<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8231366"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">There's a way to go your own way without giving a giant middle finger to your fan base. Heck, I didn't consider myself a star wars aficionado at all and this movie still made me irrationally angry about the treatment of the characters (specifically Luke). *rant begin* If this was anything but Star Wars the critics would have taken it to school over the lack of consistent tone (weird and off-putting humor abounds in what are otherwise supposed to be significant and awesome moments. And yes, there is a "your mom" joke in the first 5 minutes), the lack of character growth, the lack of physics/ any real rules in this universe now, and the overall disjointedness of the plot (Watch Disney shoehorn in a completely useless subplot to take a shot at rich aristocrats. Look, I hate rich aristocrats as much as the next person, but it comes off as hypocritical when Disney is simultaneously beating small theater owners into submission with new screening demands.). Every critic's newspaper that published a glowing review of this mess is trying to divert attention and say that all the bad reviews are from the alt-right people who can't stand feminists. But hey, the alternative would be to admit that they are really just in Disney's pockets. I guess the alt-right boogeymen story will have to do. I voted for Hillary. I didn't vote for Star Wars to turn into a ham-fisted attempt at social commentary. These movies were supposed to be an escape. A chance to take your mind off of the bitter division in today's politics and believe in real heroes again. Sadly, the only escape you will get from this movie is when the lights come on and you can move on with your life and accept that these movies aren't for you anymore.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8231366">Expand</a></span> | |

The feminist undertones were there, and is Star Wars better for it - a resounding NO. The "humor" fell flat. It's also way too long. I was going for the Empire, ahhh I mean First order, by the end. The only good thing about The last jedi will be the Plinkett review.<br/><br/>FYI. Bombs are only applicable when there's gravity.<br/><br/>Update: After letting The last jedi sink in, a few things have become apparent. First, as a stand alone film, The last jedi isn't terrible, but as a follow up to The force awakens, it is garbage. I can see why Star wars fans hated it. Rian Johnson (the writer/director) basically flipped off every Star wars fan out there. He took a huge dump on everything that was set up in The force awakens. Who was Snoke, who are Rei's parents? Such potential for story development was wasted. The last jedi should be struck from the record and they should try again with Star wars 8.1. I seriously doubt any degree of course correction in Star wars 9 could make up for The last jedi. BTW. Disney, good luck selling toys for whiny emasculated male characters and irritating SJW/feminism-driven female characters.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8188856">Expand</a></span> | |

<span>This is without a doubt the most controversial star wars movie ever. Plenty love it, but far more seem to hate it, and honestly, I couldn't tell you why. Last jedi is a fantastic movie that was more than worth the 2 year wait.</span> | |

This is not Star Wars.<br/><br/>It does some of the 'small story' well: portraying realistic characters and their motivations, and some accurate 'petty politics' (that don't add any real interest).<br/><br/>The writing is curiously unpredictable: with the usual Hollywood trash you know exactly what is going to happen, but this is unfamiliar trash (it reminds me of some Netflix stuff). So a point or so for that.<br/><br/>I actually like Rey and Kylo Ren, but everything else is bad.<br/><br/>And the rebellion is too England accent heavy.<br/><br/>I wonder what Star Wars episode 50 will be like... Disney paid $4 billion for Star Wars... Star Wars will be going forever like Batman, etc. lol<br/><br/>At the same time I would rather have more Star Wars than have it die with Lucas at the first 6. Maybe they'll get better at this eventually and we'll have a few gems a la 'The Dark Knight'.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8190216">Expand</a></span> | |

It's filled with great shots, top notch scoring, some intense scenes and moments and amazing performances(Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver). Like many fans on here will say, this movie stumbles from a storytelling standpoint. The pacing is off, for one. Just going from the start of the movie, the film has very little forward momentum for nearly two thirds of its running time. It mixes its most interesting and compelling plot thread in with one not so interesting one and another completely needless one involving Finn, Rose and a Master Codebreaker. Becoming somewhat muddled from a storytelling perspective and apart from the main plot point involving Rey, Kylo and Luke, it could have been done alot better and wastes good characters (especially Finn, Poe and Rose) doing so. This makes the film rather frustrating, it takes risks with established lore and takes it in new directions but as it does that, it proceeds to completely sweep what came before it under the rug and treat it as we're supposed to get behind the direction theyre trying to take these movies in and completely disregard the past and what it means. Say what you will about The Force Awakens, it didn't do anything original in terms of storytelling but what it do, it did well. It offered up a new, uncharted direction without killing the past and kept me interested and excited in what Disney could do with these movies. The Last Jedi doesn't do that and blatantly demolishes what makes the past movies so good. It's the first Star Wars movie since Attack of the Clones where I left the theater underwhelmed and frustrated with the story. It's not nearly as bad as Attack of the Clones was at the time but you cannot deny that The Last Jedi is a structurally uneven and often frustrating film that almost always robs it's audience and it's characters any sense of satisfaction. Its a film that is too concerned with doing new things that it almost shuns it's past, betraying itself almost in a sense. It's still a good movie, don't get me wrong but it could have been done alot better had Johnson been kept in check.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8229274">Expand</a></span> | |

