Lazily exposited 'moral of the day' a la every Disney movie ever. It trades in anticlimax as though that is cleverer than climax; in actuality it's just less satisfying.

New characters are largely bland and uninteresting, with performances worse than in the previous film. Mark Hamill puts in a good shift with a highly questionable storyline. John Williams puts out, unfortunately, his most uninspired score yet, with literally no new pieces worthy of listening to. Certainly closer to the prequels than the OT.… Expand

Heartbreaking to see Disney ruin Star Wars especially the character of Luke Skywalker. On par with the Phantom Menace. Movie was too drawn out and all over the place. Unnecessary plot lines and very little substance.

A space opera that is singularly the worst drivel to ever be used as a continuation of an epic story like Star Wars. The need to place emphasis on characters that have NO background or proper story arc is beyond comprehension. Yes the midichlorians from Episode 1 are a joke but what has been done to the gaping plot holes in the last two films (not including Rogue One) is a travesty. Snoke? Dead...no explanation as to who or what he was. Luke? A broken shell of a man who never redeems himself (in terms of the character). Kylo and Rey? WHO CARES...... Thanks disney youve destroyed my childhood. I saw a copy of Episode 4 in a store the other day and got a stomach ache.... Look what you've done...… Expand

Movie reviewers are becoming completely out of touch with audiences. Last Jedi feels like when the MTV Movie Awards used to parody scenes from popular movies. General Hux getting a crank call on the bridge, Luke throwing away the light saberMovie reviewers are becoming completely out of touch with audiences. Last Jedi feels like when the MTV Movie Awards used to parody scenes from popular movies. General Hux getting a crank call on the bridge, Luke throwing away the light saber like trash, then going to milk a sea creature's nipple, Leia flying through space and making fun of her hair style. This isn't supposed to be a throwaway Marvel movie with lots of cheap laughs. Doing so undermines the evil of the villains and makes light of the seriousness of the themes of the movie. The characterizations of Luke and Leia feel false. After watching 5 of her planets blown up, finding out the First Order corrupted her son to kill his father and watching her friends including Ackbar blown into space, the Leia of the original trilogy would be lightspeed ramming Snoke's ship herself not sending a subordinate to do it. Luke would never attempt to kill his sister's son while he was sleeping, run away to an island to die alone, ignore his sister's call to join the fight, and then refuse to show up in person to protect her like a damn coward. Whomever wrote this movie didn't understand the characters and didn't care about disgracing them in their last scenes.

The movie lacks any continuity from the Force Awakens even though they take place moments apart. Why was a map left to find Luke, why is the Resistance completely wiped out, why didn't Hux return to Snoke, how is Finn and his jacket okay when he just had his spine sliced by Kylo Ren? Plot ideas and interesting characters that Force Awakens created are abandoned with total disinterest (Snoke, Knights of Ren, Phasma). The 3 new hero characters are robbed of major hero moments and are isolated the whole movie. The movie wastes our time with 2 secondary plots that accomplish nothing other than a very cool explosion and a long prequel-esque escapade to a Casino planet. A good story teller would've at least had Leia pilot that ship into Snoke like a mofo and time it so the explosion stuns Snoke, saves Rey, giving Kylo the opportunity to kill Snoke. The way they wrote this movie both the good and bad guys looked weak and stupid when both should be impressive. Finn and Rey's competence in combat against much more experienced fighters remains an ongoing mystery that might just be a result of awful storytelling.

The movie is not original either. The entire Rey story is stolen from ESB. She travels alone to a distant plant to meet a strange reclusive Jedi Master for training, while there she discovers an ominous cave that will hint the truth about who she is before disobeying the Jedi Master and confronting an enemy that reveals who her parents are (Dagobah = Ach-To). That is the main plot of ESB beat for beat. Meanwhile the rebels bunkered-in fight AT-AT's on a salt/snow planet that they must retreat for their lives (Crait=Hoth). While visiting a corrupt wealthy planet the good guys meet a shady character they ask for help but he betrays them (Canto Bight=Cloud City). Do not tell me Last Jedi is any more original than Force Awakens.… 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!
/sarcasm

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. The original Star Wars movies were about victorious hope, the unity that binds us all and overcoming the evil within yourself.Luke Skywalker is the embodiment of a character archetype that is old as storytelling itself.He rises from nothing, pursues knowledge and enlightenment, overcomes despair, becomes a savior and through courage and determination redeems the sins of the ones who came before him.His purpose as a character and as an icon is to personify everything a human should hope to become.
In The Last Jedi, Luke Skywalker tries to murder a child in his sleep, then cries for a few years in a cave while the world around him crumbles, then gets lectured by a teenager about responsibility, then dies nonsensically.Knowing that, go look at every plot point and twist in this movie.The film's sole purpose isn't to push things forward or build upon anything. It's reckless subversion for the sake of subversion.It's deconstruction with no meaning or purpose.It's a cynically assembled soapbox, made by people so arrogant and unappreciative that they would stand atop the legacy of one of film's most quintessential tales just to make an uninsightful, short-sighted point about "leaving the past behind" and toss in some hamfisted political notes at the captive audience.It's worse than any corporate cash-in or any moronic prequels. The Last Jedi is an articulate attack on Star Wars itself and everything it represents.These people had no idea what they were dealing with, The Last Jedi is cinematic manslaughter.
If you enjoyed The Last Jedi, you do not care about Star Wars.You don't care about the transcending, timeless power of stories and myths and archetypes. You're just a dog who drools when the bell rings.Star Wars OT and Luke Skywalker can't be tarnished by anyone, but The Last Jedi tried.… 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.
Generally it doesnt at all feel like a Star Wars movie, and you shouldnt waste your money on going to the cinema seeing this movie.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After Rian Johnson’s dumpster fire of a f@cking movie, Who gives a f@ck! I’ll fix it. 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

