It is a bold and innovative film. It works both structurally and aesthetically. The few flaws I can identify in the movie do not change my opinion that this is the best Star Wars movie, along with The Empire Strikes Back.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was a terrible movie in the main arc of Star Wars. If these are direct sequels to 1,2,3,4,5,6 then they completely undermine and ruin characters from those movies. The end of this film leaves Episode 9 basically nowhere to go and no characters left to care about. Why were people super excited for Star Wars The Force Awakens? Was it Poe Dameron or Finn or Rey that had them really excited? No. It was Han, Luke, and Leia back in a new story. Yes, it was cool that we were getting new characters, but the core of the excitement was seeing the end of the story for our favorites. The Force Awakens had problems, but the new characters introduced a lot of fun new mysteries and questions. Finn and Poe and Rey and Kylo were fun. Han and Chewie felt like Han and Chewie and when Han died it was like a kick in the nuts because it was so beautiful to have him back.

Last Jedi has none of that. Luke is insufferable and is sulking on the island being a dick to Rey for most of the movie making her boring and him boring. It turns out that after Return of the Jedi Luke went to train a group of Jedis and failed when Kylo went nuts. Then he hid on an island for the rest of his life. So the big hero of Star Wars basically accomplished absolutely nothing with his life. In the end he shows up as a jedi hologram to fight Kylo Ren as a distraction for the resistance to pile on the Millennium Falcon and get away. Then he dies. It was a cool fight, but what a waste of Luke Skywalker as a character. He's gone now and we never get to see him as a badass master that's likable and fun for an entire movie. What a waste. Luke's death should have been in Episode 9 if they were going to do it.

Further, they faked out Leia's death and then let her live by having he blasted into space, freezing, and then Superman flying herself back into the ship somehow. What the **** And she lived through the end of the movie. What a waste. Now for Episode 9 there are no original trilogy characters that are left. Which would be great if any of the new characters were awesome or there was a big mystery left or conflict ahead. Is there?

Rey's parents are...no one. That was kind of a neat reveal because it says anyone can be a force wielder. There is no one left to teach her how to be a Jedi though she seems able to just kind of know everything on her own (which is dumb). Snoke it turns out is also no one and he's dead. What a waste there. Kylo Ren is angry and angsty and dumb. He's a blunt instrument with no cunning and no cleverness now leading the First Order. Finn spent the movie with a new character Rose and together made the prospect of watching paint dry seem fun. They had no chemistry and had nothing interesting to do. Their jaunt on a casino world was insufferable. Finn almost sacrificed himself at the film's end and that might have been a great move for his character. But, he lived so expect more boring stuff in Episode 9.

Captain Phasma continues to be a character that fans talk about and theory about, but I don't understand why. In two movies we've learned nothing about her other than that she has a shiny suit and keeps fighting Finn. BB-8 and the Porgs are honestly more well developed characters than Finn, Rose, Phasma. That's pathetic. It became really clear how bad Finn and Rose were when Benicio Del Toro's character DJ showed up with an actual personality. Here was a fun character played by an actor with life! How refreshing. He gave the tedious movie a kick in the nuts, but then was gone too soon.

Admiral Holdo. Worthless. Terrible performance. Why kill Admiral Ackbar and give command to Holdo. Yeah, her lightspeed jump to destroy the Snoke ship at the end was cool, but why did she delay so long in doing it AND imagine if Ackbar did it. It would have been a beautiful end for that character.

The film ends with the ENTIRE resistance fitting onto the Millennium Falcon after literally no one in the universe would come to help them. Does the universe prefer the First Order? Seems so. Luke, Leia, and Han defeated the Empire like 40 years ago. And then...nothing changed. This movie effectively made the resistance look moronic for continuing. This is another huge problem for the movie. Lucas created a universe that felt huge. With planets and people's everywhere. Where are all those people and planets? Rogue One had fun characters and planets and people. This has nothing and it suffers for it. Hell, I'd take some Episode 2 political **** just to explain why the fight against the Empire/First Order has been at a standstill for 40 years.

Disney ruined Star Wars with The Last Jedi. I don't care at all to see the conclusion of this saga or where these characters end. What a bummer, especially after TFA left me excited for more Star Wars where the prequels didn't.

