No tiene trasfondo en los personajes, en especial los villanos, como película esta bien, pero como película de star wars esta nefasta. No hay ese misticismo y enseñanzas que nos dejaban las anteriores películas, donde quedo la trama.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well well, the First Order doesn't do anything besides expecting the enemy ship to run out of fuel. You might ask where are the other ships and TIE fighters and why they don't attack the rebels. Yeah, Rian doesn't care.

Kylo Ren can use the force, Rey can move rocks with her mind, but they somehow have to fight 8 guards instead of using their powers against them. You also have a subplot with 2 characters ( Finn / Rose ) that gets another sublot with slaves that gets another subplot with Benicio Del Toro. Everything worthless and could have been cut without changing a damn thing.

Did I say Luke projects himself and his projection actually can touch Leia but can't be touched by Kylo's sword? Continuity? Rian doesn't care. Add in Superleia and a villain that dies for nothing. There are so many things wrong with this movie, that I could keep going for hours.… Expand

Each of the central characters had an arc. I was definitely surprised at several places the film went but it made for a more personal story that actually had something to say which is pretty rare. The whole film looked absolutely gorgeous and I can't wait to see it again.

I think it's really interesting that people seemed to see two different movies. The movie I saw had substance and was dripping with creativity and talent. I have a hard time understanding the negative reviews for the film, but I do not offhandedly reject the notion that some people might not like it.

Kylo Ren and Rey are both fantastic in this movie and it even manages to make a character arc for Luke Skywalker, which while risky I think ultimately pays off in a big way.… Expand

If "Force Awakens" (which I liked) fell too much on the "same" side of the equation, this film falls a bit too much for me on the side of being "different," to the point where it often doesn't feel like a Star Wars movie. But I doubt most of us (myself included) could have done any better if we had somehow been put in charge.

The best Star Wars movies, even in their darkest moments, had an element of hope of them. There was fun and joy in them. This film, from director-writer Rian Johnson, often feels too bleak and cynical to be enjoyed. (It's very much in line with "Looper," another film by Johnson.) So, respectfully, I have to say this movie isn't for me.… Expand

Reviewer1138Dec 18, 2017

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are many reasons this movie deserves a low score, but I will only focus on two: it failed to evoke a sense of wonder and it was offensive.

Star Wars movies have found success despite their many flaws. They have never been Oscar quality films, yet they are wildly successful. I, as a fan, am willing to gloss over and reason away many of the flaws because the movies evoke a sense of wonder that is hard to find in other films. I have always felt like I was in a galaxy far, far away. Luke's journey through that galaxy has always made me feel like there is a greater purpose than this mundane life. Those feelings were expunged with poor comedy that serves as a public announcement, "Hey folks, don't forget, this is a silly fantasy movie and none of this is real." If the characters don't believe they are in a galaxy far, far away, how am I supposed to? Also, when you create a universe, you have to create a set of rules that the characters are bound by. Rian broke existing rules of the universe and introduced farfetched ones like little kids do during games they play with each other.

I found this movie offensive on many levels. I only want to point out one scene though. When Rey hands Luke his old lightsaber, Luke looks at it for a few seconds before chucking it behind him without a thought about where it was going to land. Let me remind you, that this scene was preceded with Rey ascending up a long flight of stairs to find Luke atop this island, implying that Luke is still this hero that others have to ascend to in order to meet eye-to-eye. When she finally handed him his old lightsaber, he behaved as though the lightsaber had no significance to him. I get it, Rian wanted to take the movie in a direction nobody expected. Fine. He didn’t have to do it with both middle fingers extended though. If you don’t understand why this moment is offensive, let me explain. That lightsaber has a lot of history. It was Anakin’s lightsaber that was used as he turned to the dark side. He eventually lost it in a fight with Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan held onto that lightsaber for years while he watched over Luke. Luke, like Rey, has always yearned to know who his father is. Obi-Wan shatters Luke’s understanding of who is father was by telling him Anakin was a Jedi Knight, someone of profound significance. He offers the lightsaber to Luke as proof. This is the first tangible object that we know of that belonged to Luke’s father and is now in Luke’s possession. Luke goes on to fight Darth Vader at Cloud City. He loses his hand and that lightsaber moments before learning that his father is actually the evil man looking right at him. He probably thought he would never see that lightsaber again. After thinking about this history, to say that Luke is not flooded with memories and emotions when he sees that lightsaber is offensive. Him seeing that lightsaber, in contrast to his robotic hand that only exists because his father cut off the real one, should have been a serious and thought-provoking moment for Luke. Making that moment thoughtless trashes all the history that comes with that lightsaber and it trashes everything Luke struggled to become in the previous films. This is why it is offensive. Rian could have easily pivoted the storyline in this scene without being offensive though. For example, he could have had Luke look at the lightsaber for a moment and then look at Rey and something along the lines of, “I cannot take this. I am not this person anymore.” He could give it back to Rey and then walk away. This would at least acknowledge that the lightsaber has significance to Luke and I would be left wondering, “What happened to him? Why has he changed?” which seems to be what Rian was trying to convey anyway.

