This movie is different and that doesn't make it bad sorry that it didn't meet your theories and it expanded the universe and added something new to it. Luke was great and his arc made sense. Great movie. Best star wars yet. sorry empire

After having read hours of user reviews and comments I've swayed back and forth between masterpiece and mediocre. There are just so jaw dropping moments in the movie and I love how they've figuratively thrown away baggage and tropes of the previous movies to create something new. I feel that in 10 years time this will be more fully appreciated by the fans once it's seen in the complete context of the full trilogy (and the future trilogy.) Expand

This is the best Star Wars movie I have ever watched. It is deep, moving, political, smart, funny and it doesn't shy away from any risks. This is, of course, my opinion, but I felt like I had to come here and fight this horde of people attacking a movie that is pushing the series forward. These same people would have hated The Empire Strikes Back if it came out today. This is the best acted and scripted movie of the series and some of the dialogue will "stay" with me for a long, long time. Expand

У этих пидарасов всё, что не оригинальная трилогия, то говно. Обоснуйте объективно, чем вам не понравился фильм? Актёрская игра? Нет, это кино за 200 миллионов бакосв, здесь по умолчанию отличная актёрская игра. Сюжет? А чем он плох? Несколько сюжетных линий, развивающихся параллельно, пересекающихся и в конце концов сводящиеся воедино. Прямо как в ваших любимых Мстителях, что тут не так? Раскрыли характеры новых персонажей, уже знакомых показали с других сторон. Или по вашему Люку не свойственно боятся и переживать? Это абсолютный герой, которому чуждо всё человеческое? Быть может, если вы так думаете, проблема в вас? Экшен? Качественный и изобретательный, приятно смотреть и осознавать, что фильм не состоит на 100% из одних только перестрелок, как ебучие Трансформеры или Форсаж.

Так в чём проблема? А проблема в вас. Ведь в кой-то век вас поставили на место, дав понять, что угождать вам вечно не собираются. "Всё должно быть по канону!", но почему канон нельзя менять или дополнять, дав взглянуть на известную сагу по новому? "Новые персонажи -- говно, раньше были лучше!". Будем честны, если поменять местами персонажей и трилогии, вы бы сказали то же самое. Дефолтные "они плохо раскрыты", я не принимаю. В течение двух фильмов стали ясны их характеры, взгляды, при том, что они не перестают преподносить сюрпризы.

Так что я, не являясь большим поклонником фильмов этой серии, конкретных актеров или режиссёра, и, соответственно, не имея явных причин защищать этот фильм, говорю: С КАКОЙ ТОЧКИ ЗРЕНИЯ НЕ ПОДОЙДИ, ЭТО, КАК МИНИМУМ, ХОРОШЕЕ КИНО, СТОЯЩЕЕ 300 РУБЛЕЙ ЗА БИЛЕТ И 2,5 ЧАСОВ ЖИЗНИ, БОЛЬШЕ, ЧЕМ ЛЮБОЙ ВЫСЕР MARVEL. И знаете что? Я хотя бы слова в предложения умею составлять и обосновывать свою позицию. Долбоёбы.

As a lifelong fan of Star Wars that read almost eveyr piece of EU content, and is currently caught up on all the current Canon, all the complaints people have about story and characters are unfounded. The only issues with this film are messy editing, misplaced comedy, and a few scenes that feel out of place. TLJ is finally taking Star Wars in a new and exciting direction. I made my review a 10 to make up for all the **** spamming "0" ratings. Realistically, I would give the movie an 8. It was a very good movie, but it had too many issues to ascend to greatness. Metacritic, you would get more REAL reviews if you did something about your bot problem. I'd like to see what this movie's score would be if you took out all the 0s, 1s, and 2s to remove obvious spammers. Expand

Quite simply I was glued & fixated to the screen and all the various plot twists & turns, smokescreensI first watched The Last Jedi in a Real3D Format on it's UK release date 14th December 2017 and absolutely loved the movie from end to end. Quite simply I was glued & fixated to the screen and all the various plot twists & turns, smokescreens & mirrors & misdirection's, and as for the humour, it was absolutely awesome and brought back some of those thoughts & feelings I had not experienced in a movie since young childhood & The Original Movie. So I felt that Official Reviewers throughout very many Media Realms had gotten it correct in Quality Reviews & reflected that position in there scores. Even character & actors I had not been overly impressed with in Episode VII had really upped there performances & contributions, if episode VII set the scene in a very narrow focussed World, then Episode VIII Expands that World Massively in multiple directions.