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_7916772"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">I have loved every Star Wars movie so far, even with all their flaws. But this movie is the worst Star Wars movie I have ever seen and the biggest movie disappointment of the decade. Spoilers ahead.<br/><br/>This movie is just littered with plot holes, it feels like they scraped all their ideas from episode 7 and just came up with their own dumb ideas. The movie fails so early on when they pick up from where episode 7 ended. The introduction to Luke's character is insulting. How incredibly disrespectful to have Luke to throw his fathers lightsaber like that, just for extremely poor comedy. It is just terrible they made one of my favorite fictional heroes into an unlikable, cowardly idiot who apparently has not learned anything over the years. Sure he has learned some new powers, but apperantly he has forgotten everything from the Original Trilogy. He faced his own darkness and won, this internal struggle he goes through was so incredibly unnecessary because he has already faced his own darkness before. They pretty much just turned Luke into a worse version of Yoda. And the big set piece showcase at the end of the movie is so poorly handled that it comes across as a parody. And the worst part is that they also kill him off in the dumbest way possible... His motives also does not make any sense for his character. Such as he does not want anything to do with anyone, but then why did he leave the map for his location in episode 7? Why did he even travel specifically to the first Jedi temple for no real purpose? Why would a character that risked everything to save his friends and his father, somehow just abandon everyone? Even at one point he wanted to kill his own nephew and at the end he says Kylo is completely lost and can't be save anymore. Even Leia agrees with him, are you kidding me!? Luke who saved Vader, who was way more corrupted by the Dark Side than Kylo is, somehow just abandons Kylo Ren to the Dark Side... I never thought I would say this, but I really hate Luke in this movie, because I don't even recognize him as the same character. Mark Hamill is an amazing actor, but I did not feel like I was watching Luke at all... But enough about Luke, I got to move on.<br/><br/><br/>The whole story arc with Finn, Rose and Poe is completely pointless. It leads to nothing, or actually it leads to the deaths of a lot of resistance members. Had they not done anything in the movie, then it would probably have turned out much better. So why would I like these character now when they are just characters who make terrible choices that leads to lots of deaths. And why did not that Holdo woman just tell them the plan, then none of that would have happened.<br/><br/>They also ruined the character of Rey as now she is just someone with no special lineage, but somehow she is beyond powerful even though she has had no training. I did not like that people called her a Mary Sue in TFA, because I always thought there had to be a reason for why she is so powerful. But no, she truly is a Mary Sue and completely one dimensional. I don't care anymore about her character anymore as she has not earned her powers or her place as a real heroine. It also cheapens the force as now it is trivial, anyone can somehow become more powerful than those who have been conceived by the force itself. Small kids can force pull brooms with no guidance or training at all. And who is Snoke? Why is he so powerful? Who knows, they kill him off and leaves another plot hole. And he is like this super powerful sith who can connect Kylo and Rey together from across the galaxy... But somehow can't notice Kylo Ren betraying him in the dumbest way possible. And why did not Kylo Ren use his force powers in the fight that followed?<br/><br/>The writing in this movie is just horrible. So many hamfisted plot points that makes no sense, pointless characters like Rose has way too much screen time for no real reason. One can say that the laws of nature and physics is important in fictionl works such as Star Wars. But when you break the rules in the same movie, then it is a problem. As we are shown that bombs fall inn space in the beginning, but we are shown that there is vacum in space when Leia gets blasted. So did the writers just forgo any form of logic here? There are some cool action sequences and visual scenes, the music and cinematography is amazing. But that is the only thing this movie has going for it and when the context that those aspects are supposed to enhance is complete garbage, it becomes irrelevant. This movie is far below average, I can't believe how bad this movie turned out. And it is baffling to me that such a stupid movie riddled with plot holes have critics praising it. These are supposed to be professional reviewers, how can they not see the glaring issues in this movie? Really shows that one should never trust them.<br/><br/>I do have to congratulate Disney, you ruined the saga for a life time fan. I really have no more interest in this story anymore.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=7916772">Expand</a></span> | |

