Review of Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) by Redhotkurt — 22 Dec 2017

I enjoyed the prequels more than The Last Jedi, and that saddens me. I wanted to like this film in spite of its awkwardly Whedon-ish dialogue and tv-like plot, but the visual effects and camera work (which were just above average --.

Strange considering TLJ was the most anticipated movie of 2017) were not enough to sway me. It wasn't an enjoyable film, mostly because the main characters were written as unlikable, miserable jerks. Where's all the mystery, excitement, and fun? Aren't Star Wars movies supposed to be fun? Perhaps I missed the memo.