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. George Lucas has his revenge now that Rian Johnson has made the worst Star Wars film of all time.

After the prequels were completed, George Lucas refused to make another Star Wars film. The fans were upset about the CG in the film and upset that George Lucas felt that Jar Jar Binks was a great character - the fans thought Jar Jar was annoying. After seeing The Last Jedi, however, I only have one thing to say, “George Lucas, you are forgiven.” It is only fitting that George Lucas has his revenge and make his hero’s journey triumphant to Star Wars and that the fans are more upset with Rian Johnson who was given almost full artistic control of the script mess that is The Last Jedi.

After viewing The Last Jedi I felt like quoting Ben Kenobi, “I sensed as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.” It's also as if a fandom was upset, if only slightly because it is the greatest franchise in history, and it seemed like the script was written by a man who is not a Star Wars fan.

The script is what I feel to be the biggest problem with the film. The character ‘modification’ of Luke, everyone’s favorite Jedi is unnecessary to advance the plot. In this ‘exciting’ script, Luke goes against the Jedi way and apparently tries to kill Leia’s defenseless child and later is reduced to a weak old geezer who’s daily chore is to milk an alien space cow for greenish milk so that he could drink it in a glamorous way like the Got Milk commercials so that the audience would think its ‘funny’. Let me tell you something Rian, having the greatest Jedi of all time drink green milk in a glamorous way is not ’funny’ lol. Actually, I’m laughing that it will probably be the highlight of the film and should have been in the trailer, but I do find this lack of character continuity disturbing. Another problem is that Chewy is a morbid porg killer which also seems unnecessary to advance the plot and out of character, eating the cute pets that live in the Millenium Falcon. All of these story elements just don’t seem very Disney, tho they bought the Star Wars Franchise and they do have the right to totally mess up Star Wars if they desire, which I am sure is their complete diabolical vision for Star Wars. Perhaps most interesting of my theatre experience of watching The Last Jedi wasn’t on screen, but it was something I’ve never seen before. A man was on his cell phone the entire time in the theatre and nobody said anything. He left halfway thru but then came back for some reason just to surf on his cellphone during the movie. Its as if he didn’t want to leave but also didn’t want to partially miss the movie while looking up from his cellphone every 15 minutes. I am surprised no one said anything to him about his cell phone during the film but now I empathize with him and I’m sure the whole audience understands now what he understood then. This film is an entire snooze-fest.… Expand

Mark has repeatedly tried to warn the fans during the filming and that should bring him this small-minded revenge. Anyway, the child has managed one thing.

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

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Very disappointed after watching this movie which I expected dearly since I grew up in the 80’s with Star Wars. Many are saying it’s a new beginning and some others are saying it’s fresh air for the saga. I wish that were the case. I did not want Rian Johnson to repeat the easy JJ formula or just give fan service but he destroyed a beloved character and made a movie which script is lazy and not worthy of the saga.

Spoilers

I’ll only focus on how he destroyed Luke Skywalker who was for many of us a hero à la Superman.

That image of him about to strike Ben Solo in his sleep because he felt the dark side in him. That’s not Luke! That cannot be Luke because Luke already proved in the original trilogy he’s a much better Jedi than his ancestors.

It’s true that when the Jedi sensed the dark side, they thought about getting rid of its carrier. When Mace Windu confronted Palpatine, he thought it was best to strike him down and get rid of the menace. The same thing happened when Yoda and Obi Wan discovered they had no other choice but to confront (kill) Anakin and the Emperor. Needless to say, those killing instincts did not achieve anything.

But then, in the original trilogy we’re introduced to this farm boy named Luke. And we fell in love with his character and his growth and development over the trilogy. After the great revelation where he discovers Darth Vader is his father, he confronts Yoda and Obi Wan for not telling him and when the latter tells him he MUST face him again (obviously to kill him) and says he’s more machine than human, Luke says “I CANNOT KILL MY OWN FATHER” and when he does face Vader, after being tempted by the dark side and trying to protect his beloved twin sister, Luke is about to kill him but stops himself from doing it. He turns off his lightsaber and says he’ll never join the dark side.

And now this director (who claims being a fan) comes and envisions a Luke who was thinking about killing the son of his beloved sister and his best friend?