I gave a score of 1 because there are a few, isolated scenes that I enjoy.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I must respectfully disagree with the fans who are panning this movie. This is a different Star Wars film and isn't that what we've wanted for some time now? This is a gorgeous looking, entertainingly written, very well acted film that takes established characters in new directions I did not expect. The humor is a bit much, and some setups don't get the deserved payoff. I understand how divisive this film is. Honestly though, I think the harsh fan reaction is a gut reaction to unexpected outcomes. I was torn after seeing it the first time. I then thought about the film and while I have issues with it, the fan backlash is absurd. This is a good movie and for once, I'm with the critics on this.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This should have been called the "coward Luke" episode. He is now a coward for not trying to help Kylo stay in the light (instead contemplating killing him), then he cowards out of killing him, cowards out of chasing him down and getting some of his students back, then cowards out to a planet to hide, tries his best NOT to teach Rey the force to deal with a problem he helped create, then when he does face Kylo, it is in the form of a hologram, in which, he dies anyways?

Why are Jedi so prone to "suicide by sith"??

Johnson absolutely RUINED his character. Now everytime I watch the classics, I will always be reminded of how pathetic he turned out. I was aggravated with how TFA raised so many questions, but then this movie completely ignores all of the mystery the previous movie created and gives trash answers to some of these questions (Rey's parents were drunk scrappers?? come on, that could have been revealed in TFA).

If the Rear Admiral was going to stay with the ship until it was destroyed, why not hyper-drive it into snoke's ship right away? why not use all of the other ships running out of fuel, like this instead? This movie was just busywork for the audience,and Johnson managed to ruin the legacy of the original characters in the process. A slow motion chase scene is really the plot???? The rebellion will be reborn with a handful of people left on the Millinium F at the end?

BTW, as much as we now know about space and how liquids in the body become vapor when exposed to space, Leia somehow wakes up and floats herself to recovery? GTFOH

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was not a fan of Force Awakens due to the fact that I thought it was primarily an uninspired rehash of past movies, and had little to no focus on exposition or dialogue. I will acknowledge that this movie burned down every major plot point set up to be explored by the first movie, but I for one was greatly relieved by that fact. I'm so sick of tropes revolving around missing parents and an emperor figure pulling the strings that I was personally glad when they jettisoned those plot points in favor of something new. td;dr, IMO if you disliked VII like I did, you'll probably like this one, and vice versa.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Only the dudebros or the uneducated don't get this movie. It is a nuanced, intelligent film that has gone over the heads of, at this time of writing, 1,333 metacritic users. The complaints that the film is geared toward getting a broader audience demographic is sheer sexist nonsense from those who don't want to see women in power. The issues people have with Luke not coming out of retirement to laser-sword Snoke, Ben Solo, and the rest of the first order is a bunch of kids being butthurt that their fantasies haven't been fulfilled. They would set aside all of Luke's history - has lack of training, his stubbornness, his defeatism - and turn him into a powerhouse Jedi saviour. Well folks, it doesn't work that way. This movie captured his flaws perfectly and developed a reasonable outcome from those issues.

