The amount of potent disgust I feel towards this film and its creators is beyond words.

I'm not going to waste (too much) time rehashing what 62,984,825 true fans have already iterated across Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, etc. but I do want to mention that I personally found this film to be an overt assault on: STAR WARS fans, Men, Family, Tradition, Religion, The aged, Capitalism, My eyes/ears, My intelligence, and on George Lucas/Ben Burtt/Mark Hamill, etc.

Not only is this post-postmodern pile of garbage offensive in its caustic/nihilistic sensibilities, it is also devoid of the high-quality STAR WARS craftsmanship we've come to know and love. THE LAST JEDI is a poorly put-together film. Strictly speaking, on the technical side of things, it's crappy. Perhaps we all could have tolerated the aforementioned hyper-political misandrous hate-fest, if the film had exhibited just a lick of cinematic prowess -- but alas!

I'm genuinely struggling to write one good thing about THE LAST JEDI... oh, John Williams!

John Williams' score was solid, and it stands on it's own, thank God. That's why I gave this film 1/10, instead of 0/10. Williams is the man, too bad he got pimped out to this drivel. I found the sound design to be coarse and jarring - where the heck is Ben Burtt? Are you aware that even he doesn't know why he was axed? No Ben Burtt = Red flag #47. The story was nothing, the dialog and humor atrocious, no character development. Rian Johnson destroyed all of Abrams' hard-earned potential and mystery, in one overlong bloated hyper-messy mash. Shameful. Really! I found the "special effects" totally ho-hum. Been there, done that. The explosions were all cut-and-paste pixelation nightmares. This was way worse than Michael Bay's latest Transformers film, and I couldn't stand that one -- at least Bay's special effects are special. Plot holes, ridiculous physics, canonic inconsistencies (to the absurd) -- this film's got it all.

STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI. Gross + hollow; everything about it. Hated it. Could not have been more disappointed...

STAR WARS is supposed to be FUN. Thank you Rian Johnson (and whomever else pulled this crap lever) for infusing politics into "our beloved STAR WARS." In this polarized political climate we find ourselves in today, you could (and should) have taken the high road, and been the ONE thing that brought everyone together. "Everyone loves STAR WARS!" That used to be a thing people would say, it was bi-partisan/universal. Not anymore. You ruined it, and multiplied this present darkness exponentially. Very divisive move, Disney. You sold out to your crap politics, and alienated AT LEAST half of the STAR WARS fan-base.

I didn't make this political. You did. So I'll go there, just real quick... The caustic ideologies present in THE LAST JEDI are likely the same ideologies which were major contributing factors to Trump's 2016 victory. This ram-it-down-your-throat, take-no-prisoners, no compromise, no apologies approach is only going to continue to empower the growing backlash against the ideologies of the left (socialism, rabid/hateful feminism, moral relativism; just to name a few of the bigger/uglier ones). I believe there is a strong correlation between Trump supporters and THE LAST JEDI haters. Not a perfect correlation, by any means, but I think there's a trend there, for sure. This continued "double down on your failures" approach, from the left, will probably lead to a second term for Trump. Yes, THE LAST JEDI may very well help Trump win a second term. That's how bad THE LAST JEDI is. LOL. Just kidding. (I'm trying to be partisan here!) My heart goes out to all the others like me who were actually devastated by this release. I was pleased to see I wasn't alone. I'd never been let down like this before (film-wise). Thank God it's only a movie (and not canon, in my world). Timothy Zahn forever. May the (pre-Disney) Force be with you. (i'm not-a-bot) P.S. This would be a pretty awesome bot entry. Let me know if you know of any bots who could pull this off -- I'd love an introduction. LOL. Peace.

The only way this movie can be redeemed is by JJ starting episode IX is with the realization that everything that happens from the moment Leia is sucked into space is a dream before she dies, and then reboots XII into IX from that moment on.The only way this movie can be redeemed is by JJ starting episode IX is with the realization that everything that happens from the moment Leia is sucked into space is a dream before she dies, and then reboots XII into IX from that moment on.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Treason to Star Wars by the real Empire, AKA Disney. The prequels became master pieces after this "film". Get ready to see some weird guy called Luke Skywalker, you thought you knew him? Noooope, Mr.Johnson and Ms Kennedy turned him into a bizarre creepy guy who will ALWAYS do the oposite Luke would do.(Can you imagine Aragorn throwing his ancestor's sword comically or refusing fighting Sauron because there is no difference?) There is no bad guy in this movie, Kylo Ren loses again all of his fights and Rey win them all anyone knows why (because they wanted to create a strong and independent female character). They changed Ren's scar because he was ugly with it and removes his helmet at the beginning losing all the strenght the character had with it. He kills his father and doesn't even have dark side eyes? WTF?? Honestly I'd love a female character like Ripley, Sanchez, Imperator Furiosa etc... but no... she doesn't need training or anything else, thats just for male jedi. What about Snoke (lol), Finn, Phasma (lol), Ren Knights, Leia(LOL), R2D2, Chewie etc? Forget them, they wasted. At the end of TESB you cared for absolutely every character, bad one or not, you knew them and watched them evolve and grow. It doesnt happen here, everything is at the same point but filled with many marvel and out of place jokes and new creatures just for merchandising.

