Average Star Wars Fan review

Rating: 8/10 (11 January 2018)

So I grew up in the late 80s I missed the originals in theaters but watched them on VHS all throughout my childhood (Even the Ewoks movie) I was a teenager when I-III came out and now almost 30 I am an adult watching this new round of Star Wars movies hit the big screen. I am a bit of a fan I have played star wars video games own a couple t-shirts action figures even was Han Solo for halloween last year. I would not consider myself a hardcore fan by any means.
6 things to say about The Last Jedi:
1. Overall a great movie LOTS of action LOTS of space fights and lightsaber duels I thought it was very entertaining and was right up there with the rest of the new star wars films
2. I think it wrapped things up nicely to start of with an all "new" star wars story. Pasted the torch as they like to say.
** Spoilers**
3. There were a few weird things that at the time seemed odd. The Porgs and the crystal critters were a little weird but I get it... I feel like they have to drop some things in for the kids from time to time. I also hear the porgs were necessary to cover up the real like penguins on the island that they could not get rid of.
5. The death of Admiral Ackbar seemed way to trivial.
6. It made me want to see the next movie.