Anytime this film gets into serious star wars territory it seems to stop itself with the equivelant of a momma joke. The jokes would be more at home on a late night talk show than a Star Wars movie. The is some solid acting, but a lot of films do some things right. So what? This is Star Wars we expect more. This is a prime of example of Hollywood pandoring to the audience. It was trying to please people rather than create an artistic and entertaining movie. There are parts that are clearly scrapes for the true fans, but amount to no more than nostalgic nonsense. This makes for a tonally imbalanced film. Jumping from serious to goofy. It tries to attract demographics rather than just people. Aside from tone, half the plot is worthless and wouldnt be out of place in the prequels. There is little character development that is riddled with plot holes. Some of these problems are simply a hangover from TFA such as Rey's abilities, but majority are new. Stars Wars fans wanted was a continuation of the OT, but what we got was terrible characters with disjointed development if any. The problems began in TFA and continue throughout this movie. Disney thought they could buy us off with a few scenes of nostalgic imagery, but even those were usually ruined by an out of place goof. I could go on and on with why this is an aweful movie, but this will suffice. This is not Star Wars. This is corporate Star Wars.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I loved every moment of The Last Jedi. As a long time SW fan, I was hoping to be shocked by the unexpected, and I truly was. The plot is relatively simply: The remnants of the Resistance are seeking to escape The New Order and Rey is searching to be trained as a Jedi. Both have conflict, with TNO being able to track the resistance, who are running low on fuel, and Luke Skywalker being a broken shell of the hero we once loved. All characters, both friend and foe go through transformations. It was especially fun to not be able to guess what was going to happen from one scene to the next.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Napoleon Dynamite makes a great villain. I love preachy, condescending social justice themes in my sci fi (whether I agree with them or not). You really don’t have enough girl power in this movie - More cowbell! Laura Dern’s character is such a pivotal historical figure in the series and deserved such a large climatic role unlike Admiral Akbar who you rightfully unceremoniously killed off and literally gave his seat to someone no one cared about. I love how you developed a new character - Rose but completely ignored any development of prior main characters. I love how righteous and powerful every female character is in the movie and all male characters are impulsive and/or bumbling broken idiots. More cowbell!

Seriously you could have saved this movie if you put any of the franchise actor in the Laura Dern role. What is her name again? Admiral Mary Sue?… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really wanted to like this film, it had great moments with amazing special effects BUT with that said there is serious issues with the storyline. Let's start with Yoda, I love Yoda but why is he "old" and barely moving around when Anakin was made young again at the end of Ep6. Also he's solid not a ghost. Why was Admiral Akbar killed off with no fanfare and who the hell is the second in command with Leia? Why should I care about here???
Speaking of caring, what's up with Finn & Rose and their pointless adventure that was painstakingly slow. Not a fan of Rose's acting ability just not good...
I'll end with Luke's ending (but I could go on). For a powerful Jedi, they never let him go full Jedi. I mean when he faced off against Emo, sorry I mean Kylo, I was so ready for him to raise arms and knock down AT-AT's like dominos, I have played games with Jedi's who brought down Star Destroyers. Hologram Luke was a fail!… Expand

The movie is a garbage. Kylo says that "let the past die, kill it if you have to". In fact Disney wants to do that. Do they have to? Not really, the story does not wish that, but business does.

I've seen every Star Wars since 1977 at the cinema. Multiple times. This one? I'll see it one more time, at IMAX and then wait for the Bluray release. It was a true popcorn sci fi movie, humorous comments, wicked action and some brutal fights, especially the one between Rey , Ren and the imperial guards.

I can appreciate why a lot of folks wouldn't like this film, and also why a lot of people would like it. The only thing that left me cold was...

The fact that Luke Skywalker was poorly realised, under implemented and his character ultimately wasted. Once he saw Reys potential, he bucked up his ideas and started training her. All good. BUT...when Rey handed him his fathers light sabre, he instantly threw it away. THIS TOTALLY WOULD NOT HAPPEN.

Then there was the final act. An example of Lukes awesome control of the force, but once completed.....

