Review of Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) by Aron W — 18 Jun 2018
Worst movie to exist in Star Wars theatrical history. The first third of the movie was utter nonsense, the core of the movie undermines one of the greatest heroes of the last 30 years in an elaborate character assassination.
The new characters are pointless distractions that ultimately achieve nothing that couldn't have been done more effectively without them, and the characters returning from episode 7 spend more time running in circles than anything else.
Every promising story arc from episode 7 is promptly dropped in as anticlimactic a fashion as possible. Bottom line, if you're looking for a Star Wars story that subverts your expectations while also having a female lead, you're better off with Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords.
