask you, WHERE did the First Order get the finances to make their own when the Empire struggled to pay it and they had a near entire galaxy paying for it?!?!?!
2. The ability Leia used could be a force meditation which I found in Star Wars Specter of the Past and was used by Luke. It explains why she couldn’t open the door to get.
3. The little fat animals are similar to Jar Jar. I liked Jar Jar and everyone hated him. They love the little ****. This bothers me.
4. In the novels you get to learn what brought the downfall of the new Jedi, the New Republic, and the fall of many heroes. Why was that just hopped over?
5. Why did we get literally near scene for scene and/or plot for plot 4/5/6 and some from 1/2/3 when there are so many stories to tell? My username is a call to a character in one such novel. You could talk about Bane who was made canon which likely means the old Sith are canon which could have been talked about. What about Plagueis or his master Tenebrous? What about stories that made Maul the actual character he was like Maul Lockdown? What about the Old Sith Wars, Mandalorian Wars, or the Yuuzhan Vong wars? What about exploring the good in the Empire by its soldiers like in Twilight Company? So many ORIGINAL stories and yet we got a copy and paste update.
6. By weaponizing the hyperspace jumps etc it severely hurts or gets rid of the importance of some features of the Super Star Destroyers and the ENTIRE LINE of Interdictor – class Star Destroyer. Furthermore, why in the movie was an Interdictor – class Star Destroyer not used to simply trap the rebels so that they could only use their fuel on their ships and have no way of entering hyper space at all? This would have made what the Vice Admiral did not able to happen. (‘-’)/ if we are going to give them a Death Star then I cannot see why a much cheaper Star Destroyer would be out of the question in the movie logic.

I am sure there is more that I am missing but at the moment these are the key things I could think of and remember.… Expand

The latest movie is absolutely lacking the heart and soul of Star Wars. The plot is so convoluted and several events take place that should make you question numerous events not just in this movie but also in past movies too. Just massive plot holes. The Last Jedi completely tramples the lore of Star Wars. The mythos, the "facts," the importance of Star Wars and its past. The performances are well done, individual moments and scenes are amazing even, and overall the movie cinematically looks great. However, as a whole package, it does not work because several of the most important components of any good movie are missing. For Last Jedi, it is story, heart, impact to certain character's motivations. I am avoiding spoilers but nearly step by step, scene by scene, anyone could rip this movie apart. Literally, "THAT MAKES NO SENSE!" Consider Vice Admiral Holdo's impact to the movie for a moment, why wasn't this "trick" done over and over again in space combat? Why not against the Death Stars? Why was the trench run even needed then? There are other examples but attempting to avoid spoilers as previously stated.

I greatly fear for the entirety of the Star Wars Saga. At this point, I can definitely say I miss George Lucas.… Expand

If any of the producers/directors/writers areI have to say this movie was CRAP!!!
It was a shameless attempt to SHOVE the social and political issues of the day down the throat of viewers who went looking for an escape of both those things.
If any of the producers/directors/writers are reading these posts, then this I'm willing to bet is the MAIN reason why the viewers have scored this movie so low.
I NEVER take the word of those STUPID movie critics, I go see for myself especially when I darn well know that a lot of them get paid to PROMOTE movies not give a brave and honest opinion on them. Anyhow, I HATED THIS MOVIE from the very beginning when I noticed the social and political statement they were PUSHING from the time the movie started. Now I love to take about politics and social issues. I very much enjoy the a mentally stimulating conversation/discussion about issues of the day but that is why they've made documentaries which I also love to watch. When one goes to the movies, one is looking to be entertain and especially to escape the issues of the day NOT have them SHOVED down your throat.

I've read many reviews on here and had to write this one due to some of the hypocrisy I read form many men on here. The biggest one was them saying I didn't see gender or didn't see a problem with the OVERTLY and ridiculous exaggeration of gender roles in this movie. Every character who had some importance or level of respect was only a woman. Men were made to seem as not as smart, incompetent and unable to control their emotions a la Luke Skywalker.
This reminded me of people who when confronted with the subject of race first blurt out "I SEE NO COLOR" or " MY BEST FRIEND IS BLACK" such crap!!!
Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with women in positions of power or in leadership roles, if you got it you got it, I'm not into holding back talent BUT this movie and its characters were not about that. I know what I'm saying, I've experience these things as a middle age black man. I know there were arguments in the past about Hollywood not having enough people of color in lead roles or as super heroes as well as women. In my view there has been good and steady progress in both arenas. I have seen good and exciting lead roles and superhero roles played by both people or color (minorities/black) and women alike, that glass ceiling was broken a while ago and there has been steady improvements ever since.
With that said, there was NO REASON to do this and I am willing to bet that this is the main reason why this movie scored so low and I bet it's the lowest scoring Star Wars movie by far.