He simply " lets go " of his mortal existence and fades into the force. What a complete waste. It struck me at first that Luke had willingly allowed this to happen and that he had committed suicide. A few hours later, a line Kylo came out with earlier in the film came to mind, when he first communicated with Rey within the force, he says something like " How are you doing this? This should be tearing you apart". This comment implies that force projection is very hard and very dangerous to do, and I see now, why that line was included . But it still doesn't make me feel better that Luke has been written out of the Star Wars saga. First we lose Han and now Luke in the films, and of course Carrie in real life. A real shame. I would have rather seen each character say their goodbyes and ride off into the sunset myself, but no, the new star wars movies have killed them. A real shame...

But....I'll still go see this again, there's enough good stuff in the film to almost counter balance the films other events, but the Canto Bight scenes were a tad pointless and drawn out, the whole lot could have been done in a five minute heist scene in my opinion.

So, there you go. I'm going again, and I'll buy it on Bluray, but the loss of Luke will sting forever. As it does with Han.

Any Star Wars fan could have come up with satisfying answers for these questions that also kept mass audiences entertained and kept the money flowing in.

I know Lucas made mistakes but this poorly told story goes out of its way to undermine everything special George created. Shame on Johnson, the story group and whoever did not stop this slop from getting on the screen. The lack of SW feel, sincerity, and genuine characters is disturbing. Then there is the inability to give quality answers to the questions posed in its predecessor. It seems that there was never a story plan at all and this is just action set pieces to wow the audience. That garbage might work with Transformers fans but this is SW. For most of us, George Lucas taught us to appreciate story and the heroes journey, that Joseph Campbell preached into relevancy. SW fans are not stupid and should not be treated that way. This is how i felt leaving the theater.

I am not entertained or amused by milking alien creatures, characters acting out of character, and subplot characters who have no relevancy on the universe. When you see the movie you will know my meaning I am also not interested in shirtless bad guys or thin plot points with flat back door answers. The worst crime this movie commits is a blatant slap in Lucas's face by denouncing the very essence of the Force. Treating our prior characters like morons and completely missing the points that the prequels established. Ep's 1-3 may have faults but they did explain the universe. George is a smart storyteller and this movie obviously wants nothing to do with his theories. It's shameful and disturbing. I feel there is no way to save the third installment of this trash, so it must play out. But a house cleaning should be done immediately and a person who loves and knows SW should be put in charge of story development. There have been many aside from Lucas who get it over the years: Zahn, Filoni, and whoever should be complimented on Rogue One. This atrocity should not go unnoticed and if you are a fan who bashed the prequels you should be even more enraged than Anakin cutting pears with the force. This Last Jedi should be the LAST bad SW movie.… Expand

The potential of old and new characters, all to waste.. No epic Jedi training, No epic High Master Jedi Luke action (oh right we saw him milking a space cow,also we see a terrible astral projection "fight" with Kylo that brings him to death...JESUS) , terrible villain character progress(Kylo ren,no one feels scared,threatened or feared at all).. Failed attempts of humor and the usuall recycled motives and space scenes. A lot of scenes like Fin's where boring and others where totally out of star wars tone. So the result is: 1)The epic old characters are gone without grace and also without even been "used" propperly 2) The new ones are boring and hollow, some of them are gone as well allready, like Supreme leader Snoke (what a joke) 3)Forget the Jedi/Sith theme 4)There are new creatures like Porgs, so Disney can become even richer from toys to keep paying the critics and butchering every epic/historic franchise along the way..

But there are somethings in this movie that just blow me away. If you don't understand what Disney is trying to do with Star Wars then you will not get this movie. Carrie fisher dyeing is exactly why Disney is doing what they are doing. Killing off Han and kind of Killing off Luke is the point. These guys are old they cant and probably dont want to do these movies. Star wars is not easy. Even Daisy Ridley sounds like she does not want to do them. Star Wars Fans are crazy and probably annoying. We make it rough on these actors. I didn't like flying Leia and maybe a little too much comedy maybe. I say maybe because I did laugh at some things. I dont like the fact the they did two David and Goliath parts in this movie. I mean the Rebals have now destroyed Starkiller base, A Dreadnought and now Snokes big ass ship. Enough with this crap. To be honest If I could just watch the Jedi Sith stuff This movie would be a perfect score. The interactions between Luke and Rey, Then Rey and Kylo then Kylo, rey and Snoke. Then Kylo and Luke were just perfect. And "Yoda knocking some sense into Luke was awesome.

