Heroes inspire others to be greater. I think that is what "The Last Jedi" does best.

Rating: 9/10 (6 January 2020)

Rey develops her newly discovered abilities with the guidance of Luke Skywalker, who is unsettled by the strength of her powers. Meanwhile, the Resistance prepares for battle with the First Order.
I will admit I am wired with a with the sense of melancholy sensibilities. I lost track of how many times i wiped a tear while watching Rian Johnson's film. But I'm sure I also laughed hard just as many times, if not more. It is in general mind-blowing, it is emotional and it is filled with surprises. The Last Jedi really manages to keep the Star Wars spirit while being innovative on many fronts. Nothing can prepare you for the emotional ride it takes you on. It's a truly epic journey.
Star Wars: Episode VIII had some amazing set pieces. Wonderful cinematography and special effects. the 3D presentation added to the film. The fabulous film score from the greatest film composers of all time, John Williams as splendid.
The acting from Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher are sublime. Tapping into my sense of nostalgia for Star Wars Saga. Daisy Ridley as Rey tremendous. Johnson eloquently deepens his characters in the story long, long ago in the galaxy far, far away. Adam Driver is welcome strength returning as the Dark Side Force's Kylo Ren. The other narrative threads are often perfunctory in the subplot with Resistance fighters Finn, played by solid John Boyega, Poe Dameron, played by intrepid Oscar Isaac, and Rose, played by stellar newcomer Kelly Marie Tran. And how does't like Benicio Del Toro ? Fantastic !
The Last Jedi is clever, well-tailored and genuine. Heroes and villains, and those who are somewhere in between. Rian Johnson created a beautiful tale a filmed it with stylistic brilliance and terrific pacing. From the excellent cinematography, snappy dialogues and first rate music, The Last Jedi makes you feel overwhelmed and fills you with odd admiration for the story that is being conveyed. 9/10