Shame on him and what a way to destroy the Skywalker saga!

You’re allowed to like it but hopefully you’ll be able to see why many of us DON’T.… Expand

I know understand why Mark Hamill said he fundamentally disagrees with everything Rian Johnson (the director) has done to the character and I think it is an understatement.
(2) The movie is spammed by over commercialized stupid humor. What might work in Marvel movies (of which i like most) has no place in Star Wars.
(3) The story doesn't close any loose ends but creates even more.
(4) The movie often shocks for the sake of shoking instead of going along with the story.
(5) Star Wars was always conceived to be based on a steoretypical hero-saga and as a optimistic movie to teach moral ideals. This is simply not the case anymore it is littered with postmodern nihilism.
(6) The Soundtrack is still John Williams, but we certainly know better from the Maestro.
(7) The story is written in a way as to devalue and annihilate everything the protagonists of the first 6 movies have fought for. Like Disney would want to make people forget that there were even SW movies pre-Disney.
(8) Disney/Kathleen Kennedy/LucasFilm promised for the last 3years that the whole point of rebooting the Canon (except for the 6 movies) is to make them more coherent which is a blatant LIE after this movie.
(9)The acting was professional and the actors were really in their roles, too sad it was wasted on such a movie.
(10) The movie has a few bigger plotholes, atleast one of them big enough to change the outcome of the complete movie during the first 20 minutes (hard to describe without spoilers) - and a smaller one regarding the geopoltical situation for example

Episode 9 would have to put so many things right and retcon so much to leave me with even the slightest interest in the franchise that it is almost impossible.
I will take any future SW release with strongly reserved cautioness if at all.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I actually created an account so I could give this movie a horrible review. I am not a bot no matter what Disney would like to tell you.

Here are my beefs:

1. Luke Skywalker is a different character than the original movies. If you want to have a character arc where he changes and becomes a hermit fine, but you NEED TO SHOW IT. I did not buy that he would have tried to kill Ben Solo since he exhibited the slightest amount of darkness. Remember he threw his light saber down and would not fight against Darth Freaking Vader and the emperor so he could save him. How am I expected to believe that he is now a completely opposite person? This is the same guy who told the emperor: "You're Wrong, I am a Jedi, Like my father before me."

2. Rey is now all of a sudden a Jedi because what, She meditated on a rock for about 2 minutes? That is all of the training she needs to become a Jedi? She is after all a strong confident woman so the rules don't apply. Luke was on Degobah for months and he was still not ready to face Vader and escaped by the skin of his teeth. She is the biggest Mary Sue in the history of cinema.

3. Apparently you can breath in space now. (See Leia/Bomber Pilot - Also there is no gravity in space so how did she "drop" the bombs?)

4. Leia turning into Mary Poppins was the worst thing I have ever seen in a movie, any movie, EVER. Also, no one on the ship is sucked out after the door is opened, neither do they find it in the least bit curious that she survived the vacuum of space. She also has exactly ZERO Jedi training or any training with the force whatsoever but now she can use it to do **** that Luke Skywalker was never able to do?

5. Snoke - What the hell is his back story, where did he come from and how did he create the first order? No need to explain any of that, just go ahead and kill him.

6. What the hell did Luke die from? Meditating too hard?

7. Luke sucking on the tit of some engorged sea cow. WTF?

8. So Snoke can control and read the mind of Kilo Ren but he does not anticipate that Kilo Ren was about to kill him? WTF?

9. The whole plot about the rebels trying to stay out of range of the first order ships was so so so so so stupid and unbelievable. You mean to tell me that the first order does not have any other ships that could track them down? Also when you are in space you DO NOT NEED FUEL to keep going! And can you remember any other time in Star Wars movies where the had to pull over to gas up?

10. The whole Finn/Rose storyline was a complete waste of time. Rose is the worst character since Jar Jar Binks. I think they just added her to show another minority on the screen and for her to scream about how awful rich and white people are. She serves no other purpose. The blatant feminism and SJW crap in this movie is so out of place. All men are portrayed as bumbling idiots or evil (or both) and all women are amazing and can do nothing wrong, need no training to use the force, and are so much smarter than men.

11. Laura Dern had perhaps the worst acting performance I have ever seen in any movie. She comes off as some super soft "just happy to be here" person and we are expected to believe she is some bad ass general/admiral. Also she had this secret plan to save everyone. Why the hell was it secret? She invited a mutiny since she was secret for no reason.

12. Rose saving Finn at the last second was so dumb, so so dumb. And she falls in love in 5 hours? Him saving the day would have saved the movie to some extent. I am still rolling my eyes from her stupid line about saving what we love or some bull**** like that. We have gone from "I Love You" - "I Know" to this crap!

13. Apparently on the casino planet you get thrown in jail if you park in the wrong place. Plus this whole sub-plot was just Twitter Social Warrior Justice bull**** being thrown in our face. I am in a dark theater to watch a movie and be entertained not preached at. Call me a sexist pig and bad person if you want to feel better about yourself but this whole part of the movie was worthless.