There was all-around bad writing in this flick, and most characters became more boring, somehow being undeveloped as the film went on. The acting was phenomenal, but the writing and directing was terrible. I get that Luke needs to pass on the baton, but have him do it in a better way, with valor and bravery, not wasting away on an island. This was just subpar in almost every way. I can't fathom what would make anyone enjoy this film. Rian Johnson's attempts to "getcha" and pull the rug out from under you by being subversive in his plot points only succeeded in making an awful movie with no real development or satisfying world building.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had to create an account just to review this movie. I really wanted to like this movie. I loved both The Force Awakens and Rogue One, but The Last Jedi (more like the Last Jest) left me more disappointed and upset leaving the theater than any other movie. This film is a MESS that is full of plot holes, a poor script and colossal failures. It does have some good moments but they are too few and far between the bad. How this film is being universally praised by critics is beyond my comprehension.

Within the first 5 minutes of watching this film I had a bad feeling about it. Starting with the prank phone call between Poe and General Hux. This moment was what really set the tone of the movie for me, not in a good way. This is a scene with tension and stakes, but it's ruined with tedious humor and one liners. This is one of the major issues the film is plagued with. There is simply too much cheesy humor peppered into many scenes throughout the movie. Every time something emotional happens its cut off with a throwaway joke. It's overkill. I understand Star Wars is supposed to have moments of levity and humor, the original films had many moments of humor. The only difference is that it was subtler and allowed the film to breath in between these moments. The film doesn't need “DID YOU GET THE JOKE, DID YOU GET IT?” type of humor. Emotional scenes had impact, they weren’t the butt end of a joke. Another issue I had was next to nothing is answered from the Force Awakens. What’s Luke been doing for the last 30+ years? Who are the Knights of Ren? Who is Snoke? Who are Reys parents? How did the First Order Rise to power? Why ask these questions at all in Ep. 7 only to throw everything out? What is the payoff for the final scene in the Force Awakens? Not a thing. Just Luke casually throwing his old blue light saber over his shoulder like it meant nothing at all.

The plot is a disaster. The major premise of this film is a chase between the First Order and the Resistance, which lasts almost 2 hrs. Apparently, spacecraft can manage light speed travel, but are still dependent on a consumable fuel source? This was never an issue an any previous installment. You’re telling me that the First Order in no way could catch up to the rebel fleet? Their ships were much larger, powerful and they had more small craft at their disposal. Abysmal writing if you ask me. Disney has all of the money and resources at their disposal and this is the best they could come up with? This reads like Spaceballs more than Star Wars.

So, we are left with a heavily flawed film that literally goes nowhere. The pacing was off as the film zig-zagged from scene to scene so often I felt it was made for the ADHD generation. It introduces useless new characters (Rose, DJ, Holdo), gives little screen time to fan favorites (R2, Chewbacca) or just outright butchers them (Luke, Leia). Rian Johnson wastes any potential from previous installments and leaves J.J. Abrams to clean up the mess.

The only redeeming qualities this film has are the visuals, the score and some of the performances. I did enjoy the scenes between Luke, Rey and Kylo. I felt the film should have focused more on these relationships.

Other dislikes:
- Luke milks a Cow-Giraffe Alien and drinks the milk like a caveman in front of Rey.

- Luke doesn’t really train Rey at all. She seems to grasp every aspect of being a Jedi on her own. Her scene investigating the cavern within the dark side hole with the mirror was pointless and went nowhere.

- Leia becomes master of the force in space and becomes… Superleia?

- The entire section with Finn and Rose on Cano Bight was a pointless subplot that never goes anywhere. The filmmaker’s care more about having scenes riding giant donkey rabbits than developing previously established characters and plot lines.

