Review of Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) by Doug R — 15 Jan 2018

Yick, what an atrocious movie. I too created an account just so I can give a voice to what was wrong with this movie. This was a pretty movie that had Star Wars music, but it was not a Star Wars movie. The rules in that galaxy that we've come to expect no longer apply. There is corny humor throughout and characters acting contrary to their personalities. But, the most offensive part was the social commentary. I could have done without the preaching and heavy-handed poltical issues.

Since this movie was an obvious attempt at feminism propaganda, I'll discuss it by gender...spoilers follow.

Men.

Luke - slightly deranged, cranky and weak.

Poe - impulsive, brash hothead.

Snoke - weak and stupid.

Finn - empty and cowardly.

Kylo Ren - petulant, moody and destructive.

Hux - a joke.

Women.

Leia - fearless, wise, can fly.

Holdo - smarter than all the men.

Rey - most powerful Jedi ever.

Rose - worst character/actor ever portrayed in any movie, ever.

Droids and Chewbacca - a mere prop who shared a combined total of about 5 minutes of screen time.

None of the intriguing questions that the Force Awakens were addressed in any satisfactory way. Rules of space and gravity don't apply. Jedi lore and legacy trashed. Scenes that should've ended up on the cutting floor occupy a bulk of time. Time wasted on pointless, tedious scenes that go nowhere. Characters that annoy and spout SJW nonsense (ROSE = JAR JAR BINKS level annoying).

Really, just a terrible installment of what should have been an amazing story.