14. So, I am not sure that Disney realized they were making a Star Wars movie. I think they think Star Wars is a comedy franchise.

15. What was the point of the penguin things on the island other than to sell merchandise?

16. What was the point of The Force Awakens? This movie took all of the questions raised in that movie and decided they were not important at all and just threw them out the window. That was the saving grace of TFA is that it raised some questions to be answered in later movies.

17. Kilo is Emo Darth Vader.

I am not sure that Star Wars is salvageable at this point as long as Disney owns the rights. I will enjoy the original trilogy always and the prequels were not as bad as they were made out to be but I think I am done at this point. This movie was a giant middle finger to the original trilogy and people who grew up with STAR WARS.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This review contains spoilers.

There's so much wrong with this film, it's hard to know where to begin. It feels like it was written by someone who doesn't actually like Star Wars, for people who don't like Star Wars. It's the same criticism I have of Star Trek Discovery -- it's not Star Trek, it's a new show pretending to be Star Trek for people who don't actually like Star Trek. For one thing, TLJ is a complete tonal mess. It's afraid to take itself seriously, and so it throws in inane jokes at inappropriate times. It also undoes practically everything that the previous movie set up. After finding Luke Skywalker, [it becomes apparent that he didn't want to be found, so who created the map that was the driving plot point of the first movie?](#spoiler) Snoke was set up as a badass villain, capable of incredible feats of force manipulation, who seemingly comes from nowhere. Okay, I can get on board with there being another dark side user on the level of Sidious being out there in the galaxy, so long as it's explained. But [they kill him off unceremoniously, and we're just left hanging.](#spoiler) I mean, Sidious was strong enough to fight Yoda -- a legendary Jedi master -- to a draw, which I would have thought was a big deal. Having some other guy on his level should also be a big **** deal, but it's never actually explained. Rey's parents? Again, just glossed over as a big **** you to the audience. Keep in mind, I actually like the fact that [she's not a Skywalker](#spoiler), but it bothers me that she has more raw power than just about anybody we've seen, which I'll get to in a sec.

Luke Skywalker's character was completely butchered by the writers, to the point where I doubt that they've ever watched a Star Wars movie. Rey is a completely overpowered Mary Sue whose powers feel unearned, because even Luke Skywalker -- the son of Force Jesus himself -- had to struggle and lose before finally becoming strong enough to face his father. Rey is somehow strong enough to perform incredible feats with the force, despite zero training, because apparently she's just that good. Then there's the new general who goes out like a hero, but again it feels completely unearned because she's a nobody. And don't even get me started on the scene where Leia -- another force sensitive with zero training -- [manages to fly herself back into a spaceship like Magneto](#spoiler). **** that **** And of course, there's Benicio Del Toro's character, who made me want to post elephant dung to the director.

There's just so much wrong here, I can't see myself going to see the third one. It's not Star Wars.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are so many cringe worthy moments in this movie i don't know how people can say the word LOVE when it comes to describing this movie. I can see someone say it was ok but the bad moments in this movie were BAD. I'm not at all against going in a new direction i just wish they would have kept Luke out of it lol. I think this new Luke takes away from OG Luke. That super powerful moment when when we last see Luke in ROTJ where he throws down his saber and essentially his life when he tells the emperor that he's lost "I'm a jedi like my father before me". I guess it would be ok to take Lukes story where they did but that deserves a 3 Movie arc of its own not a 3 act arc. Thats one of my biggest issues with this movie. Luke has been ROTJ Luke in everyones mines for the last 30 some years to just take his character in a new direction in 3 acts is shameful to me. Also please don't put it on fans when the Force Awakens leaves off with this super emotional moment where Rey hands the saber to Luke, the look on looks face the emotion and tension in both of their eyes, a shot that seemed to linger on for 30 secs or so when we circled the characters to just end that scene an that tone that was set with a joke is just terrible. Luke not being true to his character, Luke milking a sea cow, Leia flying though space and the entire Finn storyline was enough to kill anything they might have done well for me.… Expand

Overall I don't think it a good movie, but further it is a terrible Star Wars movie. The plot had holes you could drive a truck through, the attempts at jokes and comedy had terrible timing and either fell flat or felt out of place in a Star Wars movie, there was very little character development, and all the build up and mystery developed in the previous movie (The Force Awakens) was disregarded and turned into a big let down. Luke Skywalker's portrayal was way out of character and to some extent a betrayal to the fans - Luke deserved better. Finally, from the perspective of the fans, the mythology, lore and "rules" of The Force and Star Wars were ignored or disregarded which made the whole thing hard to accept within the established mythos of Star Wars. The pace, timing and editing just did not feel like other movies in the series. I think this is the worst movie in the whole series. I was concerned when Disney took over, and up until now I thought things would work out as The Force Awakens and Rogue One were pretty good in my opinion, but now I feel like Disney ruined Star Wars by throwing out all the rules and the things at least half of the fan base treasures about Star Wars.… Expand

Starts with rebel base being attacked, then they are chased through space... then they go and meet the new not like-able Lando-ish character which of course betrays them. And then finally we get new variation from Empire Strikes Back only to have a throne room scene where the new emperor character (who coincidently has the greatest weakness of overconfidence... just like Palpatine) gets killed (albeit this was a good scene). Then kylo wants Rey to rule galaxy with him. Then massive plot hole of hyperdrive and hunk of metal.. uh Rian... you do realize you just put a super weapon in the hand of every bloke with a hyperdrive and a droid they tell to fly to their death right??? Who needs Death Star plans or fighter craft when some metal affixed to a hyperdrive can destroy a whole fleet in one go?

