Review of Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) by Susan C — 12 Jun 2018

While it's another dazzling special effects movie with a team of thousands of animators and the budget to match, the characters lost some of their integrity and core. The disgruntled Luke, Rey's insane Jedi gifts without any real training, and many other inconsistencies caused the movie to plod on longer than it needed to be.

We're left with a completely broken rebellion, most of our favorite characters dead, and only the idea that this insane battle will go on forever without ever really conquering the Empire. Knowing that is the case makes any future episodes a bore.

Not the best feeling leaving a movie, and certainly not even close to the campy ending of the original Star Wars, but it's still fun to watch 40 years later. The Last Jedi won't be remembered in the same way.