At some later point I became aware that attention was being drawn to RottenTomatoes & Metacritic Scores suggesting that Audiences are not happy blah blah blah & that the critics and so on had gotten it incorrect.

What could I do? Had I been that wrong? Well I wanted to see the film a 2nd time anyway and attended a 2D screening. Although I can cope with popular 3D, I usually between the 2, prefer 2D finding 3D effects etc. to often be an undesirable distraction. So on the second viewing there was less surprise, though very many details that you might miss within one sitting become apparent. Visually the film is jam-packed from scene to scene & sequence to sequence with very many 'references' or nods to other loved films & Star Wars Realms & this is where some segments of Fan-base are falling over themselves to make idiots of themselves in the critique. You may well suggest that A DIE HARD Fan would have to have knowledge of Star Wars throughout a Cinematic Realm, The Comic & Book Realm, The Video Game Realm, and so on. The film effectively & conclusively manages to include styles & ideas from across The Star Wars Empire or Universe, and most of the alleged 'Expert Fan' "complaints" actually do not hold water very well, if at all, because they are arriving from a "PURIST" knowledge viewpoint of cinema, or a "PURIST" knowledge viewpoint of comic book, or a "PURIST knowledge viewpoint of videogames.

My love for Star Wars began when I was very young, and that continued when I was 10, 20, 30, 40 - during that time period I have entertained dipping my toe (so to speak) in reading some odd comics & books and playing videogames as well as loving the Movie Series, so the wisdom I can perhaps share, is that this movie is being complained about by EXCEPTIONALLY SELFISH "diehard" 20 somethings or diehard 30 somethings who still want total possession & control of how they want the Star Wars realm to be for only themselves & their particular favourite realm gang or Audience Demographic.

The Movie Makers have effectively made a movie that spans generational tastes & realm tastes
effectively making what I would call a REAL INTERGENERATIONAL FAMILY MOVIE that can be enjoyed by people of all tastes & age ranges and has a special appeal to the young, perhaps experiencing there first or earliest special cinema trip at Christmas, just as the Original Movie was experienced by myself and friends during our young childhoods.

If you go in with dogmatic preconceived ideas as to how the movie has to be shaped & played out, then you will likely join the negativity gangs. If you go in open minded and wanting a fresh Star Wars or indeed Movie Experience that does not follow or conform to very many ideas that you might have thought of prior to seeing the movie, then you will likely walk out with a big grin, checking your diary as to when you can see it again and finding out when it is available on DVD or Streaming Services.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In 1980, the audience shared a collective groan as the The Empire Strikes Back ended--three long years to wait before the next movie in the series. In retrospect, the movie became my personal favorite from the original trilogy. The Last Jedi will share a similar fate. Angry fans struggling to let go of heroes and ideas from the last millennium will eventually return to the movie and see its full value. 1) Luke was always flawed and whiny--return to those "Uncle Owens" in Episode IV. Han, Leia and Luke will not provide a solution--a new generation is necessary to find an ultimate solution and to continue the story. Let go. 2) The notion behind the force has always been complex and shared a diverse religious foundation. The notion of a Christian good and evil was always mixed with a Taoist notion of yin and yang. The Taoist leaning of The Last Jedi is consistent with the direction of The Clone Wars. Let go. 3) The capabilities of the force are not a known quantity confined by previous movies. Astral projection across the universe seems at least as plausible as immortality. Let go. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I dont understand the fan backlash at all. It's an exciting and humorous film with a couple of plot problems and some poor editing. There are thing to dislike about this film, but there is also a great deal to like. If you're deeply invested in the star wars lore and charachters, you might be upset by its complete lack of fan service and errative plot. if you just want a fun time at the cinema, it's one of the best films of the year. I'm giving it 10 stars to counteract the astonishing brigading of undeserved one star reviews. This film is not perfect, but there is no way it deserves less than 5 stars. At worst, it is average.

A fantastic film and a unique Star Wars experience.

Rey and Kylo Ren develop a fascinating and unexpected relationship in this the 2nd installment of Disney's Star Wars Sequel Trilogy. The interplay between these two characters is the highlight of the film and the two actors have great on-screen chemistry.

Finn and new character Rose go on a journey that amounts to an exploration of the nature of war.

The Poe Dameron character is deepened from the one dimensional hero from The Force Awakens to a heroic but flawed man who can be reckless.

Leia and Luke are great in a supporting role and taken in new directions.

