I honestly feel like I'm taking cazy pills!

I am not new to Star Wars. I grew up with it as a kid, I've read about a dozen post-ROTJ novels (now non-canon), and I even played the Star War CCG card game just because it was Star Wars. Put simply, I am flabbergasted by the overwhemingly positive reviews of this film and the Force Awakens. I just don't get it. The first 3rd of the Last Jedi is outright boring. During the second 3rd I started to have hope. There were some good twists and it really seemed to get moving. Then it all falls apart. There was more than one moment where I found myself saying "You mean you could have done that this whole time, and you waited until now?"
At least the Last Jedi is it's own story instead of a soft reboot, but I only give it 3 stars for the middle stretch of about 30 minutes.The rest of it was so disappointing. But again, what is everyone else seeing that I am not?