Why there is a role for that asian woman? It is ABSOLUTELY unnecessary, but hey, you make a black guy kiss an asian woman and everything is beautiful even if their actions were unnecessary. You can call me racist or another **** like that, and you will be wrong, I dont have any problem with the ethnic of anyone in ANY situation, I only care for his/her act and role, and honestly, her character was forced in order to represent a beautiful and multicultural society (just with the resistance, the bad guys are all of them white males, of course)

My english is bad and I cant explain as I would want, just watch it and judge yourself, but please, dont give your hard owned money to the empire and his minions, even if you find 20 bucks on the floor, they dont deserve it.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Out of all the recent Star Wars movies this one was my most anticipated. Ok the Force Awakens might have just rehashed the Episode 4 story but it put the fun and adventure back into series and gloriously built up to the moment where The Last Jedi begins... Oh ok the start of the movie was crap. The middle of the movie was crap and yep the end of the movie was crap too, for all the reasons the other audience reviews have mentioned over and over. I so wanted to like this movie but it's crap - total crap with exception of the mighty fine visual effects. It's such a dog it just might kill the whole Star Wars series completely. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is my first review on this site. I had to do it, this movie was just so horrible. Huge plot holes. The director seems as if he has NEVER seen a Star Wars movie in his life. He completely disregarded where Force Awakens left off. The characters have ZERO character development. Finn was pointless. Leia turned into superman in space. Luke Skywalker became a total wimp, getting a beat down by a girl with zero training whatsoever. So much for Yoda's training. This movie makes no sense. They killed off a sith lord that you knew NOTHING about. I found myself so detached from the characters. The movie was painful. Even the humor was not funny. I want my money back. The worst Star Wars movie of them all. i was pretty shocked. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After hearing other people talk about the movie I figured I'd still probably at least enjoy the movie even if I wouldn't love it like the last one. However I am shocked at how disappointing this movie was! Snoke was nothing more than a plot device with zero payoff to who he is, Rey's parents end up being nothing, Luke's death at the end is totally "wat," and it basically made every male in the movie into either a blundering idiot or a villain while every female was righteous, smart and valorous... I'm all for equal male/female treatment but this was not equal at all. The story was filled with holes and totally broken. It had a few cool action sequences which were neat and some humor here and there but otherwise, a major disappointment. I would rate this one as being just as bad as Phantom Menace. Expand

The movie was visually stunning, but it has many problems. Firstly, I was bored. Finn and Rose are useless, Rey is a boring protagonist, hooks from TFA were dropped.

Moreover, the more I think about the movie, I get the impression that the director actively dislikes the Star Wars IP and wanted to subvert all of its tropes and undermine the established characters. I took off an extra point for that. I'd be able to withstand the movie if it was just boring, but I will now make a conscious choice to never go to another star wars film in theaters.

Star Wars is dead I refuse to include these Disney Star Wars movies as Canon. Will not be seeing episode 9 and will warn everyone I know not to see this move or 9. No I'm not a Bot or some Butt hurt fan or sexist that Disney and the media would have you believe. Look at the difference between the Audience and Critics score here and on rotten tomatoes (RT being 91% critics and 49% audience) Disney has gotten so big and so powerful that I truly believe Critics are paid off or just scared to give their honest opinion of the movie in fear of being blacklisted.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Hated almost everything about this movie. Why call this a sequel to anything when it takes whats come before in either The Force Awakens or the Original Trilogy and either ignores it (who is Snoke?), minimizes it (Rey's parents are nobody's, Ackbar dies offscreen, Captain Phasma still undeveloped, or trashes it (pretty well everything else...) Not going to waste time on how many ways this movie is a colossal failure as the countless meaningful reviews here already spell it all out. Its pathetic how the paid critics lined up in praise.