As far as the other comments about the story lines not making sense and the characters not being developed well I fully agree with. There were too many important characters getting eliminated without their stories, past and roles being developed at all. Snoke for one was killed off too quickly, Captain Phasma just made what amounts to be a cameo appearance, DJ the same could be said for that character, the so called master code breaker, etc.
Bottom line, is this was a poorly executed movie with nothing but a transparent social and political agenda of the day. The original Star Wars movies NEVER injected the political and social issues of the day in such a disgusting way.… Expand

I've watched the movie in the theatre, thought about watching it a second time, but I really did not like many things in this movie. So instead of giving Disney more of my money, I've came here to express my point of view.

The director ignored many aspects and plots from previous movies and novels of the franchise. Even from The Force Awakens.

I felt that many characters were thrown there just to be a mean to an end, even the big ones. Which I think it's not a big problem if you are making a movie in a new universe, or trying to push a new franchise/saga. But it can be a big problem on a well stabilished universe like this.

A lot of things that could have been or needed to be explained, are just ignored or like Rian Johnson himself later said "aren't important to the history", or "weren't important in the 70s movie".

They had an oportunity to make an amazing trilogy, where the old character passes the torch to the new hero and teaches her about the things that he did right and wrong, so she can become even stronger than him. And they could have done it in a way that feels respectful, nostalgic, coherent with the character and at the same time showing that he is not a perfect being.

But they didn't. And in my point of view, there are things in this movie that some Star Wars fans may find wrong, incoherent and in some cases even downright insulting.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am still stunned at how jaw droppingly awful The Last Jedi is. It truly is one of the worst movies I've ever seen! No character development, nonsensical plot, poor continuity (e.g. the Resistance stated that being tracked through hyperspace was impossible, yet the Millenium Falcon was tracked through hyperspace in Ep.IV - Leia even states "They're tracking us"), plagiarisation of the previous films, etc, etc, etc. I can't believe how this pile of sh*te ever managed to make it to the screen. No doubt that Disney will keep the SW gravy train a-rolling, but I for one won't be boarding again!… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you can classify yourself being between a hardcore Star Wars fan and just somebody looking for a couple of hours of entertainment with a free cinema ticket, you should steer clear of this movie. I will not bore you with painful details that have ruined my expectations. PLOT

The script is in a total disarray. You will see things that make 0 sense and you will struggle to find connecting links between events because of too many plot holes. Bombs "dropping" on space, First Order ships have no energy shields (really...?), Leia getting blown up -survives, drags off to outer space -freezes, comes back to life and flies back in THROUGH the energy shield? You will witness characters getting killed such funny and stupid deaths to a point that you'll almost be hearing the Benny Hill soundtrack (Snoke, Phasma?). Also, the majority of one-liners and humorous moments are so cringe-worthy, I am amazed that the people who edited this actually approved it.

VISUALS AND SOUND

Effects are probably the only redeeming thing of the movie but also probably the least important. It has a few very well directed scenes and iconic photography, especially with Luke facing the First Order walkers on the salty-surfaced planet. The beloved Star Wars music is sometimes used a bit out of place though.

SCRIPT - TIME AND PACING

This movie is long. And not in an enjoyable way; the first hour, I thought even if I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have missed a whole lot. Towards the end, I was begging for the movie to wrap stuff up and end because I'd gotten tired of the endless cringe-worthy moments which seem to be increasing in frequency. The pacing of the movie is absolutely horrendous; some storylines take a few hours, others weeks. Some are unclear how much they take(?). This creates a lot of "WTF" moments in the audiences' minds as to "how did this happen?". Ray seems like she's been training with Luke for weeks but the events with the Resistance look like they last hours/a few days.

SCRIPT - "INNOVATIONS" AND CHARACTERS

In Force Awakens, we had a lot of new characters introduced, but The Last Jedi, viciously floors literally all of them and the ones that already were there. It introduces more characters who are completely and utterly useless, uninteresting and very flat (I'm looking at you Rose!). Ray's backstory seems destroyed, she's basically a completely uninteresting daughter of scum who sold her off for money. Snoke, one of the most intriguing villains we'll never know what did he do or where did he come from; at least not in a meaningful way. OVERALL
This is a very bad movie. Although the visuals and sound effects are stunning, the movie is a soulless husk. Characters are uninteresting and even look bored, plotlines diverge to paths unknown for too long for no reason, and then drag on some more. Plot holes ruin the continuity of the movie and make the audience wonder "so what happened now?". Sense of humour is appalling and completely out of place.… Expand

