At least it wasn't a TOTAL copy pasta rip off of the OT like TFA was, but TLJ' was pretty bad. It was soulless, failed to stir any emotion except cringe, and had a dialogue that was written for, and perhaps by, not so bright ten year olds. Its pace was either too fast or too slow, it was unnecessarily long, and I care even less about the characters now than I did after seeing TFA. TLJ basically took a giant dump on the Luke character, it had plot holes that were just wtf, and right out of the gates was full of cringe comedy. I cant remember how many times throughout the movie I said to myself, "show, don't tell", but it was a lot.
Visually it was great, and there were some appropriately timed and executed laughs, and again, it was better than TFA...but it was not even close to recapturing the lightning that was the OT. Rogue one remains the only new star wars film to be worthy of the title.
The Last Jedi will be the last movie of this trilogy that I pay to go see.