TLJ will have zero longevity; it will become and remain the most hated and forgotten (repressed) SW film of all time. peace out, franchise! i give this 2 stars because i know how yer GD algorithms work. This film deserves a 0, MAYBE a 1, for John Williams. but the film was so bad I couldn't even hear the music, all I could hear was SJW harping: "whites suck. men suck. star wars fans suck. tradition sucks. religion sucks. capitalism sucks. america sucks. animals are more important than humans. veganism is amazing. blah blah effity blah.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie defies all expectations - not by exceeding them, but rather by tossing them into the trash compactor. The force is treated with little respect (I am aware it's a fantasy story) and the Skywalker bloodline is made irrelevant; anyone can be a Jedi with little to no training. By the way we are to now to ponder in a postmodern sense about whether the Jedi are ultimately a good thing. We are treated to not-so-subtle lessons in how terrible men are at leading and accomplishment, while simultaneously drilled on how great women are at all things. The larger than life mastermind of the wannabe Empire is dispatched as if he were nonessential to the plot of the new trilogy. The same fate befalls the underused Boba Fe.... I mean Captain Phasma. Finn, who really needs a good story line, is now sent to an ultimately useless mission that spins as an on the nose / finger wagging moral lesson on war and greed. His pal is a new character created to ensure sales for the international market. BB8 isn't even developed beyond a couple of quick scenes, but Chewbacca does make a cameo near the beginning an end. It's as if the director wants to say to all of the fans, "Star Wars is silly and forgettable, laugh at Luke drinking milk from the teat of a sea cow and shut up!" It is an epic troll, a spit in the face of the spirit of the original trilogy. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last Jedi is the worst Star Wars movie.

Here is just some reasons why:
- all style over substance
- all subversion over substance
- bad or misplaced humor
- numerous plot holes
- pointless new characters and side story
- destroys Luke character
- nearly no character growth
- ignores most setups from ep 7
- everything feels so anticlimactic

Some say it has gone to bold new direction, but at the end we are again left with empire vs. rebels...

What a disappointment.

Starwarsfan1977Mar 7, 2018
This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie is so bad, both me and my father who are lifelong fans are insulted. We both have seen every star wars in the theater since 1977, and we can honestly say that when Lucas sold it to Disney it was over because clearly the same man no longer has his fingerprints anywhere on the movies. Even Mark Hamill in recent interviews slammed this movie. "Its not how I would have handled the situation as Luke Skywalker." Lets go over some points why this movie was terrible: 1. The first three movies, 1977 1980 1982 were basically a space soap opera. You became emotionally invested in the main 7-10 characters. The movie plot was built around these characters with action but it was always about these characters which became family.
2. The new movies. Never build up characters up the same way. Who cares about that new pilot? Who really cares about Ren like you cared about Princess Leia? These people never grew or were introduced like a family as in the first movies. The were just individuals wandering around the plot points on separate paths. This did not allow you to become emotionally invested with them.
3. The plot is haphazard, like pieces of a puzzle scattered all about a table from a 1000 piece puzzle. There were many points where you were saying to yourself, why is this part here? For example, why am I watching an alien horse breakout for 15 minutes?
4. Weak bad guy. The first three star wars movies there was a strong bad guy. Darth Vader. This new bad guy? Unsure of himself. Weak. Self doubting. That is really poor for a movie. You want strong opposite polar characters. The bad and the good. Darth Vader and Princess Leia. 5. You can no longer vibe with the old characters they brought back. Its like going to prison for 30 years then coming back home and realizing you dont really know these people anymore. Leia is some old lady no longer with the fiery personality she once had. She doesnt look or act the same. No longer know or recognize her. Luke is now a quitter. Doesnt act like Luke Skywalker. Even tried to murder his apprentice in his sleep. Dies at the end for no reason, almost like he just gave up. Not the Luke I know. And Han just came back for a cameo last movie before he got dispatched. All of them never got back like a family, they were all on their own separate paths. And don't forget the awkward hug between Han and Leia. No romantic long drawn out kiss between them now that they are old, right?
6. Same old (general) storyline, poorly rehashed. Hey, didnt the republic win at then end of Star wars 6 in 1983? Once again its the empire or some version of it chasing down a small band of rebels. Already been there, done that.
So to recap, this was a jigsaw scattered movie with a weak plot with characters you cant emotionally invest in containing cameos of characters you formerly loved but cannot reconnect with basically redoing a movie plot that was already handed in the first three Star Wars movies. It is quite clear the that man who did the first 6 movies handed it off to someone else and these 2 recent movies are somewhat soulless in comparison, being cranked out by a corporate entity who bought the intellectual property with the motive of profit. Yes, of this writing, the movie made close to 800 million dollars. Which means the bottom line says they are going to make more. However as people clue in that these are not the same movies they used to be, profits will fall.
In my personal library I have on DVD on a shelf Star Wars (1977) The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and the Return of the Jedi (1983) along with the next 3 prequels from the early to mid 2000s (Star wars I-III). And as far as I am concerned, that is it. Series completed. These last two movies were like poor fan movies. Yes, this movie blew. I am going to have to cleanse the palate by watching the original Star Wars and forgot I ever saw this.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Visuals are cool.

