Disappointing

Rating: 6/10 (20 December 2017)

I can understand why people are upset with the ending.
It all boils down to is it Rey's story or Luke's. From the studio's point of view it has to be Rey's so they can control what happens in the future and profit by it rather than being dictated to by the expectations of the fans.
But surely pleasing the fans would make more sense. I offer my own version of what I would have liked to have seen happen.
Luke could have ended being in great pain and distress and we do not find out how this played out at the end of the movie. Is he done for or not?
In the next instalment, despite her best efforts, Rey succumbs to Kylo Ren and joins him. They appear to be unstoppable. Luke returns for one last confrontation. He puts on one last grand effort against two younger adversaries but he appears doomed. Will Rey strike him down and end the last of the Jedi Knights?
To me this would have tied up the stories of both Rey and Luke nicely and made everyone happy...unless you are a devoted fan of Kylo Ren!