Edit: Two years later and this has only gotten worse. What a terrible film… Expand

Something that george lucas understand, he improve with the movies and he added a lot of things that make the movies more interesting. The jedis, the force, the sith, all the universe and all the life form's, the star wars universe its incredible big and amazing, but like everything else, it always need it a good director and a good writter.
Lets be honest with this, star wars the force awakens wasn't a very great movie, we all know that, it was bad, but at the end show somethings that made the way more easy to "the last jedi", JJ abrams drop a lot of interesting things to ryan jhonson, JJ abram though that he would develop that and they would help to each other, but nothing more far from that.

Rian **** jhonson made the worst movie of all the franchise, do you think han solo its a bad movie? well, i hope that you came prepared for the great mighty **** that it is "the last jedi", rian took some ideas of JJ abrams just to broke it all, its hilarious in some point. I can't believe that the return of the jedi have an incredible low score and this **** of the last jedi have 8.5, i mean, really? THEY KILL LUKE SKYWALKER WITHOUTH ANY REASON, DAMN! mark hamil hate the new trilogy, yeah even if he got paid to appear, and yeah, he will return in "the ryse of skywalker" but he dont care about the franchise anymore, and a great majority of the fans think the same. all i can say of this **** is just that, its a **** movie for his own, its even worst like a sequel not only of star wars, its bad even as a sequel of the force awakens, which wasnt the big thing but definitely was better than this piece of ****.

i can tell that this movie put the worst ideas, they made the worst version of luke, they killed luke, rey its a mary sue who is actually good without no reason, they killed snok when he was presented like a treath, the rhytm of the movie is slow, and dont made me talk about boring and stupid characters like rose tico or fin.

i will give it a 1 just because a 0 score would mean that it doesnt appear anything, and thats not the case, disney put a lot of things here, the problem is that all the stuff is a incredible disgustin mountain of ****… Expand

Character building and story questions that were left open from the first movie that should have been answered in this movie were just completely bombed. The plot of the movie was completely ridiculous and useless and there were scenes that literally broke Star Wars lore. It was as if someone was just making things up as they were going just for the sake of looking cool or trying to be edgy. The lightsaber battle which is usually always the saving grace in a Star Wars movie was terribly choreographed (Watch it over on youtube in slow motion and watch how many mistakes there are).

Rian Johnson un-apologetically changes the status quo of the Star Wars universe, and this is a good thing, despite the outraged longtime franchise fans who are mortified by the sudden death of Lord Smoke, felt that it wasn't their Luke they saw on screen, and were terrified by the change of pacing. All this though will pass, and it just proves to me that Abrems made the right decision on hitting the delete button on the old expanded Star Wars universe, which is a blessing and a curse here, it gives Johnson a clean slate to work with however the SWEU fans will refuse to forget. Now, I will be the to say that this is not a perfect movie (the could've cut the whole Finn/Rose story line, and not only would the whole outcome of the movies story been the same, but it would've cut about 45 minutes off the movies overly long run time which would've been for the better. Johnson has a bad habit of being more than a little heavy handed with injecting his politics into his projects and this is no exception, while I don't believe this to have been the appropriate time and place for him to have done so, I didn't let it ruin my experience however I could easily see how it would impact some opinions. The mix of CG and practical effects was well done here, though I felt the casino planet was pointless in terms of effecting the plot it did impress me, especially with the opening shot of the camera moving forward through the casino showing off how great of a job the make up department did here. The acting here was well done, and I must really give props to Mark Hammel who performed perfectly as a disgruntled Luke, seeing him with the Yoda puppet onscreen practically made this movie for me. If nothing else Episode VIII proves something I theorized years before its release, that is is possible for a movie in a franchise to be a technically speaking a great movie, but a bad movie for the franchise, even if (again technically speaking) the movie is one of the better movies of said franchise.… Expand

As the follow up from to theThis movie is everything wrong with Hollywood and why I have lost faith in Star Wars under Disney. Never has a movie/franchise mistreated both fans and the original creator so much then this movie has done. As the follow up from to the horrible The Force Awakens, this follow up does nothing new or proactively pushes the narrative while trying to be new and "bold." It is laughable how bad the script is on a technical level as well as story level when you fundamentally don't understand how a beloved character such as Luke is supposed to act. Rian Johnson does not understand the universe he is working with, disrespects the story (Episode VII) before it to continue a follow up, and he does all of this while sitting on a high horse believing he made art when it is nothing but utter garbage. When you try so hard to put spectical and your own ideology before story and character you will result in garbage as this. This movie shows me what Disney's true colors are and I can easily tell they haven't take any liberty to understand what special universe they posses. Especially while writing this is after Bob Iger's autobiography is released where he admitted to conning Lucas (intended or not) on having Lucas believe they will do his story and his sequels justice. Now I agree with Lucas after Episode VII was released, he did sell it to white slavers and Star Wars is truly dead. I have a decent feeling after two years and this movie has really spit the fan base that Episode IX will not do well. I do not plan on seeing it for one.