Overall a very satisfying movie.

"This is not going to go how you think" - Luke Skywalker

Ignore the contrite criticisms by wounded fanboys. They walked into the theater expecting a rush of nostalgia and instead they learned that their childhood is over and that this is the year 2017. Last Jedi is the first science fiction movie to suprize me in a while and it has succeeded in throwing out every cliched fan theory that the internet has been entertaining over the last two years. I didn't know much about Rian Johnson but I think he is one of the bravest blockbuster filmmakers around. He has breathed new life into a stagnant franchise by writing the first original story in years, creating a completely open playing field for the next instalment. P.S. You may have to watch it twice to fully appreciate the subtext, symbolism and visual brilliance.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To start, let me say that this isn't a perfect film. No movies are. But for me, this receives the highest rating for how it made me feel, especially after multiple viewings.
The tone of the film is one that I personally like, with the darkness and despair, mixed with a bit of hope. The plot subversions, with Snoke and Rey's parentage, were a welcome breath of fresh air, compared to the Mystery Boxes presented by JJ Abrams in The Force Awakens. Getting into it, Snoke was just as mysterious as the Emperor on the OT, but people years on didn't harp on the fact that we weren't given his back story. Why make a deal of it now? And to have Rey come from nothing gives greater weight to her accomplishments and the gravity of her power.
Finally, I would say that how Luke was portrayed was absolutely amazing. Us, as an audience, we were stuck in a time bubble from just after Episode VI, and even some with the EU that is now NOT canon. We might have seen some growth from the OT characters, but it wasn't the way we expected. And to see the growth go in the opposite direction from our expectations shouldn't make us mad and rant and rage. It should make us ponder and question and visualize the life that Luke lived to have come to such a point in his life. His struggle and trials probably mimic ours in this life more than people realize, aside from the whole Mystic-Force-Space-Opera side of it. He is more real now than he has ever been, and that makes him wonderful and relatable. Flaws and triumphs come together wonderfully to make this film the best I have ever seen, and makes it unbearable to wait to actually own it.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Finally! A Star Wars Movie that is fun to watch, that dares to take new directions in this old, old Galaxy! I understand all the hate this movie is getting as it basicly tells all the fanatics that they were wrong, that there is no God, that Luke is not a hero, he is a person, a broken one and that the Force is not exclusive to a specific bloodline or immaculate conception (Anakin). For me, I think of it as a new beginning for the franchise, the one where Skywalker dynasty is not in the center of entire Galaxy and the Galaxy, the real people, start to fight for their own. Plotholes? When You disagree with the direction You will find them everywhere this is not an issue here, as they were not an issue in Empire Strikes Back. I recommend everyone to watch this movie, You will not be dissapointed! I only hope that creators will not chicken out and will continue to - boldly go where no one has gone before ;) Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spoilers ahead:

Have you ever had that one brief moment of weakness, that one action, that ruins a relationship cultivated over years? Have you ever wanted to give up or been disillusioned? Many of us who have lived a life full with ups and downs, joys and regrets, can see ourselves in this Luke Skywalker. How could one live up to the hype? The victor over the Emperor, the destroyer of the Death Star -- evil was supposed to have been defeated. What if one moment of weakness brought back everything you had worked so hard to achieve?

As we grow older, we can be consumed by regret; Luke Skywalker, in the end, does not succumb to apathy and withdrawal, but confronts the evil posed by his nephew in a way that befits the one who defeated the Emperor -- he truly is a Jedi, like his father before him. He does not have a moment of violence, like Vader in Rogue One, or even Yoda in Revenge of the Sith and Attack of the Clones. No, he stays true to the light. Even if he was there in person, I believe the fight would have gone exactly the same way. The defeat of the good guys leads to a new resolve, and the best Star Wars since Empire Strikes Back.

And for everyone complaining about Leia: Yoda said, "there is another Skywalker". She knew that Luke was alive after DS2, she heard him through the force in ESB, she resisted Vader's interrogation (which uses the force, even Luke couldn't hide the truth about Leia from Vader). It is obvious that she's very force sensitive.

One of the best Star Wars ever...

