Worth a second viewing, seriously.

Rating: 9/10 (28 August 2018)

My initial reaction to my first watch of Johnson's entry into the Star Wars series, shall we say? Was not good.
Although watching a second time the message becomes clearer, it's like my eyes have been opened. Last Jedi is a story about finding place in the Universe, and the journey of finding yourself along the way, that answers to these questions are not easy.
And how others actions inspire the next generation to come without being forgotten.
It's message and Reys Destiny are very much the same. If Luke had returned to the Resistance/Rebellion to fight again that would have been predictable, Luke got himself out of the way from the galaxy, because he thought it was the best thing to do.
But his actions actually inspire others to do better.
It's a different kind of Star Wars film that we've never seen before, it's very cool and very new.
But with Abrams returning for the third episode in the trilogy, it's a question now of what he'll do. Will he keep Rian's narrative going on throughout, or will he abandon it altogether?
Very interesting.