Not sure what the OT did to Disney to make them hate Luke, Han, Leia, and Chewie but it comes across as needlessly mean spirited. The action scenes have too many leaps of logic to give any suspense or excitement, many of the new characters introduced in them film come across as unlikable, needlessly withholding information (ya know who they are) completely useless and say truly idiotic dialogue (ya know who they are) and Poe is just so needlessly crapped on it comes across as a "toxic masculinity" message that doesn't work in any way. The First Order is incompetent and are played far too much for comedy. Plot lines set up from the Force Awakens just go absolutely nowhere for no real reason. In terms of the writing the movie is just a mess. Sure it looks great in parts, but it's just no enough to make a good film.… Expand

Too many pointless characters/plot lines and too many un-dismiss-able plot holes. There are some excellent sequences and you can see the elements of a great story...but they fail under the weight of nonsensical script choices.

Ryan johnson is one of the worst director's i have seen and subverting the exceptions is as bad as how Game of thrones ended. I might sound like an angry fanboy. but trust me i am not.

Where was the temperance to involve oneself with the legacy? Fast rush to CGI, constant stop and start film 'progression', a side-plot romance that serves no purpose, half a film's worth of lore left to imagination. It did some glorious acting, superb involvement but to a script that was tantamount to a five year old's wishlist, not the continuation of a saga. Key emotional throwbacks to the episodes 4-6 were the only sentimental moments in a plot that lacked direction. A chewed up, discredited lineage development for the main character discarded. A villain built up in the previous movie but dispatched in seconds of encounter. No notion of galactic politics or the balance of forces at the time. Superficially engrossing your audience is not telling a valid story. Whereas Rogue One is an absolute masterpiece, this film learnt nothing. It had every reason to take the failures of Episode 7, take a look at the acclaim of Rogue One and draw the lessons. Rian Johnson should not be let near a classic movie again. Lucky to get 2 out of 10, the actors deserve praise for sticking to it.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. By far the worst of all the star wars. This movie is a complete mess made by someone who wanted to do something different and assuming that because its different its good. Not everything needs to be different some things are good and that's ok. Lets see... Rey keeps getting more and more powerful without any real training. Instead of failing and learning from it, she always wins! There is a woman who ordered her army to do stuff that made no sense and just said they should obey just because she said so. The people who didn't agree with her where made to be selfish and reckless. Suddenly Leia had super powers that allowed her to wake up from being unconscious and fly in the coldness in space with no problems. A woman stopped a man from saving the day because she "fell in love" with him even though they had no chemistry at all and barely just met. Also, Luke would save the day but when she selfishly stopped the guy from saving the day she didn't know this. The evil villain who was supposed to be the baddest was killed pretty quickly and easy. And then we get to Luke... Luke Skywalker, the guy who never lost faith, who never gave up, the guy who saved his fathers soul and the galaxy, for some reason, became a hate filled, hopeless guy. You know, because when you are the hero of the galaxy and manage to make all your dreams come true, its only logical that you would become bitter, hate filled and leave the world to become a hermit and not care about anyone else. Makes a lot of sense! Also, even though you never gave up on your father after he already turned evil, you give up easily on your nephew who hasn't turned evil yet and try to murder him in his sleep like a coward. This dude destroyed all that Luke stood for and was. I know this is just a movie and I shouldn't care, but I cant deny its sad. I will wait for my friends to let me know what the next movie (episode 9) is about and then Ill check it out because I dont trust this people anymore. There are a ton more things that i disliked about the movie but This is long enough. Its just terrible. I hope Rian Johnson's new Star Wars trilogy gets canceled, he should never be allowed near any SW thing ever again. The one good thing that came out of this movie, to be honest, is that this movie made me see how much I liked star wars because I never was hardcore into the movies, never owned any of them or owned anything star wars but it really bothered me what they did which was surprising to me and made me realize I do like the movies.… Expand