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The movie is so far so great. Rian Johnson has taken it into a new directions that are different from the Original trilogy. It's totally acceptable for Luke Skywalker to die and become one with the force after Han's death in The Force Awakens and Leia's FORCED death in the upcoming Episode IX. Yes, we loved the original trilogy so much, yes, we loved the triangle Luke-Leia-Han so much. However, they cannot be there FOREVER in the story. It's time for new blood and different characters to lead and rule in the galaxy far, far away. Therefore, the way The Last Jedi has redirected the saga is totally great and just in time. Expand

I fail to see how anyone can call this "the worst".
I could understand some disappointment, otherwise it is IMO a solid piece of film and my new favorite SW film tied with ESB.
This is probably gonna get a lot of down votes.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. "The Last Jedi" was an unpretentiously subversive, bold, hilarious, auteur-driven, beautifully presented, humanist, and emotionally powerful film with some of the most wonderful action, acting, writing, themes, and characters in all of "Star Wars." It is about as polished as a film in this franchise could get, stands as well on it's own as V and VI, and it is the least “corporately-driven” installment since "The Empire Strikes Back."

It supplants practically every single convenience, trope, and expectation associated with the series (romances are unrequited loves, legendary heroes are flawed and tragic icons, what seem like great coincidences result in dismal failures, etc.) and in turn succeeds in giving it palpable growth and stakes while presenting simple, but powerful/all-encompassing themes that should be taken to heart.

"But Luke's development was an inexcusable betrayal to his character!"

Luke's characterization was entirely appropriate for a western monomyth hero. Just look at Arthurian Legend and its central figure's not so happy story, which has always served as one of the blueprints for Luke's writing. It's especially appropriate given the implications that the impulsive nature and rage he displayed in both V and VI make about him. There's even a meta-narrative argument to be made concerning George Lucas's background and ideology while he was writing the original trilogy in the aftermath of the Vietnam War era, and this makes Luke's disillusioned veteran portrayal even more apropos. After all, this new trilogy is already meta to begin with in how it treats the legacy of "Star Wars" with characters like Rey and Kylo Ren, both of whom are technically "Star Wars" fans.

Luke endured an awful conflict for much of his life. It took away friends, family, and scarred him for life. After it's over, he finally knows peace, only to find out years later that Ben will reignite those horrors. In what way, shape, or form is it not logical or faithful to his character to have him experience murderous intent in this scenario, only for it to "pass like a fleeting shadow," not unlike what happened in the aftermath of Luke and Vader's final duel? He saw light in his father, but he saw darkness in his nephew.

But sure, all of this is somehow way less interesting and respectful towards Luke Skywalker as a character than how the Expanded Universe had him cowardly betraying all of his friends and become the resurrected Emperor Palpatine's apprentice. Let's just completely disregard this universally, socially relevant story of a historical figure being intensely deified in the face of serious faults.

“That milking scene was disgusting and pointless.”

If the whole point of that sequence was to disgust, then it wasn't really pointless. The audience is not supposed to be looking at Luke in a positive light, at least not in the beginning of the movie. Personally, I thought Finn drinking the dirty water in VII was much worse, and it baffles me that I even hear this complaint enough that it bears mention.

"Why did Luke just decide to become one with the Force in the end?"

Luke didn't willfully disappear. The strain of projecting himself across the galaxy killed him, which is something that was foreshadowed by Kylo Ren when he was telling Rey how the effort of bridging their minds together would kill her. The film shows that Luke has no way of getting off the island. I’m almost certain that Luke will come back as a force ghost in IX since we were never told Rey's third lesson.

"Mark Hamill has numerous interviews talking down the direction Rian Johnson took the character."

Rian Johnson and Mark Hamill had initial creative differences (something that happens extremely often in this business), ones that Mark clarified were inconsequential to the quality of the finished product, which even George Lucas (who was explicitly hostile towards Disney and vocal about his indifference to "The Force Awakens's" direction) thought was a great movie.

Besides, even if this assertion that he hated the movie was true, why is Mark's opinion the only one that "matters"? What about the other original cast members and creators? It just seems like detractors are going out of their way to reach under the barrel here.

"Why would Luke leave a map behind if he didn't want to be found?"

The films never said that Luke himself left that map for people to find him. That map just revealed the location of Ahch-To, which as Kylo stated in VII was hidden from the Empire's archives. People only assumed that Luke was there because that's where the first Jedi temple was created, and they happened to be right.

"Rey is too good at things, so she is a Mary Sue."