SPOILER ALERT! If Johnson was chosen to continue his character arcs from The Last Jedi, here are my expectations for his Episode 9 (let’s just see what JJ Abrams does?):

1. Low on food and supplies, the 9 remaining Rebels flee to Ahch-To toSPOILER ALERT! If Johnson was chosen to continue his character arcs from The Last Jedi, here are my expectations for his Episode 9 (let’s just see what JJ Abrams does?):

1. Low on food and supplies, the 9 remaining Rebels flee to Ahch-To to call all remaining resistance supporters to this new base, while milking sea cows and BBQing Porgs for nourishment.
2. Luke, who DIDN'T really disappear into the Force (his mechanical hand didn’t drop onto the meditation stone, did it!?), but rather created a Force Teleport, returns to Tatooine to live in Kenobi's old home. Luke disconnects from the Force for the last time and begins scaring Tusken Raiders away from lost droids who venture off into the desert.
3. Princess Leia, stricken with grief from the loss of Han and now her brother (or so she thinks), dies from a broken heart while traveling to Ach-To!!! However, we only get to read about this in the title crawl for Episode 9! :’(
4. Kylo Ren, decides he can't live without Rey (Rey-LO!!!) since his Force Touch experience with her, throws Admiral Hux against a wall (again, again, again, again…) and deserts the First Order to search for Rey.
5. Admiral Hux, whose face has been badly scared and injured from Kylo's repeated attacks, creates a mask to hide his face, and takes over as the new Supreme Leader. His first major decision is to change the name from the First Order to the Best Order.
6. Finn, after trying to sacrifice his life to save the Resistance and finally bringing “meaning” to his life, struggles from depression which makes him flee the Rebels via a “secret” escape pod on the Millennium Falcon (even Han and Chewy didn't know existed) and returns to the First Order, only to complete his stormtrooper training and become the new Captain Phasma.
7. Rose, finally fixes the hyperdrive on the Falcon after all these years!
8. Chewbecca, rotisseries all the Porgs inside the Millennium Falcon and falls in love with Rose, who fixed the hyperdrive! They move to Canto Bight and adopt Force sensitive children.
9. Rey, returns to Jakku to read the mind of Unkar Platt, and begins her journey in search for her drunk parents’ grave (who didn’t die but are casino bartenders on Canto Bight).
10. Poe Dameron keeps blowing things up!
11. Admiral Ackbar, who doesn’t breathe oxygen, realizes he TOO is Force sensitive, contacts Princess Leia (before she dies) to come and pick him up on their way to Ach-To.
12. The young force sensitive boy on Canto Bight, leads a rebellion with more force sensitive kids against their captors to fight for better hourly wages while working with the Fathiers! They also fight for better treatment for the Fathiers, so these animals don’t have to run BACK-To-BACK races after returning from long planet voyages.
13. Kenny Phasma, I mean Captain Phasma is DEAD for GOOD, so we don’t have to see any more lame fights!
14. Supreme Leader Snoke, isn’t really dead! He was just using a really good puppet and will return for Episode 9 to reclaim his Empire from Kylo!!!!
15. DJ, after becoming a multi-millionaire from turning Finn and Rose over to the First Order, returns to Canto Bight to begin building a better, and I mean a BETTER, and BIGGEST, and I mean really BIG, new Death Star to bring peace and happiness to the Galaxy!… Expand

Regardless of any legitimate criticism of Lucas, his contributions were the DNA of what made Star Wars great fun. What were those things: structure is serial comic book/science fantasy, had lots of detail around military/robotic/speeder/weapons hardware to geek out with, had heroes and villains that were fun interesting characters, alluded to deep history of the Star Wars universe with the Jedi that kept peace for a thousand generations which gave a mystical feel to the Star Wars lore. Last Jedi destroyed almost all of that. It now seems like modern pseudo-intellectual secular humanist anti-dogma dogma with some shallow preachy social commentary tacked on.… Expand

I feel so bad for today's kids. I grew up on the original Star Wars trilogy, which clearly laid out how love, calm, and self sacrifice = the Light side of the Force, and hatred, anger, selfishness = the Dark Side. It was clear cut, and helped guide my moral compass growing up almost as much as anything. Luke emobodied these ideals and struggled with the darkness and the light through his 3 movie arc before solidifying himself as the greatest hero in the history of movie-dom by saving his father and the galaxy.