- Phasma is wasted in 5 minutes.

- Snoke, apparently the main villain, is pathetic. We learn nothing about who he is or what his motivations are. Somehow, he is the all powerful dark side master but can’t foresee what’s happening. Even with Kylo manipulating a light saber inches away from him.We learn nothing, he just dies halfway through.

- The character of Luke Skywalker is butchered. That’s all I’ll say on this.… Expand

Instead of 18 hr space chase, (dumb), Leia surviving the explosion into space (more dumb considering they know Carrie Fisher died) the Resistance gets to Crete where they fight against the FO, think WWI Battle of Argonne forest, or the Spartans in 300. They are decimated. Finn dies in that scene saving the Resistance by flying his cruiser into the battering ram making the ultimate sacrifice. Luke arrives on Crete, leaving after feeling Leia succumb to her injuries in search of Rey who left Ahch-To prematurely to confront Kylo. There Luke connects with DJ who sneaks him and Rose onto the Supremacy to confront Snoke who’s holding Rey hostage and Luke dies fighting Snoke and Kylo in the throne room not before taking out all the guards and saving Rey who escaped with Rose and DJ. Snoke barely survives, Kylo is visited by force ghost Anakin during the climactic scene of Luke’s death. The End. How **** hard would it be to give fans a glorious death. Something to look forward to in Episode 9. “Nah”, says Johnson, “I think I’ll just f@ck the whole Star Wars universe up because my corporate overlords at Disney can’t market anymore toys and **** off the old cast. That’s what we’ll do.” They want you to think that so we build all the hype like we did for Episode VIII all over again. They (Disney) don’t even have to spend a penny marketing. Bloody Brilliant! Hopeful in-denial fans will create fantastic theories all over again just to get **** slapped in the face like we did in this c@nt of a film!… Expand

I could go on ranting about nearly every aspect of this bad movie in detail, but I want to spare myself from reliving to much of this awful experience. I guess after a mediocore Episode VII I will have to accept that Disney isnt capable of capturing the essence of what made Star Wars fun.

It tries to destroy tradition and mythology in a very cynical way and thats why I think many people feel trolled by this movie.

Despite being a bit long (150 minutes), Rian Johson delivered one of the most epic episodes of the saga. He managed to make a somewhat kid-friendly film but appealing to young and adult audiences. Lots of questions are still open to the IX episode.

Probably not, but it does at least match 'The Empire Strikes Back'. I do feel I'll need to see it again to take everything in and not watch it while tired, but overall I left the screen quite pleased. Rian Johnson creates a strong and unique work, and while I can see some things annoying some fans but the movie takes bold steps and it mostly works. As far as cast goes, everyone is quite strong. Adam Driver really gets to come into his own as Kylo Ren and Daisy Ridley seems more comfortable as Rey and has some struggles to overcome this time around and it makes her a more compelling hero. Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher are the best version of Luke and Leia that they've ever been, strong characters worn down by years of struggles, fighting and loss. Oscar Isaac deserves a particular shout out, his Poe Dameron becomes an essential but reluctant leader and he shines as the naive trigger happy star pilot who needs to learn about making the tough call and you can see they realise how he was wasted in 'The Force Awakens'. I won't start stating what I disliked as it may run into spoiler territory and that'd be unfair on anyone who hasn't seen this film yet, but it's more that there was a number of small issues that added up to be annoying rather than one big thing and in the grand scheme of the film, it still comes out looking pretty good.… Expand

I've a feeling I just watched a really long commercial for Battlefront 2 andSloppy would be my one-word summary. Honestly unsure what film the critics were watching; not the one I saw, apparently. So much effort to show so little happening. I've a feeling I just watched a really long commercial for Battlefront 2 and Disney's only real regret is that they couldn't find a way to charge me halfway through the movie.

Plot development? Virtually none. Plot holes? Many. Character development: Well, Rey did some interesting hiking with Luke, at least. Massive barely-strung-together visual spectacles: Plenty. Some people died along the way, but they got about 30 seconds screen time, so it was hard to tell who they were. I feel sorry for the actors and actresses as they clearly gave their all and in several cases produced stellar performances, but the director and editor threw their hard work into a trash can of mediocrity.