The script is full of plotholes, poor dialogue, missed oppertunities, ridiculously overpowered protagonists, inane badguys (that are somehow able to conquer a galaxy, but unable to think or strategize). And plenty more. This movie is going to make me stay clear of Solo, and episode nine, untill such a time I see reviews by my favorite Youtube critics. As for the next trilogy, I have severe doubts I will go see them.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There's a way to go your own way without giving a giant middle finger to your fan base. Heck, I didn't consider myself a star wars aficionado at all and this movie still made me irrationally angry about the treatment of the characters (specifically Luke). *rant begin* If this was anything but Star Wars the critics would have taken it to school over the lack of consistent tone (weird and off-putting humor abounds in what are otherwise supposed to be significant and awesome moments. And yes, there is a "your mom" joke in the first 5 minutes), the lack of character growth, the lack of physics/ any real rules in this universe now, and the overall disjointedness of the plot (Watch Disney shoehorn in a completely useless subplot to take a shot at rich aristocrats. Look, I hate rich aristocrats as much as the next person, but it comes off as hypocritical when Disney is simultaneously beating small theater owners into submission with new screening demands.). Every critic's newspaper that published a glowing review of this mess is trying to divert attention and say that all the bad reviews are from the alt-right people who can't stand feminists. But hey, the alternative would be to admit that they are really just in Disney's pockets. I guess the alt-right boogeymen story will have to do. I voted for Hillary. I didn't vote for Star Wars to turn into a ham-fisted attempt at social commentary. These movies were supposed to be an escape. A chance to take your mind off of the bitter division in today's politics and believe in real heroes again. Sadly, the only escape you will get from this movie is when the lights come on and you can move on with your life and accept that these movies aren't for you anymore. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was really looking forward to The Last Jedi after how much fun the The Force Awakens was despite its problems. Instead of finding a creative way to play with the viewers expectations and take the universe into a bold new direction, The Last Jedi treats us to 2.5 hours of dumb characters doing dumb things that are ultimately pointless by the end of the film. Returning characters are underwritten and never find their footing while new characters are uninteresting and annoying. Rose just might be the Jar Jar Binks of this generation.

1 star for bringing back muppet Yoda.

Rehashed action scenes that make you think you've seen them before somewhere such as the original trilogy, and just a disorienting 2.5 hour mess of a movie that does little else besides assasinate characters you care about and shove down your throat characters that you don't.

John Williams kills it as usual, and the movie looks great but the story is so bad you can't help but feel that it is truly meant to just be insulting to the fanbase on purpose.

I can no longer support anything Rian Johnson directs from here on out. Easily the worst Star Wars movie I have ever seen. I had a lot of problems with Episode 7 (plot holes mostly) but I generally enjoyed it in theatres. I hate this movie, I will never watch it again. This movie does nothing else for me besides make me hate it more the more I think about it.

Skip this movie Star Wars fans. Do yourself that favor.

I've always loved the Star Wars movies, but this can barely call itself that. While the Force Awakens was by no means a great movie, it did set up some interesting plot and backstory questions moving forward. Then this movie came along and completely destroyed any hope this new trilogy had. It ruined the backstory questions surrounding both Rey and Snoke, though I can't say how or why without spoiling the movie. The Last Jedi succumbed to every bad trend developing in modern movies. Painfully awkward nonchalant humor? The Last Jedi has it. A useless story arc with a social justice message? The Last Jedi has it. While Daisy Ridley once again does a fine job in her role, John Boyega, Adam Driver, and just about everyone else deliver subpar performances. Neither Mark Hamill nor Carrie Fisher are anything to be amazed by in this movie, though they aren't as bad as some of their co-stars. The plot starts where the Force Awakens ended, which was in a decent place, and completely destroys everything about it. Story-wise I seriously don't know what they're going to do with the final episode. The writing seemed so unbelievably lazy that it could be considered borderline disrespectful. There were scenes that made me die a little inside at how either badly written or poorly executed they were, including a space scene in which something so unbelievably cringe-worthy and ridiculous happens that you want to get up and walk out of the movie (those who have seen it know what I'm talking about). The worst part to me is the fact that these movies aren't done like Star Wars movies anymore. The writers and directors seem to have no respect or care for the history of the saga and what its many elements mean. The way the characters use the force, pilot ships, and just generally act feels less and less like Star Wars every time one of these movies comes out. I would NOT recommend this film to anyone who values their money and time. Expand

Viewing this was the first time I was ever bored during a Star Wars movie. This movie is waaaay too long. The casino scenes went on forever and were nothing but terrible CGI and awful writing.