And now we have TLJ, where Disney throws everything we hold dear out the window. Luke is destroyed and treated lower than dirt. The Force and how it works is destroyed. The rebellion is destroyed. Everything the rebellion worked for in the original trilogy is destroyed. The beloved Admiral Ackbar is unceremoniously flushed in favor of a new purple haired character nobody cares about or will remember.

And the main character Rey, who I am supposed to be rooting for, is essentially a Sith in the employ of the Resistance with her rampant use of untamed dark side power. Don't worry though, the porgs and horse-dogs are saved! yay! Long live Supreme Leader Ren and the victorious First Order!

This film leaves people with ZERO anticipation for episode 9. Are 30 people (the entirety of the Resistance now fits in the Falcon) going to defeat a galactic Empire of billions? Who will lead the Resistance since we know Leia is dead IRL? Will they pull some other random pink haired lady from the back or do we need to wait 10 years for broom boy? Will Kylo finally turn good after slaughtering the entire galaxy or will Rey defeat him? Who cares. I'm out. See you later Disney. I'm going to go hug my pre-special edition VCR tapes of the original trilogy and cry.… Expand

THE LEAST JEDI. What an unbelievable sham of a movie camouflaged by gorgeous art direction. I'll give this movie a single start for just existing and the extra one only for how beautifully rendered it is. And that's about all that's rightTHE LEAST JEDI. What an unbelievable sham of a movie camouflaged by gorgeous art direction. I'll give this movie a single start for just existing and the extra one only for how beautifully rendered it is. And that's about all that's right with this one. The Force Awakens rode on the hate for the prequels and an overwhelming sense of nostalgia and got by just rehashing the best parts of the erstwhile first 3 movies. What exactly is Rian Johnson's explanation or motivation to turn a decades-old mythology into his personal playground and how pray did Disney go ahead with this? Characters mouth incredulous dialogue (some of it captioning action on the screen), others throw hissy fits, some others decide to sacrifice themselves at the altar of temporary relief to their armies only to be thwarted by others with secret crushes on them. Backstories and plots drawn up in Force Awakens are decimated into smithereens like Alderaan. Mark Hamill, bless his hamming soul, is a classic 80s actor - unsubtle, upstages co-performers and clearly guns for longer screen time by slowing down dialogue delivery and throwing in a dozen or so pauses, glares and grimaces. His directors in the original trilogy probably recognised this and so gave him tight, sharp scenes to work with. Rian Johnson succumbs to the fanboy-as-director syndrome and lets Mark do his thing hoping that nostalgia will lull us all into not expecting a performance worthy of a 2017 film. Oscar Isaacs makes up for poor writing by being the film's only hormonal teenager stuck in an adult's body. Daisy Ridley starts and ends the film confused. Adam Driver should consider taking Kylo Ren off caffeine. Carrie Fisher reveals a superpower at the most inopportune moment. At which point, I thought Guardians of The Galaxy might make an appearance. Because by then, we'd already been subjected to some dialogue clearly inflicted by JossWheddonitis. If you're going to be honest then call this Star Wars Rebooted or something so true followers like me can make a choice and stay way. This is just dishonest, play-to-the-gallery filmmaking backed by a machinery that knows a billion bucks is out there to be made But here's the truth. Episode 9 is going to struggle at the box office, now that the trust and love for this saga has all but been put to waste.… Expand

Easiest way to make sense of them and figure out how it really rates as a movie to to simply pay attention to the way that postive reviews are written. You will see a LOT of "Didn't make sense but LOVED it" and "There were tons of odd moments that made me cringe but GREAT film". Ask yourself why even all the positive reviews of 8,9 and even 10 tell you how awkward it was and how they are 'taking a new direction' with the series in this 'turning point' film.

Those are the kindest possible terms for a movie that took a massive steaming dump on all the things we loved about Star Wars prior to this. Heroes? All of the things you thought you knew about the Lore and Characters will be completely washed away by the end of the film. Is Luke a brave hero who risked his life to save his father or a broken, selfish and cowardly vagrant? if you believe the former prepare to be disappointed and confused.

To keep this spoiler free I will not be listing all of the times this film make me confused,angry and hurt. Read the reviews yourself and you'll see the truth.… Expand

If anything, the quality of the script gives hope to potential screenwriters that their worst ideas could be optioned by Disney due to their zero quality control process.

It is a sad realisation that the Star Wars universe is probably deadIf anything, the quality of the script gives hope to potential screenwriters that their worst ideas could be optioned by Disney due to their zero quality control process.

It is a sad realisation that the Star Wars universe is probably dead now, but alas, will all these negative feelings be forgotten when Disney brings out the next Star Wars story?