A little messy with so many characters and intertwined story thread's that don't harmonize very well together. The movie needs more of Luke (aka the last jedi) where as it focusses too heavily on the spark (aka the resistance). All be it, the movie was a cinematic epic plunder I can say emits something only several blockbuster's ever have for me. Episode 8 is enriched with powerful themes, excitement and crass humour. Builds off the incline of 'the force awakens', so if didn't enjoy the predecessor, the last jedi is not for you.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=7847431">Expand</a></span> | |

Things that I liked - the visuals are stunning, with only a few minor cgi issues. Cinematography, lighting, set design, costumes, all of it was incredible. The music is a step up from The Force Awakens, and I enjoyed it. There is some good acting, mostly from the older cast. Now for the negatives. The story and plot, from start to finish and without a single exception, is horrid. Logical inconsistencies are everywhere, from stupid reasoning and decision making by main characters to a complete inability to explain obvious questions, ie. why the First Order doesn't simply send a couple ships a light speed ahead of where the fleeing "resistance" is heading and cut them off. Then there is the tone, which is all over the place. Forced, horrible humor cut in the middle of life and death situations. Levity from characters like a dejected, defeated Luke that goes completely against what we are told his character has become. COMPLETELY useless subplots that render certain characters pointless. Finn, Rose, and to a large extent Leia might as well not even be in this movie. Also, Rose is worse than Jar Jar. I would rather watch an entire Jar Jar solo film than endure even another minute of Rose's horribly overacted, useless character. Also, they destroyed Luke. Completely, utterly destroyed him. He is a shell of his former self, making stupid jokes, not caring about anything, SHOWING A WILLINGNESS TO KILL HIS OWN NEPHEW JUST BECAUSE A LITTLE BIT OF DARKNESS WAS GROWING IN HIM. Oh I'm sorry, he had an entire trilogy about forgiveness and seeing the good in even the darkest figures in the galaxy, i.e. Darth Vader, yet the boy he grew up with, the son of his sister and best friend, shows he has darkness in him and Luke, in some pathetic showing of weakness, considers ending his life. Pathetic writing. Pathetic story telling. I would give this movie less than a zero if I could. All of this is without mentioning Leia's superman/mary poppins act out in space, where she should have been burned, hit with debris, has the liquid freeze in her body, and have been deprived of oxygen for what looked like several minutes, despite having shown zero inclination of how to use the force at all previously besides little feelings here and there. Oh, and Rey is just as much of an all powerful Jedi god again despite no training. She can do no wrong. She is an angel. There are zero stakes at play for her, because she is perfect. Oh, and then there's the bomber run at the beginning, where gravity apparently exists in space, and someone can be exposed to the vacuum of space and still breath. There's Luke milking an elephant cow thing and drinking it's blue milk...just what in the actual f.... There's the forced political crap, like the Admiral's purple hair, the animal cruelty messages, the obvious diversity just to check boxes. I am a liberal, but don't you dare infect star wars with political statements. There's the Admiral herself, who is set up like a villain for LITERALLY NO REASON OTHER THAN THEY WANTED TO MAKE POE LOOK LIKE A FOOL. Seriously, I challenge literally any fan of this movie to explain why the film did everything it could to portray her as a villain when in actuality she is self sacrificing and heroic, a close friend of Leia's. Why she wouldn't give her plan to the only commander she has left. If you can't trust the military leader of your remaining...what, 250 people?...then who CAN you trust? So dumb. Then there's Luke projecting himself across the galaxy - fine, you want to introduce new aspects of the force, I'm ok with that - only to have him DIE ANYWAYS?!?! WHAT WAS THE POINT OF HAVING HIM PROJECT THEN?!?! Just have him go there if you're going to kill him. Have him fight, go out like a hero, take out a bunch of the First Order with him! Oh, I'm sorry, you wanted to have him die while echoing the twin sun shot from A New Hope. So you twist the plot around to make that happen, when the logic makes zero sense and it's just a "gotcha" moment for the audience. So dumb. Then there's Rey lifting the entire mountain of rocks when Luke couldn't lift the X-Wing after a bunch of training. Wait, what about Rey's backstory being entirely pointless? Even though YOU THE FRANCHISE built it up as some great secret? In the same vein, how about building up who Snoke could possibly be, building up his all powerful command of the dark side, only for him to monologue like every other villain and for some reason not sense Kylo betraying him then dying without a shred of backstory or importance? This movie did so many things wrong, spat in so many faces, that I refuse to see it as cannon. It is a fanfic, a piece of imaginating from a politically motivated teenager. It is pathetic in every way, insulting, ridiculous, funny for all the wrong reasons, and a disgrace to fans.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8222401">Expand</a></span> | |

