Loose ends left over from The Force Awakens were seemingly tied up, new characters and planets were introduced, and the war between the Resistance and the First Order raged on with two action-packed battle sequences, yet there were one or two sore points that displeased a vast number of viewers, particularly the portrayal of Luke Skywalker and Rey’s unexplained powers. While it’s poised to make $1.2 billion worldwide, Star Wars: The Last Jedi has fared rather poorly with many fans, especially those who feel that Rian Johnson’s installment betrays what’s come before. 5 for the movie -3 because it's star wars and nearly a total excercise in plagiarism by Abrams.This article contains major Star Wars: The Last Jedi spoilers. Plenty of toys to be bought i guess,to rekindle some of that 40bn. The script could've been put together by a fan, it was that bad. I just didn't care who was doing what half an hour in. LOL Zero character development meant you had little empathy for the good guys, a fundamental need in filmaking. Although the screenplay definitely did not help. The Antagonist just came across as a termpermental emo with parental issues, i am absolutely stunned at the casting of him. Although the screenplay definitely did not An amateurish cash grab attempt which works well due to the franchised fan base, i honestly don't know where to begin. … ExpandĪn amateurish cash grab attempt which works well due to the franchised fan base, i honestly don't know where to begin. Accordingly, while no movie is perfect, it gets a 10 from me. Episode VII is certainly a great indicator for things to come, leaving you craving more with its phenomenal ending and, even still, it provides a triumphant, hugely satisfying adventure on its own, realising my hopes as a fan, and surpassing them. And here we are, launched back into two and a half hours of sheer brilliance, with all of the magic, wit and fun which made the original trilogy what it was. How I’ve missed the magic of this galaxy, far, far away. The Force Awakens is a sequel worth waiting 30 years for (and it is, make no mistake, the best Star Wars movie since at least 1983), with a stellar cast (Ridley and Driver shine, but every new and old face alike command the screen and so obviously want to be there, and that brings the whole thing to life) incredible direction and smart writing and stunning aliens, visuals, and great characters- all of which are so fresh and unique with the perfect blend of old and new it injects life into this universe sometimes just by aesthetic, with Chewie, Han and C390 still bringing the laugh, while new additions like BB-8 cement themselves as worthy, the quirky droid destined to be a fan favourite and loved as only two droids ever have been. But for everything that didn’t quite sit right- of which there aren’t many- there were a plethora of other things which Abrams and his crew perfectly hit the target with. All due respect and admiration to George Lucas for creating the Star Wars universe, but JJ Abrams truly seems to understand what made the originals so damn good better than Lucas himself- intrigue. In short, The Force Awakens is an enormous triumph, a return to the ways of the original trilogy, and, specifically, what made them so loved, and so good. All “This will begin to make things right.” So speaks Max Von Sydow in the first words of The Force Awakens and how appropriate that is. “This will begin to make things right.” So speaks Max Von Sydow in the first words of The Force Awakens and how appropriate that is.