Why are people so impressed by the visuals? Some of the effects were really good but there was a lot of *really bad* CGI.

The writing in this movie is horrible. I hope I will never see another movie by Rian Johnson. I now have zero respect for anything he does.

I think this is the worst Star Wars movie I have ever seen. I didn't think it was possible to be worse than 'Phantom Menace' or 'Attack of the Clones' but... Yes, if I were forced to pick one of the three to watch, it would never be this one.

I'm not a fan-boy. Number of theories I had going into this movie: zero. Number of "Star Wars" books I have read: zero. My interest in the 'expanded universe': zero. All I wanted to see was a good movie. Instead, I got this terrible tripe that has far too many flaws to even bother listing, here.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've never been a big star wars fan. I watched the movies cause there were entertaining and the light-saber & space battle were cool. But this movie is beyond bad ! Seeing Chewbacca having some thought about becoming a vegan even if he is a 200 years old alien beast, should just convince you how much this movie is crap.

Rey is useless, her story pointless. Same for Snoke, same for everything and everyone...

I think that people putting good score on this movie are the same people that try to convince themselves that modern art is actually art... It's pathetic !

This movie is pure sh*t, the actors don't even try to be credible because they know the plot of that new Disney trilogy don't make any sens. It just an bad attempt to make money on the nostalgia of people ! And the worst part is : it actually work. They earned a ton of money from that movie ! What a shame, what a f*cking shame.

I will not go see the others movies, Star Wars is dead to me! And I can spare you some time by reveling you the end of star wars : there is no end the franchise will be milked out until the cow dies !

I didn’t have a fan theory, and I wasn’t looking for nostalgia coming into TLJ, I just wanted the story to continue. Instead what I got is the character assassination of Luke, all the interesting new characters become irrational and pointless and a bunch of plot holes and new cannon that makes the suspension of disbelief more difficult for this and all the other past movies. The visuals were Amazing, the fight scenes and the space fights were also probably the best in the franchise. And the porgs were adorable. The new planets were visually stunning and super interesting for future media. But I just can’t get past the narrative; the actual story being told itself, mostly characters making decisions inconsistent with their personalities, pointless side stories. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have been reading a lot about this movie since I saw it about 2 weeks ago. I avoided all the hype leading up to it and never managed to see it in theaters. I didn’t pay attention and didn’t even know that there was this whole back and forth about this movie with trolls, backlash, etc… and I certainly didn’t have a “fan theory” to apply to this movie. Oh, and I am not a bot or overzealous “fanboy” either.
I grew up on Star Wars original trilogy as a kid. My brother and I had (and loved) the Star Wars action figures and other toys, it was part of our world back then. I saw the prequel trilogy and was generally a bit disappointed, but now I see that everything, including disappointment, is relative. I actually liked more about Revenge of the Sith than I disliked. So, onto this movie: I hated it, flat-out. To me, it was a combination of cop-outs and cringeworthily moments. I’ve read a lot of reviews from professional movie critics and have seen the same thing over and over: something along the lines of “this movie bravely went in a new direction and did not feel ‘constrained’ by the past” . Pause right there: this is not a good thing in and of itself, especially when the tradition established by the prior movies create the coat-tails that this movie is riding on. It reminds me exactly of how I thought about Peter Jackson’s treatment of “The Hobbit” after he did such a good job overall with “Lord of the Rings”. Seeing the bar drop so low can make one with standards become very cynical. The fan reviews appear to be written, for the most part, by people who saw something that frustrated them so much that they felt compelled to vent about it, as the only avenue open to them. That’s where I stand, even knowing probably no one will read this. And, yes, I opened this account solely to write this one review for this one movie. Other reviewers blasted so many holes in the plot that I don’t feel the need to do a similar laundry-list of what is wrong with this movie, and honestly there are a few re-occurring complaints that I don’t find to be a problem.
Cop-outs:
Who was Snoke, where did he come from, why was he so powerful, how was he able to build the First order out of the defeated Empire. No explanation and no plausibility offered
How did the Rebel Alliance go from victor to diminished band of outlaws?
What is the backstory with Luke and Ben Solo? Too much is glossed over
It’s like the Rebel victory at Endor and Jakuu didn’t even happen. Kylo Ren: not a convincing villain at all, reminds me of Edward from Twilight Cringe-worthy moments:
Prank phone call from Po to Hux- this really set the bar so low right from the start…
Porgs.. and interaction with Chewbacca.. culminating in one of them wearing a ^&%$ porg-sized headset in the cockpit of Millennium Falcon The Rose character… out of place in the Star wars universe. Too preachy and naive and forced relationship with Finn (who I thought was supposed to be involved with Rey ?). Casino scenes. Over the top CGI characters plugging coins into BB8 lot a slot machine, then he (?) shoots them out like a machine gun at some guard Of course, princess Leia’s using the force to suck her back into the ship.. jeezus that was one of the worst moments in cinematic history right there. Re-hash of battle of Hoth : it had some good points, but too much like a re-occurring sequence from Empire Strikes back. At least there were no salt tuan-tuans… but the crystal coyotes of salt-world were one of those out-of-place childish elements that were used because, you know, we have CGI and can place anything in a movie. BB8 hot-wiring a scout walker on board Star Destroyer.
Rey not needing any real training to become bad-ass force user able to levitate rocks that Luke couldn’t even do.
Wasted scene with Rey going into hole on Luke’s planet wasted time where nothing profound is uncovered or learned.
The whole way Luke was. Obi-wan also “lost” Anakin to the dark side, but he wasn’t the same grouch that they turned Luke into. Agree with others that the whole idea of Luke leaving a map to his location is in direct contradiction to the way Luke was when he was found. The defenses of these departures from the established Star Wars universe have been described as “brave” or “visionary” or whatever by the professional critics I have read, but many other fans, think they suck. If the only measure of quality is if you go against all tradition and continuity that came before you, we could all write stories where water flows uphill and the critics would be singing our praises because we were so brave to go against tradition (and physics) and do something “new”. I’m glad that I don’t feel the need to be as attached to this as I did when I was young and impressionable, but Star Wars is now dead to me, I won’t bother with Episode 9.