First, although I truly appreciated some of the stunning visuals and felt that women were rightly given prominent positions in the story, it was the problems relating to the story itself that leads me to conclude this a lackluster outing in the Star Wars cinematic universe. Some of the greatest moments of joy while watching Star Wars The Force Awakens was the challenge to viewers that there were undoubtedly mysteries and plots to be had in the follow ups. I absolutely agree that no viewer should be upset if their favored theory does not come to fruition in a sequel like The Last Jedi but this was not even the case in this situation. Instead, Rian Johnson, the director decided that it would be best to simply throw out any potential twists or plot developments altogether in critical points in the movie numerous times. This ordinarily would be fine, if the previous film had not essentially promised and marketed the potential for exhilarating and thought provoking twists and plot developments. Admittedly it has only been a few days since the release of TLJ and more official reaction may come out, but the response by RJ and Disney so far has been to either ignore that there may be issues with the product they have produced, or paint it as a more vocal minority of viewers causing the shift toward negative reviews. Quite frankly it just comes off as Disney shouting Fake News in order to discredit real issues with this product. They will undoubtedly make money off of this film and there is nothing wrong with that. But hopefully Disney and Rian Johnson can realize it costs them nothing to admit they may not have produced as solid a cinematic film as they are currently portraying it to be.… Expand

So many plot holes to count. They ruined lukes character and didn't develop any of the new ones as well. Kylo basically gives a big F U to the crowd with his dialogue in Snokes throne room (Speaking through the hack Rian Johnson). Honestly I get moving on from the past Saga, sure, but we all know Disney will make a million movies. So just make these last 3 good (well 2 now, well 1 now that this one is horrible) and then they can do what the want with the franchise. They could have made their money and made a good film, but they didn't. Too much humor in serious scenes. I came in wondering a few questions. Who are Ray's parent? Who is Snoke? Who are the Knights of Ren? How did Maz get Luke's Lightsaber? Just to name a few. Zero answered. I went in with 0 answers or expectations. Got zero answers and lost all expectations. Also, to those that say we are all complaining that TFA was too close to a new hope and this one was too far from the OT. Well they stole most of everything from ESB and RTOJ in this movie. Oh, except the slow speed spaceship chase. No matter what I say you'll see it cause it Star Wars but I hope once you do you'll join the rebellion and try and get a film we deserve. As the wise Lando once said "This deal is getting worse all the time".… Expand

This movie is a stuff that is disgusting to attach ratings.
This movie killed all Star Wars world views of the past.
Not only did he defeat the heroes of the past, new heroes also handle it sloppily.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sad to see that they pay most of they official reviews to get a good score,
non of people who watched rate it high must say its good move but this is not a star wars movie at all its some galaxy war movie. what makes star wars is jedi (sith), the mystery of force, the character and they stories.
The movie starts in meaningless space battle, bombers and running out of fuel (wtf is this ww2 movie) and they run from order and they are chasing them but cant catch them, then they came whit some plan including some guy in space casino (las vagas) that casino was so out of star wars character, Star wars is not about money and rich people, and to make mothers worst that whole scene ad no point to story at end at all. Luke was so off character, non of his actions or words resemble the teachings of obi wan and yoda (jedi).
Living on some rock waiting to die. Luke and Snoke die so meaningless deaths, at least they should let Luke and Snoke fight in some epic fight, and if one of them die i can live whit that but this. kylo ren is just so bad character like my friend say
"i could come and slap him" he have no charisma or aura of fear or respect around him,
when you see vader and palpatin you could feel the dark side and Rey why was she in this movie she feels more like filler character lol… Expand

But there were some thin plot threads that might have saved the series so I kept an open mind. No such luck!! This abomination is a deliberate insult to George Lucas and his millions of fans who came to identify with the larger than self issues and heroic sacrifices of his characters. It is a sign of the times, this movie is bad because our modern culture is bad. Shaming and destroying beloved characters, hollowing out the whole concept of the force and inappropriate humor all are designed to mask the thousand pound gorilla in the room- THERE IS NO STORY!!!! Shock and dismay is somehow supposed to replace plot and substance, and of course the kids will eat it up. Many of them have a fetish to cut down the previous generation and appropriate what was ours. The one overriding message of Disney Wars: The Snuff Film is that story doesn't matter, only theme park rides, toys and SJW agitprop. I blame the Lucas and Prequel haters. They couldn't handle an in depth story and wet their pj's over it. Now there is nothing left but a joke of a franchise lampooning itself while grinning like they won a Nobel prize. At least we get to see Kylo Ren on a bag of salad and a can of soup.......… Expand