Disney does not care how you feel about it, because they know it will make money regardless. They know (as i've read in some fans negative reviews) that people will go and $ee it again "Just to be sure it was as bad as I thought the first time". They know there are enough dedicated individuals who will find substance in a film where there really is none. They know people will still go and pay to see it, even you reading this now who is baffled at how The Last Jedi could have been made with such a garbage script.

I am truly amazed how fans justify the films shortcomings. I am in awe really and find their interpretations fascinating, though I'm mostly disappointed and sad they they have to stretch their opinions to make sense of this poorly written script. I'm disappointed because it shows that people don't care much about story or logic and can easily fool themselves in to thinking things that don't make sense, do. And that is really what it is. Disney has tapped in to that inherent human flaw of hoping for the best, and giving the benefit of the doubt for beloved stories in order to make money. That, if anything, is what should be admired about this whole sloppy mess. They've adopted the Star Wars religion, and be sure they know what they've got here, and will keep on producing awful stories in this genre because people will pay money and go see it regardless.

As far as I'm concerned, my interest in the Star Wars universe is done and dead. I won't be fooled in to paying to see any more Disney Star Wars, other negative reviewers here should pledge the same. There are better things out there and we still have the original (unedited or even the adywan edit) trilogy in our home collection which they can't make any money from. May the original trilogy Force be with us. 1 star for the special effects.… Expand

It took me a day to process, weighing the facts, trying to make sense of this experience.

At this point I don't understand the critics, it's all very fishy, to say the least. Anyways, it's so bad I cannot imagine how on earth they were not aware it would not receive this kind of review from the public. Even Mark Hamil thought so. So what is the point, is Disney that retarded? Are we? And what is next? Can we please have JJ Abram back or Christopher Nolan.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spoilers. It was absolute garbage.

1. Leia in space was jarring.
2. Many times there was emotional tension, and it would immediately cut to something else.
3. How are Finn and Rose going to just escape the chase, do stuff, then make it back without the empire harassing them?
4. The crystal fox was unique and fantastic, but only cheapened with more of them just walking around amongst humans. A single crystal fox acting like the white rabbit alice in wonderland motif would have been sufficient. Having dozens of them was in poor taste.
5. Rey is a mary sue. She got less training that Luke Skywalker, who is also a mary sue.
6. The jedi fight scene looked contrived. It panned forward as the red knights were twirling like ballerinas in a tarantino film. How were the red guards supposed to even see through their visors?
7. Why was there a romantic interest from Rose over Finn only so Finn could throw his arms around Rey again?
8. Why did Rose decide to taze someone when the rebels are a voluntary force?
CGI-but-also-muppet Yoda was just a bad mix. His characterization was nauseating.
9. The coastal alien milking scene was something like it was straight out of Rick and Morty, not Star Wars.
10. The rebels had nothing to celebrate at the end. The pilot character had people kamikaze at the beginning and they were reduced to like 20 people.
11. The beginning scene with the bombs being dropped... how can you drop bombes in space? The explosion of bombs in space isn't going to be effective in the vacuum of space.
12. The thief that helped Finn and Rose mentions weapons sales to both sides, and then it's never brought up again. That was the single most important thing that Rose and Finn found out and they didn't bother to tell the other Rebels when they got back.

It was just a bad movie.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie is a dumpster fire of a bad movie. Faulty logic, poorly handled characters, plot holes that are too many to count, no synergy with any of the characters (except Rey and Kylo), and lazy terrible writing. Not to mention shoving down our throats political messages galore.

Let's start with the start of the movie. The beginning space battle is a case study on how NOT to portray a space battle. If you want to see how it is really done right, go see Rogue One. That ending space battle was fantastic. Not only was it visually exciting, but it was fairly accurate on how air battles are run. The notion that you would "drop" bombs...IN SPACE is patently ridiculous. How stupid do you expect the audience to be??? There are viewers who are above the age of 2. And let's take for granted that there is some type of tech that allows objects to counter act the void of space and produce some type of gravity/magnetic "bubble", it STILL makes ZERO strategic sense! Poe had cleared the dreadnought of surface cannons (which I find AMAZING for a single X-wing fighter), why take the chance of continuing to put your people and bombers into harms way??? You are telling me you can affix that payload onto missiles that can be launched from a safer distance away? That whole scene is just stupid all all around.

Secondly, who in their right mind believes that they handled Luke Skywalker in the proper way??? Luke Skywalker, a hopeful and optimistic man, was able to see a sliver of light in a Darth Vader (his father Anikan Skywalker) who for decades has committed genocide and atrocities. And he believed that he was worthy of being redeemed and saved!!! But for an instant saw some darkness in his own nephew, his SISTER'S and BEST FRIEND'S son, and thought he deserved to be struck down...MURDERED, at the swing of a lightsaber. That is the dumbest bit of writing for that character and clearly demonstrates how little Rian Johnson and Disney understand how to handle such an iconic character.