All the elements that were built up in the previous movie were discarded in very unsatisfying manners. There are several very large plot holes and even little actions throughout the movie have terrible motivation--even the basic science of the universe is discarded. On the plus side, the actors playing Rey and Kylo continue to show that they are phenomenal actors and they actually have some interesting interactions in this show. That's the part everyone likes. But the movie overall was so destructive we would be better of if it had not been created because it changes the universe to make existing movies worse. I'd say it's as bad as or worse than the prequels in that regard.

Score: awful. Not only is it not a good movie, it actively makes our world worse.

There are always differences of opinion depending onI’m writing this because I was wasting time on the internet and ended up seeing some of the initial critics’ glowing reviews of The Last Jedi (It's an 85, "must see" here on metacritic). There are always differences of opinion depending on what you want out of a movie, but watching people write about how they convinced themselves this movie succeeded in any way has been outside the normal range. It’s a little bizarre honestly, and fairly excruciating to listen to the phrases being turned to try to explain how this film wasn’t a failure. It wasn’t even impressively bad, it’s just boring and mediocre and uncomfortable. Be honest people, this doesn’t “turn the franchise on its head” or any other stupid euphemism, it’s an insecure and cynical mess that confuses self-ridicule with innovation and tries to be non-formulaic by setting up suggestive premises and then going nowhere with them. It’s like the creators are constantly daring the audience to care about where things are going and seeing how many times they can make you think this movie will eventually go anywhere before you just give up and start zoning out on special FX. Even the parts that deserve some appreciation don’t work well. The sequence on the Las Vegas-style resort world, notwithstanding that it’s completely superfluous to the plot, points out that many people are profiting from the war by selling arms to both sides. I appreciate that the story went out of its way to make that point, but if you are going to use fantasy to provide insight into reality, don’t do it by trying to out-realize reality. If I want to see war profiteering, I’ll just watch the news. This would not have been a hard movie to get right, but instead of the characters evolving naturally they just get repeatedly slammed through these disjointed scenarios ostensibly written to convince you that this isn’t “the same old Star Wars”. I was not a big Force Awakens fan and I don’t want the same old Star Wars, but this movie feels like being in a room full of friends that have lost interest in each other and are killing time by self-consciously making fun of themselves for trying too hard. The prequel trilogy was amateurish, but at least it had a plot and believed in where it was going. This movie might be the biggest flop of the bunch. Hey, sometimes your college try just doesn’t land and you get a real stinker. Life goes on, just stop with this weird insistence that this movie somehow accomplished anything beyond set design.