What I mean by true fan is I've seen every SW film in the theater (this was and will be the last) and my "man-cave" is decorated in SW. This movie is the Crystal Skull of the franchise. Below is what is wrong with The Last Jedi:

1. Luke’s death is meaningless and he dies a coward. That is not the Luke Skywalker of SW lore.
2. Luke milks a space alien. WTF??
3. Leia “Mary Poppins” Organa
4. Spaceships running out of fuel?? When was fuel ever a problem in the SW galaxy?
5. Way too much Guardians of the Galaxy humor.
6. Snoke who?
7. Rey’s full name; Rey “Mary Sue” Nobody
8. Shirtless Kylo.
9. Who needs Jedi anymore? We have SJW (Space Justice Warriors)
10. By killing off the last remaining “old white men”, all the villains are white guys, all the good guys are minorities. Hooray for diversity!
11. Grrrl power!
12. Casino scene is a political jab at the 2%ers, yet Disney is part of the 2%ers.
13. First trilogy people thought that being a Jedi was inherent to the Skywalker bloodline. Second trilogy, if you had enough midichlorians in your blood you can be trained in the ways of the force. This trilogy, everyone has the potential to use the force. In other words, everyone gets a trophy!!… Expand

RianjohnsonhackDec 19, 2017
This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I feel I need to take antidepressants after watching The cinematic catastrophe that is rian johnsons "last jedi". It is an insult to everything the originals were, everything that made those movies great. Instead what we get is a vanity piece from an egotistical director with oppositional defiance disorder. I had a bad feeling as soon as poe Made a joke about huxes mother that this was not going to go the way any true star wars, or quality movie lover for that matter, desired. When i walked out of the theater i felt like my childhood was raped, far worse than any of the prequel movies, because it lacked any kind of reverence for what came before it, the legacy of star wars. In fact rian johnsons actions seem malicious and i find myself wishing the worst kinds of things to happen to this talentless buffoon. His script seemed malicious. We waited this long, only for him to completely destroy one of the greatest charcters in cinematic history , Luke Skywalker, with a nonchalance and hubris that i find deeply insulting. And say what you want about jj abbrahms but at least he was a lover of star wars and respected the foundations george lucas had built. When luke just tosses his fathers lightsaber over his shoulder, this director is trolling an audience just for the sake of shock value. All this movie attempts is shock, with one middle finger after another to the franchises fanbase. But it isnt just the constant disrespect that makes this movie one of the worst of all times , in any genre. Its just piss poor directing and writing, plain and simple. The editing is a mess, and the plot is asinine. Rian introduces things into the star wars universe that make no sense, those giant slow moving bombers, lightspeeding kamikaz cruisers? rebel fleet is running out of gas, who the f is hodo and why do we care? Why do we care about any of these new characters, there was absolutely no develpment. But we did care about learning more about snoke. No sorry the director needs to be edgy and shock you, plus he needs to give a finger to abbrhams. Thats more important than making a good movie. Rey no longer needs any training to become a jedi, lets just wave a stick around a rock. Thats all the training she needs, because the idiotic disney casino scene is far more important. Lets bring in those heavy handed social political statements into an escapist film. Better yet, lets just do it in probably the most highly anticipated film of all time.disney has now bought up and ruined every major franchise that i once loved from my childhood. Shame on you all.
I felt like crying when i left the theater and im a young adult male, tears of frustration and anger for what rian johnson has done. He should be homeless and in the gutter for this i put a curse upon his whole life and i hope something really bad happens to him for this

The way he handled luke was a travesty, i feel so sorry for poor mark hamil, who was contractually obligated by disney to complete the movie and keep his mouth shut as the millions of hardcore fans walking into a nightmare unsuspectingly. Luke skywalker, who threw down his saber in front of the emperor willing to accept death instead of kill his own father makes a decision to strike down unarmed sleeping ben on the hunch that he might turn to the darkside? luke was never a grumpy silly coward, sipping alien milk from the teet? and yet that is exactly how rian chooses to portray him in his woeful ignorance. Add in some cheesy matrix style lightsaber dodges, two in a row, and thats all we see of lightsaber weilding luke, a moment all of us were imagining in our minds for over ten years. And disney thinks its fine, to let rian do this, who the hell is this rian hack anyways, he did three episodes of breaking bad??? What a poor choice, to give the film to this talentless usc graduate. I am so deeply dissapointed in what disney has done here i want them to hurt but i know there are many idiots who will still buy the merchandise play the games and love the shallow trashy dvds. One thing i know for sure is the star wars legacy is dead. Rian has seen to thAt by burning any possible way of recovery, unless you just start over with a brand new episode 8. And leia is dead, and rian had the chance to give her the perfect send off let her float away dead in space, but instead she comes back to life in some bizarre mary poppins act and apparently she is powerful enough in the force to float herself back to the cruiser from space. Its all too much, and some of you might think im overracting but this movie hurt me so badly i had to make a metacritic account just to try and hurt back this director who i hate so much. Its all so sad, tragic, the only ones who won are corporate disneys goons, the rest of us, the true star wars fans and movie lovers, have lost grievously. The galaxy will never be the same, and i wish i could forget i ever saw this movie but i cant. You have been warned avoid this like the plague… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Episode VIII: Revange für George Lucas