Avoided seeing this in theaters due to hearing about the death of luke. Finally broke down and watched this and it was even worse than I expected. This movie single handedly throws away everything about the star wars universe. It destroys characters that were created and loved by many, all in the name of what? So many pointless idiotic scenes. So many poor attempts at humor that fall flat and are out of place. The plot holes are laughable. Sure star wars movies aren't rock solid in the plot department, but this one just throws that rule book out the window. If this movies critical reviews aren't a sure sign that reviews are bought and paid for by disney then I don't know what is. This is NOT the star wars movie you are looking for.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8222398">Expand</a></span> | |

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8219954"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">Some nice things in this movie, but also a lot of bad with that. The Rose/Finn side-story was kind of annoying and didn't really fit into the movie. Too much time was spent on their little trip. Every character just seemed to be off in their own-subplot for most of the film, and a great lack of character development didn't help. I never got emotionally invested in any of the characters. Luke Skywalker was poorly written, and very contradictory to his strength in the original trilogy. Kylo Ren continued to be a poor character, which is a shame as Adam Driver is a very good actor. He is very conflicted between light and dark, and comes across as very weak, and changing his allegiance numerous times during the movie. The scene with killing Snoke was also ridiculous, and Snoke didn't realize his anger was directed at him? Too many themes were just rehashed from the original trilogy, and I was hoping that after The Force Awakens was a nostalgia trip they would have written this movie to be more of it's own, but still too much just copies the themes of the original trilogy. It also went a little overboard with the kid-friendly nature, which begun with the prequels when Disney bought the rights. The balance with humor and seriousness was much better in the original trilogy.<br/><br/>Overall, it was enjoyable, but die-hard Star Wars fans will be disappointed seeing their favorite characters so poorly written.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8219954">Expand</a></span> | |

Ok, first things first: As a big, life long fan of all that is Star Wars, this movie makes me very conflicted. It is gorgeous. It has some of the finest sound editing, effects, and looks. The acting is good, and some of the action pieces are exciting and fun. Some of the jokes work. With that said, I'm really conflicted about the story; In an objective view, it is well done and written, but as a fan of the original expanded universe I really hate some of the choices and decisions they made. So how to rate it? As a lifelong fan, I would give it a mediocre or bad score, but I recognize that if I didn't know anything about the other story, I would probably love it. So trying to be as objective as I can, as a movie only it is well made, and is a fun time. That being said, I can see why is so polarizing to the fandom.

Its visually spectacular and covers all the looks and sounds you expect from a Star Wars movie. However the story is a mix of uninspired and boring. Neither of which are even remotely good.<br/>Narrative-<br/>The narrative of this movie is the same as episode 5. Just as how episode 7 was like episode 4. A new Jedi goes to another planet to learn from a master to become stronger with the force, then they leave to go help their friends. That is the narrative of episode 5 and 8. If you spend a while looking into it you will only find more parallels. In fact the only significant change to narrative is the casino storyline, (which I won't spoil) which sucks. It tries to make you care about characters you just really don't and it amounts to nothing. This could be a normal length, not original but enjoyable still movie, however the casino just seems like they had to do something with John Boyega to remind you his character still existed. It is bad on that front. Visuals-<br/>This movie has my favourite visual aesthetics of a Star Wars movie to date. The planet, Crait, at the end is just awesome. Its like a huge salt flat with red dust under the surface, making a stunning visual filled with contrast of colours. Also the casino is very interesting looking, despite being useless.<br/>Audio-<br/>Its Star Wars audio. Its pretty cool.<br/><br/>To finish this review, I have to disclose that I'm not the biggest fan of the series. I have no investment into this series particularly like so many others do so thats why I can excuse some of the things like how they use Luke Skywalker as a character. However the story is just not good for a movie that should be this epic. In fact the only way I could tell that this movie was epic was from its visuals which were spectacular. However I still wouldn't go to see it again, or recommend it to non-fans of the series. It has positives but it is still a below average film.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8216853">Expand</a></span> | |

I hope that this 3rd trilogy or at least from this second movie on, to suffer a reboot.