No intersting aliens, you could have made a new replacement for chewie but he's barely there at all. Chewies a fan favorite and so was luke and han but they are gone now. I will never care about star wars again unless these disney films are stricken from the cannon. I am still young but do I have to wait 20 years till disney dumps star wars as a loss and some new fresh company makes star wars great again.

This installment is a disgrace compared to the OT. Disney used the OT cast to draw us old fans in, pure for the money. But they destroyed the spirit, lore and characters in the OT and now are suprised fans aren't loving it...

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The award of most disappointing movie goes to... This pile of crap! what a mess my god... rey still has no weaknesses, luke is a coward FOR THE WHOLE MOVIE and just dies on a rock, yep he dies on a rock, let me say this again, luke skywalker... dies on a rock. there are 2 good scenes near the end of the second act of course being the throne room fight and the hyperspace scene, which of course adds a plot hole for the rest of the series, same with space fuel, yeah critics gave this a 10. now, on to snokes death. 2 weeks before the movie director rian jhonson literally said in a interview snoke is more powerful than darth vader and the emperor COMBINED. and he just dies. that's it.
ok, this review was satire PLEASE tell me no one took this seriously

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Even when you take out all the blatant identity politics in this film it's got more trash than the Great Pacific Garbage patch. They bludgeon the legacy of the original trilogy so thoroughly I can't even look at Luke at this point - how in Christ's name did that milk scene get greenlit?? The story completely non-sensical and sloppy. Disney can pretend a bunch of "trolls" are to blame for hating on this movie - nope ... this is what happens when you **** all over a universe that brought joy and love to millions over decades.

Aside from Kylo (and even that's a stretch) there isn't one compelling personality in the bunch. And I'm sorry, but, while she's a perfectly likable protagonist in some respects, Rey is a ridiculously over-powered Mary Sue ... she is ... at no point do you ever feel she's going to deal with real adversity, take a hit, have to dig deep ... she's handled with kid gloves and that makes it BORING. Good movies connect you with the character - make you feel their highs and lows.

I didn't both going to Solo. I won't go to the next Star Wars either. I won't buy their merchandise anymore - not out of spite but because it's just tainted. The things they could have done to revivify this amazing franchise! I write all this out of sadness. Sadness that I probably won't be able to hand this to my kids one day or larp it up at a premier.

So - to Disney : you ****** this one up. You should be ashamed of yourself. Lazy, sloppy, boring, ideologically driven drivel. I gave it one star cuz some of landscapes and ship design were beautiful.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The movie looked amazing and had tons of spectacle but once you stop to think about it for a second the whole thing completely falls apart. Admiral Holdo's refusal to tell Poe the plan led to the most contrived conflict I have every seen in a film. Canto Bite is the most embarrassing thing to happen to star wars since jar jar (and the Rose saving Finn scene but I have bigger fish to fry). Kylo has more personalities than the goddamn villain from Split. The way this movie handed Luke was at worst a complete slap in the face to Mark Hamill and one of the most beloved star wars characters of all time and at best completely lazy (giving his personality a complete 180 because things during the 30 years after Return of the Jedi without showing what the hell happened and why). Then the movie killed him for no reason meaning there is no way to redeem himself in Episode 9. And oh boy did the movie handle the fact that they were in space horribly. Arching Lasers, bombs dropped in space, no depressurization when opening the airlock etc. The infamous Leia Poppins scene was...uncomfortable to say the least given the context. There was a particular scene that I think sums up the entirety of the movie. The scene were Yoda appears to Luke. It makes you smile for a second until he calls down lightning and destroys the library thing. Then you just shake your head and feel bad because you see what Rian was clearly going for and what he was trying to do but the poor guy just missed the mark with this movie. Expand

They completely dismissed the original characters or made them all quick cut out throwaways why even bring them back. Luke Skywalker deserved a better fate, Han Solo Deserved a better fate. 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.

Butane9000Dec 19, 2019
This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't intend there to be any spoilers but they may appear:

The core takeaway from this movie is it's disaster of a plot. Star Wars hasn't every had really stunning plots or story telling. But fundamentals of writing and viewer engagement is ignored. Combined with the plot requiring character assassination of everything we knew from previous installments.

The biggest flaw with The Last Jedi is it's director deciding that this film (the second in a trilogy) will end all story arcs created in The Force Awakens. The inherent problem is that this is in fact a trilogy and therefore story arcs need to continue into the third chapter to bring the story into completion and give you time to build satisfying endings. By choosing to do this the director irreparably harmed the future installment(s) as the third chapter has nothing real to build on. In this regard The Last Jedi is a complete narrative failure.