Little in the way of internal consistency, hand-waved deus-ex-machina, topped by practically no explanation - this apparently is what Star Wars is today. Remember how in Empire Strikes Back, the Rebels and the Empire both seemed like functioning militaries with legitimate technology (albeit with different scales of equipment)? Apparently decades later both sides are completely and utterly incompetent. Remember how we had loads of questions in The Force Awakens? Prepare to have none of them answered, along with key characters getting bridges dropped on them to avoid having to answer some of those awkward questions. The posturing men-children of the First Order (complete with orange hair) are back to make us cringe again, and the commanding women of the Rebellion are back to tell us to keep calm and trust them without any explanation whatsoever. This seems oddly familiar ground... The heroes and villains are done huge disservices by being shoehorned into outcomes that make no sense. Sprinkle some forced humour and a couple of bits of Force 'magic' that trample all that made the original films great, and that about wraps it up.

The excellent showing by Hamill and Ridley as retired Jedi master and aspiring Jedi trainee is intermixed with set piece silliness after set piece silliness in the wider movie. Almost every aspect of the battles make no sense and are just there to provide convenient holes for the paper-thin plot to run into. As an aside, Rogue One did a far better job here; the combat in that movie seemed seriously grounded compared to this outing. From hundreds of stormtroopers vanishing to scenes that go nowhere (I honestly lost track of the number of times the film introduced concepts & characters then promptly forgot about them) to strange attention-seeking moments where the film pauses as if to say 'here, we're making a point here' - the pacing and editing are remarkably poor.

Throw in a good bit of political commentary, because where would Hollywood be without lecturing us poor plebeians, and really, I found TLJ thoroughly disappointing. Fun if you have a short attention span and want to go 'oohh ahh' at all the pretty stuff, but the central and fairly cerebral theme of Star Wars that Lucas built, of Light and Dark and the points of view between, appears to have been force-pushed out the nearest airlock.… Expand

Forget the charm of the original trilogy: the Last Jedi follows the MARVEL flick formula of throwing in supposedly funny jokes and gags every 5-10 scenes. There's a lot of techno-babble filler talking, a lot of poorly developed characters you won't care about, a lot of bad BAD dialogue in general. I don't like it, to say the least. In fact, after they're done with this, I fully expect a reboot (just as awful).… Expand

The main problem for me however is not that it sucks at being a good movie. The way this production attacks everything we know and love about Star Wars, the disrespect, the impudence... Simply unbearable. The Last Jedi literally mocks with the previous films and with the audience who were expecting answers regarding some unanswered questions that arised in Ep.7. Disney and producers first create those questions, make the audience wonder about them, discuss them for 2 years and then WHAM! Now they are the most unimportant issue in the whole universe. Not even worth talking about in the movie. Not even worth to shoot a scene just to provide some depth and answers. Why? Oh right, to create surprise and excitement! The final point I'll be making is about what Star Wars is and is not.
Star Wars is NOT just a simple series of films. There are hundreds of books which cover a time span of millions of years in this created SW universe. SW has a lore. SW has a tone. It has some rules even though they are not written. And whoever tries to create a literature / game / film etc. in this universe has to respect them.

Disney erased the whole canon when they bought the franchise, leaving only some of the animation series and the first 6 films intact. I thought they were going to create their own version of the past and future of the saga. I thought they were simply trying to make some room for themselves to maneuver in. Now I see that they never respected any of it otherwise they would not ask us to "burn the past".