Let's ignore the fact that the operational definition of this term is universally misunderstood in this context...so her getting frozen, captured, and then force slammed against a tree to the point of unconsciousness by Kylo Ren, having trouble taking down a

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I remember watching Star Wars: A New Hope for the first time when I was 5 years old. It had me on the edge of the couch glued to the television screen. I was in love with the show, and I all wanted to do was play Star Wars with my friends and reenact the scenes. The love I have for Star Wars as a franchise has only grown since then. Unlike a significant amount of people who didn’t like the prequels, I did, because it was Star Wars and there was more to learn about it. Now as a 32 year old man; my love for Star Wars has been reignited since the release of The Force Awakens. The first time that I saw the trailer, it sent chills down my spine and I fell in love with it all over again. I absolutely loved the movie and I can say that The Last Jedi was nothing short of that. For those of us that dove into the expanded universe of Star Wars, you know the rule of two. This was a perfect example of that, and Kylo like most Sith apprentices want to kill their master. He was given the opportunity and he took it. Kylo is the perfect antagonist to Rey and I cannot wait to see episode nine. For those of us who are true Star Wars fans, we love that its back and look forward to the release of future stories. The force is limitless, and for those who are complaining about aspects of Leia using the force to float back to the ship, let’s be honest, that’s not the craziest thing you’ve seen a force user do. So, in the end, those of us that are true Star Wars fans, loved the movie and thank Disney for rekindling our love for it. Expand

The Last Jedi is all about letting the past go and what the future will bring. It remarks the difficulty of letting the past die.
It's all about sacrifice and what it's at stake. Rian Johnson once again, amazed me with his directing and his skill to make every character meaningful and rich of qualities.

Widespread critical acclaim was warranted. While the online reviews from fans got bombarded with haters, they don't really reflect how the broad audience felt about this movie. It's phenomenal and the majority of people who watched it agreed - just most can't be bothered to write a review like this.

The people who hated it (and bombarded user review sites) fall into three categories:

#1 - They didn't get it. They don't understand the character of Luke and can't come to grips with the fact this portrayal made perfect sense. They have an idealized idea of who the character was from their childhood and can't understand that the character always was deeply flawed and human.

#2 - They are borderline sexist/racist. No way around it, but the tiny irrelevant pocket of people who hated this movie (the thousands of haters out of 150 million that saw it and loved it) often cite their frustrations with having female leads, an asian character or some perceived political agenda. These people are idiots and can safely be ignored.

#3 - They have just grown out of Star Wars in general. No shame in that. Some of these grown adults nitpick details of this movie without doing the same to the originals. The originals are packed full of plot holes, nonsense, and childish humor - because Star Wars was and has always been a series primarily made for children. The tiny group of people who hated this movie are mainly projecting frustration with the fact their adulthood has robbed them of the sense of wonder that makes this series so delightful and enjoyable for the millions of people who still love it.

Yes this is a different Star Wars movie. "Things are not going to go the way you think" Many of the reviewers on the site are salty that their theories didn't come true, and that Luke was a hermit to begin with and not a Grand Master Jedi that the Expanded Universe originally wrote him as. Although, yes he is that, but that comes before this movie. Before the sequels (Although the flashbacks do help show that) Luke is now ashamed for what happened to Kylo, he feels responsible, and hurt. He feels like he let down Leia and everyone else. He has taken full responsibility for it all, he has gone to the island of the first jedi temple to simply get out of the way and die. But that is until Rey find him, at first yes he is unwilling to teach he, but then he agrees, now I cannot wait to see him return in Episode 9 as a force ghost and see Rey take over, who is the true last jedi, and teach a new generation of Jedi. She has the books, Lukes saber, and she is ready to take the screen and fulfill her destiny. Yes at first glance Snoke is a bit of a waste. Most people salty that he wasn't Bane or the Emperor, but it doesn't really matter who he is, or if he comes back or who he was. Kylo Ren has overpowered his master, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, but Snoke was arrogant, and didn't count on Kylo betraying him. Adam Driver did a fantastic job at portraying this. You think he will turn and help Rey, but he tricks her, and try to turn her. All I can say is this film was fantastic. The funniest thing about this movie is how salty people are that their fanfics didn't come true! Expand