Third, that space chase was long, boring, illogical, and the story arch went NO WHERE. OK, let's give them that they have the tech to track them through hyperspace. Fine. The chase at sub-light speed is on. You can't send a second contingent of ships or fleet to hyperspace in from of their trajectory to form a pincer movement??? Again, VERY lazy writing to try to force a plot that sucked to begin with. Flying Leia?!? No, JUST NO. And where she came into the ship on, there aren't any air locks? Everything else about that scene sucked, I guess why not. The ONLY thing that worked was the scene where Kylo hesitates to fire on his mother but then the other tie fighters in his squadron does so in his stead. This scene clearly cements the seeds of hesitation in him (It had been planted in him long before). To just have Leia die at this moment would have at least furthered Kylo's story arch. But no, we get Harry Potter Princess Leia. Vice Admiral Holdo. WHY WAS SHE IN THIS MOVIE?!? Just to have another female heroine? And her character STUNK!!! Not telling Poe what her plan was is just dumb. This of course forces Poe to conspire with Finn and Rose in what would be the crappiest amount of filler that amounted to NOTHING FOR THE OVERALL STORY in the Star Wars Universe. "Was it worth it" Lord, epic stupidity strikes again. You go through all of that to save alien space race horses, but I guess it's OK to let those slaves remain slaves. Look I am not for abusing animals, but did we have to be lectured on this in a Star Wars movie????? And the answer is, NOOOO it wasn't worth it!!! Your mission was to find a code breaker to get you onto the First Order ship to deactivate or destroy that tracker so that you could save the Resistance! It was to help make Rose's sister's sacrifice meaningful and to help save Rey if she came back! That whole Canto Bight story arch was a total disaster.

Forth, if Luke Skywalker really does teach young padawans the ways of the Force like he did with Rey, it's no wonder Kylo said, "Screw this, I'm out of here to find a real teacher!" and destroyed Luke's Jedi academy! "Just reach out with your emotions." Oh man. Brutal. The writing totally stunk! It took Luke weeks, perhaps months on Dagobah with Yoda, physically training, mentally training, spiritually training to become a Jedi. Who in their right mind believes that even with talent, that without hard dedication, perseverance and training that you can ever realize becoming ANYTHING much less a Jedi????? That notion simply spits on everything we know to be true. Rey has no character growth. She's instantly great at everything! What a boring waste of a character. And YES!!! She shouldn't have been NOBODY, but the daughter of LUKE!

Fifth, Killing Snoke like you did. WTF! You build up this character like you did in TFA and give us ZERO??? HE was the new Darth Vader! He had gravitas. He struck fear in people and made people believe was a real threat. Not Kylo.

It Stunk!!!!… Expand

I’m not going to debate the lore or the direction the story is progressing in these new films, I personally don’t like it because for me Star Wars was something else and I think Disney could have told a new original story for the new generations without the need to destroy the heroes of the old movies and their accomplishments, but , I repeat, this is only my personal opinion. ‘The Last Jedi’ was very good visually but story wise it was ridiculous, rushed, full of plot holes and inconsistecies and I’m not saying that in refer to the original trilogy, but to episode VII and even with itself. The characters choices and many scenes are totally random and don’t make any sense. As if this couldn’t be enough the movie is full of cheap forced “funny” moments and evident political topics that don’t belong in a Star Wars movie at all. We had I think 6 or 7 kids sitting in the row in front of us but I never heard anyone laughing once. I’m completely puzzled about the great reviews this movie is getting. Are good visuals, special effects and cute birds really enough to make a bad movie a great movie?… Expand

Disney has clearly strong armed or threatened the critics into writing positive review for their cash cow. This is not merely a terrible Star Wars movie, it is a terrible movie period.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the worst movies I have ever seen in a movie theater. I saw the first Star Wars during its first week. But I am willing to accept a new vision. This was not a new vision. The critics no longer care about nonsensical plotting, a complete lack of character development, any logical consistency, gross violations of the laws of physics or believable dialogue. I do care about these! The entire movie is a jumbled mess. It seems to have been written by a committee of people that have never seen a Star Wars movie or taken a science class or a writing class. They did the impossible by making space battles tedious and slow-moving. They drop bombs in space--you know the place where there is no up or down. People die right and left but no one seems to care. Instead, they run off on pointless side quests with funny-looking horses and bad rich people at a casino??? And Luke milks an alien....
Incredibly bad.… Expand

There are way too many plot inconsistencies and ham-fisted attempts at social commentary in this film for it to actually be entertaining. I found myself so distracted by the forced representation of current political issues that it completely failed to teleport me to a "long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...."