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8024241"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">Absolutely fantastic. One of the best movie experiences I have ever had in my life. This is one of my favorite movies of this decade and currently my favorite Star Wars movie to date. This movie had so much depth and meaning it is unbelievable.<br/><br/>Not only is there amazing character development in this movie but the audience can learn something as well. This movie teaches the message of learning from failure. Luke Skywalker eventually learned from his failure and decided to make things right. This movie also teaches the lesson of not being reckless. Poe's recklessness of trying to be the hero twice caused the Resistance heavy casualties. In the Battle of Crait, Poe changed. He realized that destroying the canon was a suicide run and ordered everyone to return to base. Poe in the earlier part of the movie would have allowed heavy losses just to "blow something up". People complain that Holdo should have told Poe the plan? Why should she have? Poe was reckless and the whole entire bombing fleet was destroyed. If she told him the plan, he just would have messed up the plan and would have wanted to do things his way.<br/><br/>I love Rey and Kylo's character development in this movie too. Kylo goes from wanting to be like Darth Vader to killing his past, seeing the pain of being Snoke's servant. Rey also needed to learned how to let go of her past and accept the reality that her parents were drunks and she needed to be in control of her life, just like what the cave scene revealed. The emotion was amazing in this movie. The scene when Paige scarified herself to blow up the dreadnaught was powerful. The scene that showed Luke losing everything was also very sad. The scene when Kylo Ren smashed his helmet to represent letting go of his past, I was able to feel his pain and frustration. The scene when Finn was about the sacrifice himself but Rose saved him was a great scene. I know people complain about Rose but seriously, do you not remember Anakin from Attack of the Clones. Sure, Rose was one of the weaker characters in this movie but she was far from bad or annoying. At least she didn't whine and complain about how much she hated her life or how she lost her sister. Luke Skywalker's scenes were very fun and exciting to see. I am actually happy he wasn't this god like he was in the EU, but an actual character with flaws. Yes he felt hopeless, because he lost everything and failed to prevent Kylo from going to the dark side. Being the mentor and being the student like he was in the Return of the Jedi are two experiences you cannot compare. Luke Skywalker in Return of the Jedi didn't know what is was like to diligently train Jedi and fail miserably. At least with Ben Kenobi and Yoda they say the hope when Luke and Leia were born. Luke on the other hand, lost everything, failed to prevent the darkness from rising, and felt discouraged from that. If I were Luke, I would have felt the same way, even if I saved my father from darkness. The fact that we get a different side to Luke is fantastic. I love how Yoda restores hope in Luke. Luke then made things right by "confronting" Kylo and saving the rebellion.<br/><br/>I actually really liked the Canto Bight scene. Though that scene, Rose taught Finn that the Resistance is not only fighting the First Order to restore the Republic but to end evils such as slavery and restore freedom to all people. In the end, Rose was able to avenge her past as a slave and use the animals to tear through the casino.<br/><br/>I didn't get to explain every single thing I loved about this movie. I respect your opinion if you disagree with my review. There are movies that I disagreed with the majority. I don't know the majority opinion of the Last Jedi but all I am doing is stating my opinion. I can say that this is my favorite Star Wars movie and one of my favorite movies of all time. Very rarely do I give a movie this rating but I give this movie a 10/10.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8024241">Expand</a></span> | |

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8205203"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">I honestly cannot believe the negative response to this movie. I can only assume it's because people didn't understand the plot points or because they're original fanboys who cannot enjoy creativity or a different view of the Star Wars Universe. With amazing visuals, a plot to keep you guessing, no clear cut path, and suspense to keep you on the edge of your seats, I can only imagine that people who didn't like this movie are clearly sticklers and have not a creative bone in their body.<br/><br/>The Bad: I felt that, for most people, the plot could be a little convoluted and a little "too much" going on. The introduction and subsequent fall of new personas in the SWU is a little much. There was little explanation of a lot of characters but you can always hope for SWEU or connonical novels. What made me feel a little off was that Ray suddenly has amazing powers from the force that others have trained YEARS to accomplish. All of the sudden she is on par with Kylo Ren. The Good: Where to start? The movie has breath taking visuals that don't feel "too smooth" that a lot of CGI does in movies. The acting is great, a lot of tension breaking moments with a bit of comedy that makes it feel real and not too over dramatized. The story line is good and solid. People complain about a major plot point of fuel for a star ship. All I can say is that we've just never encountered the problem until now which is good. Who wants the same dilemma in EVERY movie? It didn't just "run the course" of how everyone expected the movie to run. Having Luke begrudgingly coming back to save the day and the movie ending with everyone happy and alive and safe. At the end of this movie, you fell positive about the outcome but then you realize that the resistance is down to a scant few. Luke is gone. Kylo Ren seems to be committed to his role in the dark side. The movie was to show you that no matter how bad the circumstances, you must keep fighting. Even when you're down to a small ship full of resistance fighters and 1 semi trained Jedi, there is STILL a resistance. I mentioned before that Ray has amazing powers that others have trained for years to obtain in the bad section. What I like about is that it represents the light rising to meet the dark. While the Jedi in the Old Republic having to train, they never had to rely on the force for the sake of the galaxy, simply struggles that had no real impact on anything. Rey is now the embodiment of the light side of the force since Luke has passed making her the beacon of light in this time of dark. Simply put, if you have a semi imaginative mind and don't want to watch a movie that does the same old drab "good guys down miraculously win the day" movie, then this is definitely a watch. I simply cannot understand how you can give this movie anything under a 4. Again, I can only assume a biased audience that felt entitled to a movie course of their choosing. This movie is not for the entitled fanboy of the SWU, its for people willing to explore the SWU and take it further and watch others imagination and ingenuity come to life to create an amazing story.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8205203">Expand</a></span> | |