I will not go and watch the SW ep.9 in the theater; neither will I watch any Disney movie in theaters and I will never watch a movie of this terrible director Johnson, Jameson whatnot unless the Disney board comes up with an official apology.… Expand

SomebodynobodyDec 18, 2017

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. UnfortunatelThe logic of the universe is not true to itself. Im going to list a couple of things that annoyed me:
-How come the other stardestroyers don't fire at the fleeing rebel fleet at all, they seem utterly useless. The first order looks like a bunch of amateuers just flying behind the rebels, waiting for their fuel to finish. Strategy is obsolete.
-projectiles/lasers fly ballistically in space when shooting the transporters. Theres not even a star or an anomaly that affects the shot gravitationally.
-Rey can resist the lightsaber force pull as well as Kylo? She hasn't trained and she's still new to the force. Kylo is a well trained Sith that can even freeze people and blasters in time. -can apparently forcelift bigtime. Without any training, she's able to do something even Luke with Yoda as his trainer wasn't able to do initially. All he lifted was R2D2 and a rock in E5. -can apparently shoot down tie fighters in the millennium falcon better than Han Solo and Luke Skywalker together, even though it was Han's ship and despite him being one of the best gunslingers and roguepilots in the galaxy. (they had trouble getting rid of a couple of tie fighters in E4, whereas Rey singlehandedly just shoots down a bunch of them)
- She fights several guardians of Snoke, that even the unhurt and much better trained Kylo had trouble defeating.
This is exactly what I mean when a genre is not true to itself.
- Finn is almost completely useless to the main plot. His plans didn't succeed, he's a running coward that only when he almost managed to clear his bad honor got spared by his chubby asian friend. -How come the two of them survived the exploding/burning hangar, while everything in there was dead.
-force using Leia is about the worst I've seen in the movie. Everyone that is slightly force sensitive can apparently master it. Even the kid with its broom at the end. Even Anakin Skywalker wasn't able to do this under much more intense pod racing situations.
-Everyone that feels the force is apparently able to talk to each other. Leia, Kylo, Rey, Luke, Yoda. How come they never used that skill during the clonewars or during similar intense situations? All Luke and Vader were able to do was noticing their presence. But not across half the galaxy.
-What happened to yoda? Did he show Luke how to do it? It wasn't explained. Obviously Luke found a way to materialize a mental clone engaging in a Lightsaber fight halfway across the galaxy-spending all his energy and dying.
-Most unexplained and ridiculous of all was the destruction of Snokes main ship. How come a simple command ship of the rebels can just hyperspace charge at another ship, destroying half of the fleet? Isn't that what shields are made for? How come it hasn't come to anybody's mind doing the same trick before? It seems awfully effective.
-One fighter can take out almost all the turrets on a superstardestroyer? How come he could sneak through the shields or he could even get that close? How come the other stardestroyers didn't jump in or attack the rebels commando ship?
-AtAts didn't really fire at all. Just watching the scene with Luke a couple of minutes later, they could've easily spent that firepower either on the gliders or on the trenches. Useless.
-Killing Snoke seemed awkwardly easy
-Why is there so much focus on the Porgs? Its a new designed Alien that everyone apparently things as cute. But measured by the amount and factor of appearance, not contributing anything useful to the story, they are just useless. Even Ewoks or JarJar had more to contribute to the plot. One can definitely see that they have been designed for one purpose - to raise merchandise.
- Countless "funny" jokes kill the atmosphere. After all, it is Star Wars, not Marvel. Marvel lives of that comedy. Star Wars had a macho rogue smuggler that was acted by Harrison Ford. Of course he makes some fun macho quotes. But not everybody. All the time. Facing death. Not even sarcastic but stupid. Completely killed the atmosphere for me there Disney.

It feels like thrown into some ADHD kids mind. Super short mainplot with a couple of useless sideplots, action ALL the time to not get bored by story. Star Wars used to live a bit of intergalactic politics as well. And even if Disney hasn't really adapted the expanded universe, has much to offer. And potential. Not anymore.
Couldn't care less if Finn or Rey or Leia or Poe died the next movie. Its about time. The true hero in this movie with at least a little bit of character depth is Kylo Ren. Critics just gave this movie a good rating because they wanted to be invited to the next premiere.For now, Episode 8 not only made Episode 7 look bad again -as there doesn't seem a big idea where the Star Wars universe is supposed to go-, it almost killed Star Wars. At least for me. And I'm hooked since the first minute. It's an action movie with some lightsabers and some forcesensitive people. But no real Star Wars… Expand