For me, the absolute deal-breaker comes when ghost Yoda burns the ancient Jedi texts, citing that they're not page-turners and that Rey has all of the knowledge that she needs without them. If we remove the thin veil from this metaphor and apply it to our own world, you'll see that Master Yoda is really burning the Holy Bible and claiming that it is not necessary. I can't be a fan of this franchise any longer.… Expand

Movie-BuffDec 29, 2017

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The opening crawl decides that, contrary to the previous film, the resistance has actually LOST and now the First Order has completely taken over the galaxy. How the force did that happen? It seems every one of these films starts with “about everything that happened before? Yeah, we’ve nuking that.” This is then followed by a ridiculous scene involving yo mama jokes and the resistance losing all of its bombers because they apparently can’t move more than 2 inches per minute.
The first order destroys one of the resistance flagships, and Leia is flung out into space and dies…BUT WAIT! She now has mad Force skills and can not only survive in space, she can FLY LIKE SUPERMAN through it. I mean what the serious **** She falls into a coma after this, and the resistance is ruled by Kathleen Kennedy’s Real Grannies of Outer Space, who don’t take no lip, new ideas, or sensible talk from these young boy whippersnappers who just need to get off my bridge! Pretty much 80% of the resistance and every important person who isn’t Poe is now female.
Finn wakes up from a coma, and goes into Jar Jar Binks mode. Then meets Poe and decides he’s gotta go tip his fedora at Rey because reasons. So he sneaks off the ship but before he gets there he gets one-upped by Disney’s Asian Market 03, who suddenly decides that this is a quest she wants to be on. They go on said quest, which drags the entire film to a halt (because it was apparently not slow enough with the resistance literally just drifting in space) and makes some of the most outrageous claims about rich people ever put to film. Seriously, this is about a half hour of the film and adds nothing to the plot and changes nothing.
Back on the ship, Poe leads a mutiny against Kathleen’s holodeck projections and it feels pretty good to see them go down. But then Leia wakes up and tells the youngin’ to pipe down cause they DO have a plan that they told no one for no reason. But it’s a **** idea, like everything KK does.
Rey is off trying to get Luke to come back and be a Jedi. But Luke is sick of that nonsense and instead goes and milks a giant grey creature with huge **** and then drinks the milk right fresh. A horde of unspeakably annoying bird-groundhogs convince Chewbacca to become vegan. Rey manages to get Luke to tell her to “reach out and feel the Force” in what in a scene that is not terrible. But that’s the end of her training. She shows off how awesome she is with a lightsaber (which she never got trained in) and later kicks Luke’s ass in a duel because this movie hates your intelligence. After a while Rey gets bored of Luke not agreeing with her every whim and decides to leave the planet. Then ghost Yoda shows up as a nearly immobile puppet with worse ghost effects than in ROTJ, and blows up a tree containing the last of the Jedi archives (because this is totally something Force ghosts can do) while telling Luke that Rey doesn’t need to learn anything. Because obviously she’s perfect. Hold on a damn second! Did they just have Yoda say lines that Palpatine said to Anakin? WTF?
During the time that Rey is with Luke, she starts communicating telepathically with Kylo Ren. These conversations are the best part of the film and actually make Kylo a less hateable character. You find out the Luke tried to murder Kylo (because the filmmakers hate Luke apparently) and that’s why he's all genocidal. But Rey has seen the OT and decides that Kylo can be turned back to the light, so she goes to see him. Kylo takes her to Snoke, and then Rey persuades Kylo to kill Snoke. Ending any chance of charactibility or discovery of who the **** Snoke is. Then a bunch of guys in awfulplastic outfits (makes me miss the CGI clones) attack Rey and Kylo and of course Rey is the better fighter and has to save Kylo. But after that Kylo decides he doesn’t want to go back to the light side so Rey leaves the ship and goes to join the rest of the resistance.
The cunning plan of the Granny Gang is to go to a planet right next to the First Order fleet and hope they don’t get destroyed. This plan goes about as well as you’d expect and most of the resistance characters are killed. Then the FO lands their new 2nd-Film-in-the-Series AT-ATs and decides to blast open the resistance hideout. Finn decides to do something useful for once and attempts to suicide himself into the FO cannon but Asian Demographic 03 stops him for no goddamn reason and the FO blows open the door.
Suddenly Luke shows up and challenges Kylo to a duel but PLOT TWIST he’s not really there! He’s just projecting himself across the galaxy because that’s TOTALLY something that is possible now. Kylo throws another tantrum, MaRey-Sue uses more advance Force powers she has no training for, Luke just dies because **** it, and the last tiny group of resistance gets away – but not before announcing they are called Rebels now.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One Star....Half for the score and sound, it was amazing. The other half goes to the visuals, again it was amazing to watch.
That's where I stopped liking it. Not a fan of some of the forced humour. The Slow speed chase? Leia Poppins was very creepy to watch. Luke Skywalker deserves better than this, did the writers even watch the original films. I get that the old characters need to make way for the new ones, I just wish they didn't make them look like fools while doing it.
I'm not sure how JJ is going to finish the saga...most of the plot points he set up are dead now.
Save your money, watch it on Netflix.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all, I'm not a bot, I'm not alt-right and I'm not here to troll. I just want to give you my story. We were about 15 people watching The Last Jedi, ranging from guys in their early 40ies having grown-up with Star Wars to 20-somethings with basically no idea whats the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek. None of us would qualify as a hardcore fan-boy and nobody had some kind of fan fiction in his mind. But its fair to say, that everybody having seen TFA was expecting answers.