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8197888"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">Ok, so some people claim, that "Star Wars" fans are outraged because they had too high expectations. No. NO! Please show this movie to anyone who never cared about Star Wars, never watched it, and trust me. they gonna say the same. Let's look at it as "a movie", not Star Wars. First..the plotline is just a mess. The whole "find the codebreaker" is a filler. They didn't need to leave, they didn't need to come back, none of that was necessary, they accomplished nothing. Second, it's boring. They recycle a lot of monologues and just a lot of meaningless and shallow conversations. There are lots of cool special effects, but none of them stands out to be any better than all the sci-fi movies in the past 10 years already done. 3Rd. Shallow and make people feel empty. The movie has so many missed opportunities and lacking any character development. Example: Who is Snokes? Where did he come from, how come he is so powerful? He basically exists as a filler to have someone more evil than Kylo Ren, but have no other role. The girl Jedi- if you can call it a jedi, has no training, and all she does is lifts some stones, talks to Kylo Ren via telepathy and she almost gets killed by some guards while fighting with a lightsaber. There is no demonstration of the force in this movie. Kylo Ren character is more like a misguided teen seeking stupid revenge, but doesn't feel like some powerful villain. There is nothing scary about that guy and he looks like he's gonna cry any minute, every time the camera is on him. So , in a nutshell, I was disappointed and felt empty at the end. That's it? The whole movie felt like a family feud and with all the starships and characters, it's like 40 vs 40 people, but the galaxy is fine, nobody cares, let them duke it out, but essentially they are insignificant. There is no galaxy-wide problem with this, as I said, a family feud.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8197888">Expand</a></span> | |

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8019427"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">The Last Jedi is the rebellious little kid of Star Wars movies. It unashamedly broke all the rules of Star Wars. It shattered our expectations and derailed the ongoing story. It's a movie that's constantly one step ahead of the viewer and stubbornly refuses to stick to the Star Wars formula, frequently changing direction in ways that any fan of the previous movies would never expect. Oh, you thought Snoke would be the big final boss of the saga? Nope, he's dead and Kylo's taken his throne! Thought Luke was a saint with a heart of gold? Nope, he's a grump and tried to kill his nephew! Thought Rey would be revealed to be Luke's daughter or Obi-Wan's granddaughter? Nope, she's just some nobody who is uncommonly strong with the Force!<br/><br/>All of this and much more has disappointed thousands of fans, but all of these changes were necessary in order to redefine what Star Wars is and what it can be. The Last Jedi could have been a formulaic and predictable continuation of the previous film. It could have been two and a half hours of obvious fanservice. But that's not what a good movie needs to be. It needs to be daring. It needs to be shocking. It needs to be challenging. It needs to pull the rug from under your feet. And The Last Jedi does this again and again and again. And by doing this, The Last Jedi has exposed the danger of fan theories and what happens when you raise your expectations way too high. In other words, don't write the movie in your head before you see it. Just sit back and see what you get!<br/><br/>The Last Jedi is by no means perfect, but it doesn't need to be. Its impact on Star Wars history will not be forgotten. And now, the events of Episode IX are shrouded in mystery. We have no idea what will happen next, and this has made me really excited for the final chapter of the saga and the conclusion of the Skywalker family story. It's going to be a treat.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8019427">Expand</a></span> | |