The start with the centerpiece of the movie. The space chase, a manufactured and entirely unnecessary plot device and source of tension through the movie. This creates the side plot to create the character Rose who is essentially without any substantive meaning and appears to be thrown in for some form of diversity quota. Rose's love interest to Finn character is also out of nowhere and entirely unnecessary. The space chase also creates the second side plot of Poe vs the Commander which is entirely unnecessary as Poe being the commander of her fighter squadron is of rank to be included in their strategy discussions. This results in Poe staging a "coup" that fails even though by narrative there was no reason for it except extra tension in an otherwise emotionless situation.

Adding onto the space chase is the gutting of established canon of the franchise. Lasers arcing in zero gravity as if they had gravity. A person in space essentially frozen flying themselves with the force they were never trained with back to safety though by all accounts they were dead. Military forces on both sides acting as if they have zero military background is basic tactics.

The character assassination of Luke was by far the most appalling in that they committed it but he had the most intriguing plot device that wasn't used. Luke attempted to murder his nephew to prevent the darkness from rising. The same Luke that ignored Yoda and Obi-wans suggesting to kill Vader and to go above and beyond to redeem and save him. The Luke full of compassion becomes old, cynical, and places himself into exile ultimately deciding the Jedi order needs to end. This is by far the most compelling plot device because it essentially sets up a Luke vs Snoke comparison and story that's never acted on. Snoke mentions the failure of the Sith (Emperor & Vader) and that it was good they failed. Luke thinks the Jedi need to end because they inevitably bring ruin to the galaxy. However both Luke and Snoke have very different beliefs in the force and what it is and how it should be used. This is by far the most wasted plot device of the whole movie.

The most visually stunning scene (the hyperspace jump) is created by again showing the supposed strongest military order in the galaxy is incompetent. After looking back at this movie it makes me irrationally angry not that the franchise was damaged by this (which is was and continues to be) but that it's writing is so bad I talk to people about it and they can't remember core details of the movie except that it exists.

I watched this movie back when it released and I haven't watched Solo and don't plan on watching Rise of Skywalker. I can say irrevocably this movie was a narrative disaster in writing regardless of how you feel about other controversial subjects regarding it's characters.

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 movie had excellent music and beautiful cinematography, but none of that mattered once the character started acting. The acting was atrocious and the plot was ridiculous. I felt like I was watching a Star Wars spoof. Rian Johnson did the one thing that I thought was impossible—he made me not care about the next Star Wars movie.

Despite having a collection of over 3000 movies I rarely post a review on movie sites...but this movie deserves its increasingly poor rating.

The cinematography is excellent, as is the score and the effects...but the story is a mess.
Despite having a collection of over 3000 movies I rarely post a review on movie sites...but this movie deserves its increasingly poor rating.

The cinematography is excellent, as is the score and the effects...but the story is a mess. Juvenile humour that is jarringly out of place for a Star Wars movie, "world mechanics" that are internally contradictory, repeated middle fingers to significant events in the Force Awakens (which made the rebooted franchise fun to watch).

I'm not even hating on the movie for its blatant political messages or gender and racial biases.

This movie is not a Star Wars story, because it gives middle fingers to plot points from the original movies that started the franchise.

If all someone has to do is fly a starship into an enemy at lightspeed, why the hell did the rebels sacrifice most of their best pilots in a new hope on a million to one chance that someone could drop a photon torpedo down the thermal exhaust port?

Light-speed through the death star...problem solved with one death. Luke Skywalker wasn't needed. At all.

Which is the basic point of why this entire movie is not a Star Wars story...Skywalker is unnecessary. The past is meaningless and insignificant. Giving middle fingers to past episodes by belittling amazing plot points is not "innovative, bold and fresh" storytelling; it is not "growth and revitalization" of a franchise. It's a lazy and disrespectful deconstruction of previously brilliant, original, inspired movie-making!

Rian Johnson should be ashamed that he wrote and filmed this. He is now as dead to me as Brett Ratner since X-3.

Dear Kathleen Kennedy. I will never pay for another Disney-Wars movie. I am infinitely grateful I saw this for free at a sponsored screening. The cosmic irony is that Spaceballs celebrated its 30th anniversary this year...considering that a number of themes from it were used in this movie.

My disappointment has rarely been so profound.

The 1 star is for John Williams, the effects guys, and the unfortunate actors and crew that were contractually obligated to make this stinker. The studios, writers, producers and directors get 0 stars.