Wer die Episoden I bis III unübertrefflich furchtbar fand, wird nun eines Besseren belehrt. Episode VIII ist mindestens so übel die die Prequels. CGI-Snork: lächerlich. Rote Klapperpowerrangerninjas mit Elektropeitschen: unterster B-Movie-Style. Dialoge: atemberaubend dümmlich bis kitschig (der Schluss sieht aus wie ein Weihnachts-Heal-The-World-Musikvideo und vergleicht einen Besen mit einem Lichtschwert- "klasse" Anspielung auf das arme Star Wars Kid) und gespickt mit Zitaten der Episoden IV bis VI, als hätte während des Drehs jemand in regelmäßigen Abständen in einen Hut mit Zettelchen gegriffen, auf denen die OT-Sprüchlein standen, die es dann wie beim Impro-Theater galt sofort irgendwie einzubinden in den blutleeren Klamauk. Chewbacca (frisst ein Hähnchen und grummelt eines dieser Glotzviecher an), C-3PO (soll nicht 'so ein besorgtes Gesicht machen' -hahaha- und gibt wie immer fatale Wahrscheinlichkeiten zum besten), R2-D2 (piepst und projeziert mal wieder Leia in die Bude)... einfach mal aufs Tapet geworfen ohne Sinn oder irgendeine Emotion. BB2 steuert einen gedoptwirkend, laufsaurierartig rennenden AT-ST, der wie ein VW-Käfer passenderweise die komplette Karosserie verliert, um das Innere zu entblößen. Die Rebellen kämpfen mit dünnblechigen, verdecklosen, auseinanderfallenden Seifenkisten gegen verkrüppelte AT-AT-Verschandelungen. Dennoch hält eine hauchzarte Blechdose dem offenbar nur handwarm temperierten "Todesstern"-Wurstgeschütz-Strahl stand... Die "Handlung" scheint von einer untalentierten Schülergruppe auf sagenhafte ermüdende 2 1/2-Stunden zusammengestümpert zu sein unter Aufbringung aller denkbaren Steckungsmittel wie einer Stampede, Meerestiermilchmöpsen, einer Actiongame-Oma (Maz) oder einer Super-Leia als Zombie-Mary-Poppins. Dazu noch hier eine Verfolgungsjagd, da ein neu benötigter Schlüsselmeister, hier ein Lehrer, der nicht will... furchtbar. Der Falke massakriert ungehindert eine komplette Tie-Fighter-Rotte im Alleingang, ein einfacher X-Wing schießt einen ganzen Sternenzerstörer Stück für Stück zu Schrott beobachtet vom rothaarigen Vollhonk,der anschließend noch per Scherzanruf (!) veralbert wird, der neuerdings schlafende Neffen mördende, weinerliche, griesgrämige, Superfeigling Luke versteht sich auf nicht detektierbare Holografie und Rey und die hässliche Emofratze haben eine Telephatie-Skypenummer am Laufen. Im Weltall gibt's nun Schwerkraft für amtlich analoge Kugelbombenteppiche und der Hyperraumsprung als nichtbezwingbare Kamikazewaffe zum Zerstören beliebiger Raumschiffe wird just neu erfunden. Da ist keiner bisher drauf gekommen mal eben ein paar alte Schiffe auf die Gegner zu fliegen mit Autopilot und voll Stoff, soso. Männer sind durchweg Idionten, lilahaarige und hexennasige Scheusale sind weiblich und schlau. AUsnahme Rey: Mary Sue in Reinstform. Ein Farbiger, eine Asiatin, ein unrasierter Europäer, ein stotternder (!) Lando-Verräter, jede Menge unnütze Handlungsstränge und Nebenschauplätze, degenerierte Waffenhändler auf dem Casinoplaneten, amerikanische Namen, Bügeleisen in Startreklogo-Form, Snoke, Luke, Chromeimertrooperfrau: alle tot. Yoda wieder mal da, Imperium ist ein dumme Kaspertruppe und das ständige Hinterhergereise erinnert an Kampfstern Galaktika.Rogue One war mies, schlecht gestaltet und öde, Episode VII ging als dreist-satirische Zitate-Schleuder durch, aber Episode VIII hat sicher nur einen echten Gewinner hervorgebracht: George Lucas, der jetzt gewiss sein sein, dass es eben doch schlimmer kommen kann als bei seinen Prequels.