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8194825"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">"The Last Jedi" was an unpretentiously subversive, bold, hilarious, auteur-driven, beautifully presented, humanist, and emotionally powerful film with some of the most wonderful action, acting, writing, themes, and characters in all of "Star Wars." It is about as polished as a film in this franchise could get, stands as well on it's own as V and VI, and it is the least “corporately-driven” installment since "The Empire Strikes Back."<br/><br/>It supplants practically every single convenience, trope, and expectation associated with the series (romances are unrequited loves, legendary heroes are flawed and tragic icons, what seem like great coincidences result in dismal failures, etc.) and in turn succeeds in giving it palpable growth and stakes while presenting simple, but powerful/all-encompassing themes that should be taken to heart.<br/><br/>"But Luke's development was an inexcusable betrayal to his character!"<br/><br/>Luke's characterization was entirely appropriate for a western monomyth hero. Just look at Arthurian Legend and its central figure's not so happy story, which has always served as one of the blueprints for Luke's writing. It's especially appropriate given the implications that the impulsive nature and rage he displayed in both V and VI make about him. There's even a meta-narrative argument to be made concerning George Lucas's background and ideology while he was writing the original trilogy in the aftermath of the Vietnam War era, and this makes Luke's disillusioned veteran portrayal even more apropos. After all, this new trilogy is already meta to begin with in how it treats the legacy of "Star Wars" with characters like Rey and Kylo Ren, both of whom are technically "Star Wars" fans.<br/><br/>Luke endured an awful conflict for much of his life. It took away friends, family, and scarred him for life. After it's over, he finally knows peace, only to find out years later that Ben will reignite those horrors. In what way, shape, or form is it not logical or faithful to his character to have him experience murderous intent in this scenario, only for it to "pass like a fleeting shadow," not unlike what happened in the aftermath of Luke and Vader's final duel? He saw light in his father, but he saw darkness in his nephew.<br/><br/>But sure, all of this is somehow way less interesting and respectful towards Luke Skywalker as a character than how the Expanded Universe had him cowardly betraying all of his friends and become the resurrected Emperor Palpatine's apprentice. Let's just completely disregard this universally, socially relevant story of a historical figure being intensely deified in the face of serious faults.<br/><br/>“That milking scene was disgusting and pointless.”<br/><br/>If the whole point of that sequence was to disgust, then it wasn't really pointless. The audience is not supposed to be looking at Luke in a positive light, at least not in the beginning of the movie. Personally, I thought Finn drinking the dirty water in VII was much worse, and it baffles me that I even hear this complaint enough that it bears mention.<br/><br/>"Why did Luke just decide to become one with the Force in the end?"<br/><br/>Luke didn't willfully disappear. The strain of projecting himself across the galaxy killed him, which is something that was foreshadowed by Kylo Ren when he was telling Rey how the effort of bridging their minds together would kill her. The film shows that Luke has no way of getting off the island. I’m almost certain that Luke will come back as a force ghost in IX since we were never told Rey's third lesson.<br/><br/>"Mark Hamill has numerous interviews talking down the direction Rian Johnson took the character."<br/><br/>Rian Johnson and Mark Hamill had initial creative differences (something that happens extremely often in this business), ones that Mark clarified were inconsequential to the quality of the finished product, which even George Lucas (who was explicitly hostile towards Disney and vocal about his indifference to "The Force Awakens's" direction) thought was a great movie.<br/><br/>Besides, even if this assertion that he hated the movie was true, why is Mark's opinion the only one that "matters"? What about the other original cast members and creators? It just seems like detractors are going out of their way to reach under the barrel here.<br/><br/>"Why would Luke leave a map behind if he didn't want to be found?"<br/><br/>The films never said that Luke himself left that map for people to find him. That map just revealed the location of Ahch-To, which as Kylo stated in VII was hidden from the Empire's archives. People only assumed that Luke was there because that's where the first Jedi temple was created, and they happened to be right.<br/><br/>"Rey is too good at things, so she is a Mary Sue."<br/><br/>Let's ignore the fact that the operational definition of this term is universally misunderstood in this context...so her getting frozen, captured, and then force slammed against a tree to the point of unconsciousness by Kylo Ren, having trouble taking down a</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8194825">Expand</a></span> | |