I would get rid of 99 percent of the comedy. No Rose or Vice Admiral Holdo and no casino planet. Finn gets killed by captain phasma. Snoke is revealed as darth plagueis and actually faked his death before to palpatine/sidious. Rey actually gets trained by Luke for a year. Leia dies when she gets sucked out to space, she doesn't mary poppins herself back to the ship. No bombs are dropped because that was stupid. Instead poe and everyone on the ship are captured and held as hostages. Rey and Luke sense this and go to rescue them. Rey finds out that Kylo is her cousin. She is Luke's daughter. Luke tells her this. Rey's mother didn't wan't Luke around because she thought he put Rey in danger. She was also married to another man. They died and Rey was taken by strangers and sold off as a slave. Luke couldn't find her. This hurt him inside so much that it was part of the reason he left. He was ashamed of himself for losing her and then after losing Kylo to the dark side. It was the last straw. Rey forgives him and they have a moment. When they get to the ship Luke and plagueis have a great lightsaber duel but plagueis retreats and gets away. Rey fights Kylo but tries to convince him to turn but he wont listen. She defeats him but captain phasma tries to electrocute her from behind but Kylo puts his body in the way and is killed. Rey then fights phasma and kills her. They free poe and everyone else. They have a big funeral for the dead and Luke and Rey go back to training. Rey learns how to communicate with force ghost, Anikan, Obi Wan and Yoda. She becmes a Jedi.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you've never seen another Star Wars movie, then this one isn't completely terrible...just a typical big budget space fantasy that makes no sense.

If, on the other hand, you are (or were) a Star Wars fan, this movie absolutely is terrible. So many other reviews have pointed out most of the problems (and they are significant), but they've left out the one that bothers me the most. The main reason I didn't like this movie is because it renders all the movies that went before it pointless. All the fantastic effort, all the near death battles, all the just-in-time victories...they're all pointless because, by the end of Episode VIII, the entire rebellion is crushed down to just a few people.

Everything Luke and Leia and Han and Obi Wan and the droids ever fought for...all lost. This is key: if they had never existed, the Star Wars universe would be no worse off. They accomplished nothing. What sort of nihilistic excrement is that? Wherever the series goes from here, it's a completely new story with no heritage from the original movies.… Expand

Makes me think Disney paid off these critics. The Last Jedi is a very meh kind of Star Wars film. There are a lot o flaws. I respect Rian Johnson's decision to take risks but there are a couple cornerstone pieces with the franchise he tampered with too much. Turning Luke into a hermit was extremely disappointing. He made Luke Skywalker the most beloved hero in Star Wars not likeable in this film and that's an insult. He should have looked at what JJ Abrams did with Han Solo and followed his strategy, to bring back the character and make him feel like the one we all remember. Rose, DJ, and Admiral Holdo's character development is god awful, it's almost as if we are supposed to hate them from the start but instead like them. The Canto Bight scene gets the plot carried away. Leia's drifting through space with the force is very strange. The concept of hyperspacing a ship into Snoke's ship is also not Star Wars. although, this film does have strong moments, the opening scene action is great, Rey and Kylo dueling together in Snoke's chamber, and thr final battle scene at Crait. The ending was good too with everyone reuniting on the millennium falcon. This is probably the best visual start wars movie made too it looks very good. Overall this movie is just okay, the critics are giving this too high of a score and some of the users feelings are a little too hurt about what they did with Luke Skywalker. Not one of the better Star Wars, but I do like it better than episodes 1 and 2 of the prequels because it has more action and feels more like a Star Wars film. Here's to hoping JJ Abrams can finish the sequel trilogy off with a bang with episode 9 The Rise of Skywalker.… Expand

Rey is the biggest Mary Sue to ever grace cinema history, Luke is now a hermit that lets himself get beaten by Rey, to remind us that this is a movie with SJW feminazi ideology. Rose is the definition of a pointless character, she takes up screen-time that should have been used for Snoke or Luke (THE MORE IMPORTANT CHARACTERS) She also ruined Finn for me.

Snoke is the definition of a wasted villain, episode 7 was meaningless now, huge villain build-up is gone.

Admiral Holdo was just stuck-up the whole time, completely unlikable and withholding plans to escape from her own team. Didn't even look like a military leader at all. Poe was in this movie to get bashed for saving lives.

There was too much comedy and subverted expectations, everything that happened, happened only because we wouldn't expect it.... that's not good story telling in the slightest.

This movie saved me from spending my money on future star wars movies.

Money grab movie. Bad writing, bad character development, and overall lack of logic in execution.

Completely ruined Star Wars for me. From the writers not understanding and ruining beloved characters, to them not understanding the force and the skill that it requires to be a Jedi to to useless plot lines and the Mary Sue main characterCompletely ruined Star Wars for me. From the writers not understanding and ruining beloved characters, to them not understanding the force and the skill that it requires to be a Jedi to to useless plot lines and the Mary Sue main character that becomes a master by doing literally nothing, I can confidently say that I will not be watching anymore Disney Star Wars movies and I will not consider any of them canon.… Expand

A groundbreaking piece in the Star Wars Saga’s storytelling. Rian takes risks that eventually “switch up the game” and bring an interesting unexpected value to the new trilogy.