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is easily the best or second best Star Wars film--easy. It manages to give us an amazing story, filled with amazingly well written characters, beautifully crafted scenes, and a score by Williams that will make any person shiver with euphoria. Everything on screen and I mean everything is visually gorgeous and hard to top. The Last Jedi is the darkest film in the Star Wars saga and is filled with jaw dropping moments that will leave you speechless--It certainly left me speechless. Mark Hamill returns as Luke and nails it. Carrie Fisher (God bless her) returns as Leia and nails it. Oscar Issac shines as Poe and gets more character development. Daisy Ridely ad Adam Driver SHINE as they give powerhouse performances here. Andy Serkis is always great when he's on screen. Domhnall Gleeson does great here as well. This is a perfect movie, but there is just one downside to it and that involves John Boyega and newcomer Kelly Tran, playing Finn and Rose. They have a storyline here that doesn't fit all too well for parts of the movie, and at some points feel like an entirely different movie altogether. But it can be easily forgiven as it does give us new looks on the Star Wars Universe, plus LITERALLY EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT IT. The action is incredible, the space battles are star gazing, the lightsaber fights are blazing, and the fights on the ground are blaring. But most of all, this movie tells a story that you will never see coming, not from a mile away. It toys with your expectations, knowing exactly what you are expecting, and the immediately does that and/OR THE EXACT OPPOSITE. Plus, it answers most questions left in The Force Awakens while also leaving oher aspects open. It should also be noted that this movie barely did what The Force Awakens did, as in fan pandering. There's barely a single sign of it here and that goes to show just how passionate the man behind this movie is. Rian Johnson has written and directed the best Star Wars film I have ever seen and it proves why Lucasfilm is giving him free reign on a new trilogy. Rian is a master class filmmaker here and he needs to be recognized for bringing a new story, with hard hitting moments, to life. But most of all, I am excited to see what happens next...Luke was right, "This is not going to go the way you think." I am going to watch it, then watch it again, and again, and again. Thank you, Rian, and thank you, Lucasfilm. And before I go, don't worry Game of Thrones fans, Captain Phasma actually does stuff this time. Cool stuff too. Expand

Я конечно с сомнением отношось к продолжению оконченного сюжета, но если рассматривать этот фильм отдельно от серии, то он очень неплох.Фильм полностью оправдал ожидания (быть может потому, что я много и не ждал).

And it's not particularly close. It's a blast. It's nuanced, challenging, the character development is brilliant, and it turns Star Wars on its head. It upends everything we thought we knew about Luke Skywalker, the intergalactic civil War and the Force itself.

I was AMPED to see it when it came out. I saw it opening night in the theater but was REALLY disappointed when it was over. Just recently I went back and watched it to recap to get ready for Rise of Skywalker. After watching it wit fresh eyes, now I love the movie.

For me, I think the reason I initially didn't enjoy it was that my expectations of what I WANTED or WAS HOPING to see is not what I got to see. The story didn't go the way I wanted or was hoping for it to go, and as a result, there were characters I wanted to find out more about but didn't. I think that was the main thing. ONCE I PUT ASIDE MY OWN BS, I was able to watch this movie and really enjoy it. I think it is a good movie and addition in the SW franchise. I only wrote this review because it's roughly 2 to 1 negative reviews to positive reviews. I am just hoping that you, if you're reading this as a Star Wars fan, might read this, give it another shot, and be able to enjoy more Star Wars.

Brilliant movie that brings new ideas and directions to the saga, not limiting itself to repeating the classic movies.

Honestly it's a complete turn from typical genre film star wars to true art star wars, with a hopeful message and amazing visuals and choreography. Close to a perfect film.

The Force Awakens was an empty movie which could have been so much more. The Last Jedi was basicly Rian giving JJ the finger, that's my feeling about it and i support Rian with his movie. The Last Jedi was a true Star Wars movie, it felt like Star Wars and i felt excitment watching this movie and was really surprised in all the interesting plottwists. It is my favourite Star Wars movie behind The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Rian took some daring chances which not everybody agreed with but i think he's a Great Story teller and made this movie truly Original. I would really love to see a new Star Wars trilogy which Rian Johnson wrote and created. Expand

I see so many fanboys upset that Luke is dark in this film but his humanity is part of what makes this film great, and provides Luke a full character arc. It's also so disappointing that Rise of Skywalker retcon'd Rey's past, as I thought leaving her unlinked to any majoy bloodline made things so much more interesting. THJ set a beautiful table that was unique and special to this new trilogy. Too bad JJ came back to overlay tired overplayed storylines to conclude it in Skywalker. Time will soon judge this film as the best the new trilogy and indeed the saga. Expand

The best Star Wars film since Empire
Rian deconstructs the old to build something new.

Sorry if you didn't like this movie. It was pretty good. Would not be surprised if TROS falls below the ratings for this one in the next few months.

The cinematography was the most eye droppingly beautiful thing I've seen in ages, so gorgeous. You can tell the writer and director believed their audience was intelligent. Expand