After the movie we compared our thoughts and rated the movie. The best vote came from someone in her twenties, she thought the movies was ok-ish, but she wouldn't watch it again or recommend it to friends. This could translate to something like 4 stars, maybe 5, if you feel generous. Worst reaction was along the lines of "what a pile of garbage", so all other ratings were below that, maybe in the range of 1-3 stars. Drilling further down, everybody felt insulted by the same things, independent of "Star Wars experience". A nice quote from that evening was "how stupid does Disney believe me to be?". So all of us were offended by immense amount of plotholes, absurd storytelling, meaningless story arcs and plain silly behaviour of basically anybody in the movie. We couldn't identify a single character showing something like common sense, or signs of intelligence, or basic military training.

None of us felt insulted by the choices made by Rian Johnson, all of us were good with the direction of the story, with the single exception of Luke trying to murder his nephew in his sleep. However, none of us felt that the story was new, or original, or unexpected. Basically its an amalgamation of The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and Battlestar Galactica, especially the episode 33. We had this "been there done that" feeling quite a lot.

Finally, most of us were annoyed by the forced humor, calling it misplaced. Star Wars was always kind of funny, but a lot of the jokes simply felt plain wrong and out of character. Maybe on a side-note: 2 guys swore to never drink milk again. On a personal note: That was the single-most disgusting scene I have seen last year.

So whats the verdict? From my point of view The Last Jedi is maybe the worst movie of the year. Interestingly it is not failing because of whats happening (story, characters, choices...) is failing because of how (no logic, plotholes, retconning lore...) it happens. Just a few examples: - What is the logic behind trying to sneak of a cruiser in smaller freighters, when you are within viewing distance???
- How is it possible, that a fleet of Star Destroyers with 1.500 turbo laser cannons each can't overload the shields of an old cruiser???
- Why don't send 2 ships ahead at lightspeed creating an effective trap???
- Why not simply launch all TIEs in the first place? The first order fleet should have at least 1.000...
- How can DJ betray a plan, Finn and Rose don't know and haven't talked about??? Was he the only guy looking out of the window???
- Why do several attack walkers with the order to kill everybody from the resistance not shoot Finn and Rose???
- How is possible to run severals miles faster than giant attack walkers while carrying someone and arriving just in time to be evacuted with everybody else???
- Why do you risk the single most important mission for the survival of the resistance with wrong parking???
- Why is Snoke loosing at the same time his common sense, his peripheral vision, his hearing and his feeling of the force???
- How can someone with no training overcome half a dozen highly trained personal guards meant as a last defense???
- If there is blaster-proof armor, why not issue it to all stormtroopers???
- How do you survive a direct hit by 2 torpedos, the vacuum of space while already being frozen over and how do you open a door without everybody being sucked into space???… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly, aside from the beautiful 'Kamikaze' scene, this film was only improved by Chewbacca's developing relationship with a bunch of puffins. This film is completely barmy. It's main theme is failure. They take a giant dump on everything that was canon beforehand and make the most appalling effort at reuniting the space twins after thirty years apart (spoiler: they talk about hair). This is meant to be Star Wars! Bad ass Sith Lords blowing up planets and force choking people! Instead we get realistic milking and a 'Train to be a Jedi' Course that might as well have been advertised on Wowcher. For me, the original Trilogy and Rogue One are the only films that have that genuine star wars feel. The rest is just awful. This film was......just......awful.… Expand