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8193156"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">I saw the AT-M6 walkers in the trailer and prepared myself for a rebooted Empire Strikes Back. Fortunately, The Last Jedi was not a clone of episode V and it instead felt mostly unique. In this review, I will talk about the parts I saw that were heavily criticized online and by friends and offer my own opinion on them.<br/><br/>First, and I think this is the one thing people hate the most about The Last Jedi, is Finn and Rose's subplot on the lavish world of Cantonica. A lot of my friends and people of the internet have said this part of the film was pointless and not needed. I only agree to an extent. I think the scene helped build the world of the sequel trilogy. It was nice seeing a prequel-ish world in a world where the prequels are mostly hated. We learned that the First Order is not funded by their own pockets but by corporate actors who see benefit from picking sides in the war. The movie makes a political point by suggesting the war between the First Order and New Republic is only about money and neither side is fighting for anything they truly believe in. "Freedom to restore the Republic" becomes a manufactured truth. With that said, the other political point, the cruelty of animals by humans, seems forced. We learn Rose has a hatred for the people of Canto Bight because they use poor people (like her family) to do the dirty work for them while they make bank. For some reason, this point becomes about animals. Finn and rose, when escaping the police on these animals, are laughing and enjoying the ride as if they don't have a job to do and their entire Government is hours away from being blasted out of existence. This whole part of the films feels Disnified.<br/><br/>People are also upset about the sudden death of Supreme Leader Snoke. As first, I was upset too. But then I came to the conclusion that his death was necessary to advance the sequel trilogy. The sequels are about Kylo Ren, and more specifically, the Skywalker bloodline. The most important things are the events that happen to, and are caused by Kylo Ren. Killing Snoke had only advanced his character, and thus, progressed the story of Skywalkers. If Snoke were to live into episode IX, he would become a clone of the emperor. The final scene would be Snoke laughing as Kylo Ren and Rey fight at his feet. JJ Abrams has already proved he is not afraid to reskin the original trilogy and make it his own. I would not want to see a redone Return of the Jedi.<br/><br/>I have also scene a lot of criticism of Luke's character in the film. People have said that Luke was always a voice of reason and only used violence as a last resort. He was angry, sure, when confronting the emperor but he quickly gained control of himself and tossed his lightsaber aside. (Even going against what Ben and Yoda's advice!) That is the Luke I remember and grew to respect. In TLJ, Luke becomes an almost crazy old man. We learn he premediated murdering Kylo Ren only because he "sensed" a great deal of dark energy within him. It was never like Luke to react impulsively. He was always refined and level headed. Thankfully, at the end of the film, we see an apparition of the old Luke. A positive, wise, and clever boy (man now, I guess). The way in which he uses a variation of Ben Kenobi's line from A New Hope, "Strike me down and I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine" was fantastic and shows Luke using what his wise masters have taught him. Also, Luke dying was not detrimental to the film. I feel as if giving himself up the force was the right move as it coincides with Luke's shift back to being one with the force - despite disconnecting himself from it originally.<br/><br/>I still enjoyed the film. I have yet to see a bad Star Wars movie. I just wanted to offer my opinion on the most contested parts of the film. Some things I agree with, and other things I think some people are missing the point in a bigger picture.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8193156">Expand</a></span> | |

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8064775"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">If you're a fan of the originals, you'll probably be disappointed. Horrible dialogue, no real plot line, still no background to the characters (unless you believe Kylo Ren, in which case it's a waste of a storyline), pointless filler, pointless action (crashing a ship into another to save Finn who miraculously has not a scratch on him), Leia is now Superman? I personally will not be seeing the third installment. This is clearly a case of getting you hooked in the first one, but not revealing much in the second so now you have to see the third one for closure. Only I bet there won't be any closure except in the 100's of offshoots they make as they milk the franchise for all its worth. I've only ever liked one thing that JJ Abrams has ever touched, and director Rian Johnson has shown himself to be a real jerk when interacting with fans via twitter.<br/><br/>To those who say that the originals were just as goofy, etc., yes I agree. However, kids who watched the originals back in the day are adults now, and if they wanted to do something different, they could have gone down a path to make it more "adult". An example would be Christopher Nolan's Batman vs the garbage from the late-80s & 90s. I understand Disney bought the franchise, Disney makes kids movies, yada yada, but they could have expanded their business model and broadened their portfolio.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8064775">Expand</a></span> | |

<span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8192212"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed"></span><span class="blurb blurb_expanded">Critics giving this movie a score of 85 proves 1 of 2 things.... (1) They were paid; or (2) they spend their free time fellating Rian Johnson (maybe both). This movie sucked. Plain and simple. With so many plot holes and pointless scenes and story lines, the max score should have been a 35 and that's being very generous. The can't even get the synopsis right - "Rey develops her newly discovered abilities with the guidance of Luke Skywalker" - WRONG. Luke spends the entire movie **** about the Jedi and doesn't train Rey at all. Yet she inexplicably becomes stronger. What a joke. And this is accompanied by a slow speed chase through space where the First Order simply waits for the Rebel ships to run out of gas. Yeah you read that right. Forget sending 1 or 2 of many ships ahead because the movie would have been over in 45 mins. Worst movie of 2017 and I'd be willing to bet it will be considered one of worst from this decade.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <a rel="nofollow" class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand" href="/movie/star-wars-episode-viii---the-last-jedi/user-reviews?sort-by=date&user_review_id=8192212">Expand</a></span> | |
