The greatest teacher failure is

Rating: 6/10 (23 January 2018)

This is "Episode VIII" and the ninth film of the Star Wars trilogy. Not to give too much away, the rebels battle against the Evil Empire as Rey goes to Luke to become a Jedi and give us a fan fiction back story. "Page turners they were not."
If you are like me, you have seen the other features and knew what was going to happen in nearly every scene, because they did it before. The writing was far from unique and only special effects carried the feature. The young Vader is still a weenie as compared to Darth Vader. Rey, who has been in two films is one of the worst developed major characters. In this film we discover there was nothing spectacular about her parents. Her relationship to Obi Wan is again hinted at, but it is not confirmed. Most likely saving that for the next feature...yes it ended unfinished because snow bunnies can't fight like Ewoks. We learn that The Force operates under yin-yang principles with the possibility of Vader going good or Rey going bad...which BTW the later would make for a better film and kill the predictability. Normally films written this poorly have a shower scene.
There is a "trigger happy fly boy" and is not played by Tom Cruise. He is our Harrison Ford substitution, and is no Harrison Ford either. The writing for these new episodes is substandard. This is apparently a filler type film (like episode five or worse, 2) which is designed to get us to a climax film that will keep us on the edge of our seats....but don't hold your breath.