It is not as cringy as I expected. I was pretty sure I would be giving it a 3 instead of a 4 based on what I had heard. I certainly wouldn't pay money to watch any of these new Disney or Marvel movies. It was tempting to give it a zero because the Star Wars franchise was obviously hijacked to push a politically correct agenda, but I'm reviewing the movie--not the intentions.

Pros:

Nothing really stands out as a pro other than some aspects of the brief appearance by Yoda and some aspects of Luke's actions at the end.

Cons:

The bad guys are lead by men, and the good guys are led by women.
The bad guys are white, and the good guys are diverse.
The women leaders are military leaders.
Yet another movie that feels it must show us role models of women leading other women in a healthy manor in order to help real women overcome their natural tendency to not get along with each other ... while omitting such relationships and role models for men.
The men are like kids and the women are like wise mothers.
The men are usually wrong and unstable.
Prominently shows that even the main two good men still don't respect women enough.
Rey is a Mary Sue as always (though not as much of a Mary Sue as in The Force Awakens).
Rey continues to have zero personality.
Rey and most of the other characters show zero signs of having a sexuality.
The token black guy is a coward again ... trying to run away ... again.
One of the women sacrificed her life to stop one of the men from sacrificing his life just as he was seconds away from saving all of them ... because that wasn't his call ... but apparently it was her call?
One of the women leaders instantly and conveniently developed the ability to fly through space without a ship or even a suit, which seemed as dumb as it sounds.

The movie kept doing stupid unexpected things for no apparent reason other than to be unpredictable. We are supposed to believe that the lady admiral who reminds us of a new-age book store clerk is so strategically brilliant that she thought of a really obvious new way to use hyperspace that no one in this universe ever thought of before, which is just asinine, but which is doubly asinine because no characters could have thought of it before because it broke the rules of how hyperspace works in Star Wars and in the entire sci-fi genre.… Expand

If you don't care, why do you need to complain so much about "the fans"? Why do you have so much trouble accepting that people just didn't like this movie? They aren't "trying to get the score down". They thought it was a terrible movie. There are MANY people that felt that way. You want to make accusations about bots? How about all the "reviews" that gave this 10 and are fake, or vapid one-liners? How about the attempts to puff this score up? Read the reviews. Some people are admittedly giving this a higher score than they normally would because the low scores are "unfair".

Why is it unfair that this is a bad movie and lots of people dislike it? A few people have been rude in criticism but some people have been equally rude in defending the film. The racist, sexist and bigoted attacks on the fans are completely undeserved. The vast majority of complaints against the film are from people that wanted to like it and were disappointed. Would it hurt to listen to those critiques and at least consider them?

I would have given this movie a 2-3 maybe, the first time I saw it. But now that I've had time to let it sink in, I have to give it 0.

There's nothing redeemable here. People say how great the FX are. Yeah, some of them are good but the whole casino planet was terrible. Those animals were some of the most rubbery, fakest looking CGI that I have seen.

The length of the film is unacceptable. It's far too long for the story it tries to tell. And that story is terrible for a myriad of reasons that have been discussed. Almost nothing in the movie makes any sense.

The way to "rescue" someone is by ramming your vehicle at high speed into theirs? No. That is most likely to kill both people.

And the Resistance are not cast in a good light, at all. Their decisions are senseless and stupid. And what if you are not involved and want to leave? You get knocked out with a taser! You want to know the plan? Shut up and do as you're told. Sounds like a fascist new order. Don't ask questions! Obey (or get hit with a taser)! I found myself hoping that they would get wiped out. I don't need "heroes" who treat their "best pilot" as an enemy. They make horrible decisions and take no responsibility.

I didn't have any "fan theories" about this movie. I didn't watch any reviews, insights, etc. before viewing it. I had one expectation: to see an enjoyable movie. This movie was not enjoyable. It was a failure.

For anyone who likes it, that's great. But people already liked "Star Wars". It didn't need to be "fixed" and for the majority of viewers, it was a miss.

This movie really had potential but I feel that it was all wasted. I won't be watching the next one. Time to move on.… Expand

Very disappointing. Threw away a lot of the more interesting plot points of episode 7, forced new characters who gave little to the plot and main plot lacked sense.