EInzig das Star Wars Holiday Special ist natürlich noch ein wenig mieser. (Warnhinweis: dieses Machwerk ist aus gutem Grund von George Lucas wieder eingesammelt worden...)… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Yes, it's as bad as you've heard. Other reviewers have deconstructed the film and highlighted its many flaws so I won't retread the same ground. But perhaps I can add this: More than any of The Last Jedi's structural flaws - e.g., narrative and character dissonance - to me the most heartbreaking aspect of the film is its underlying cynicism, both in its worldview and its message.

It tells us there is no such thing as good and evil (it's all just shades of grey) and that those who seek moral clarity are on the wrong side of history.

It tells us that "hero worship" is wrong and should be avoided because our heroes (like Luke Skywalker and Han Solo before him) will inevitably fail and let us down.

It tells us that the past needs to be 'killed' because it's useless, serving no purpose other than as a lesson of what not to do.

It tells us that anyone can achieve greatness, not through hard work, effort and sacrifice but through rejecting one's culture, traditions, institutions, and heritage.

It tells us that laying down one's life for another is wrong because that's tantamount to hate and killing who and what one loves.

It tells us that we can learn absolutely nothing about our identity from our parents, even though our parents conceived, nurtured and brought us into the world. I can't think of a message more antithetical to "Star Wars" - the Star Wars George Lucas created all those years ago (post-Kennedy, post-Vietnam, post-Watergate) than that.

And it just breaks my heart.… Expand

I've sat through it twice, ignoring all the lore that came before it this movie does no favors for itself. It fails to push the galaxy in any direction. One giant stalemate that goes nowhere.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Terrible entry in the franchise. It is not that hard to make a good Star Wars film, yet somehow the creative team behind this movie seemed to have trouble. Luke didn't feel like Luke at ALL, we still don't know who Snoke is and now he is dead, Rey received zero training of any kind yet is still excellent with a lightsaber and the most powerful jedi (clearly done because Rey is a female), Kylo Ren is a weak baby, Leia flying in space..??, and an anticlimactic death for Luke Skywalker who really should have been showcased as the most powerful Jedi because he EARNED that position - Rey didn't. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND SKIP THIS FILM! Financially supporting this movie will only encourage Disney to continue creating garbage quality Star Wars films.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. We all knew that this new trilogy would be desinged for today's viewers to succesfuly sell it. But for god's sake when the population of US turned into anti-white fashist femininsts? Why a ten year old boy or girl needs to see stupidly bad white males as villians and brown/black people, dumb women and ultra powerful droids must be accepted as heros? All the characters are either idiots or cowards. In the old movies all masters light or dark earned their places in hardship, and they fought epic duels in front of our eyes. In these new movies both old masters and heros are shown as cowards and losers also they do not stand a chance on the camera. This time Luke did not even actually fight against any one. In the old movies both villians and heroes had pure causes while on the new movies noone has a real cause to struggle, this effects the value of the movies. The Last Jedi will not end the SW Saga, it just renders the importance of SW Saga as if all the doings of both the Siths and the Jedis, the Imperials and the Rebels were invain, pointless, meaningless. As if that little boy called Anakin never ever lived. All the fun was the small group of people working shoulder to shoulder to stop an evil presence. Both humor and stress was about that little group in all the scenes. Han, Leia, Luke, Chew, 3Po, Artoo in the older trilogy. Qui Gon, Kenobi, Anakin, even Jarjar, 3po, Artoo, Padme in the newer trilogy. They briefly tried Rey, Finn, bb8, Poe but it was destroyed in this movie, Poe just pilots, Finn and bb8 does stupid things with that girl, Rey flirts with Kylo. This is the main reason I guess, not Luke's ending or other plotholes, but the absence of a "close group" having a "journey" while fighting, running whatever, makes this movie not feel like a SW movie :( I understand they want to sell toys and as the resistance finished in this movie we will see all new toys in the next movie but without a soul and without any good plots to actually have fun while watching it, it is obvious that the frenchaise gonna perish in front of our eyes. For the technical part:
1- If hyper jumps work against enemy vessels why the hell nobody used it back in the old six movies?
2- Why you killed Ackbar instantly, he should have been the last captain sacrificing himself to cover the abandoning crew?
3- If Yoda was able the strike lightenings as a force ghost why the hell no jedi force ghosts ever helping to defeat the dark side?
4- How the hell Rey can be so good in being a jedi on her own?
5- How Rey would claim herself a jedi by her own?
6- Ok Snoke is dead but if he was who he claimed to be, with all that visdom and power how the hell he fell to that stupidly easy move?
7- Why Luke told Kylo that there will be more jedis when he was so sure that jedi order was wrong and had to be destroyed?
8- What is the point of resisting against this stupid First Order morons? 9- Why we watched Finn and that idiot resistance girl go all that long to bypass the tracker when the remnants of the fleet should already jumped while secretly sending the forces to the planet?
10- How with all those resources the Fist Order can't bring the "totalitarian peace" upon the galaxy?… Expand

No wonder why Disney liked what Rian Johnson did to Star Wars, he gave them a milking machine with a infinite supply of new nobody heroes! Its like he say yes to everything the company wanted, it reeks of Disney committee.
