The only redeeming parts of the movie were..."SPOILERS"

Rating: 2/10 (20 December 2017)

The scenes with Rey and Kylo and Snoke. But I found myself completely not interested with any of the other characters and their storylines. I seriously don't know where to start with my rant. "Spoilers ahead"
1. The Jokes.
Oh my, the jokes! In almost every scene of the Last Jedi they included some stupid joke that made me feel like I was watching a Marvel movie or something like Guardians of the Galaxy. I am not saying that those are bad movies but Star Wars should have had a darker more serious tone in my opinion. There was even a sex joke that Maz said, and it was just so cringy.
All the jokes und all the scenes that were so bad that they made me chuckle in disbelief resulted in me feeling absolutely zero suspense in the more "emotional" scenes. At times it felt like I was watching a star wars parody.
2.They destroyed their best villain
So Snoke had a really awesome introduction in TFA and there were a million fan theories about his origins and his powers and motives. And then TLJ happened and they just killed him in the middle of the movie. That was a big disapointment, since we actually got to know nothing about him in the end.
3. The 30 minutes of the casino madness
If they would have cut out that part of the movie it would have been so much better. This part was not only boring, but really badly written and - in the end - proved to be completely useless for the rest of the plot.
4. Rose
No words. Except for: forced romance. (And she has probably THE worst line of the entire movie)
5. Luke Skywalkers reason for why the Jedi "must end"
Luke's perfomance in TLJ was ...hard to watch. I'm a big star wars fan and I really wanted to like this movie but man did they ruin Skywalkers character. So he basically went into hidding because he was the reason that Ben Solo turned to the dark side and burned down the Jedi academy. They portray him as this whining coward that turned his back to the problems he's caused and his whole arc just ...doesn't feel like he is actually Luke Skywalker. They completely ruined his character. I would have liked it more if his explanation as to why the Jedi order must end had more of a spiritual meaning. If, for instance he thought that there could be no balance in the force, because it would always swing between the extremes of either the "really good" and the "really bad" and the solution to that problem would be something new, maybe a "grey" sort of Jedi. I thought that that was what they were hinting at with Rey and Kylo. Sigh.
6. The conflict between Poe and the purple-hair-lady
That was a waste of time. They just created an artificial conflict that was absolutely unnecessary since the purple-hair-lady could have just -you know- told Poe about her plans from the very beginning! And why did she wait until the transport ships were dying like flies until she suddenly comes up with the idea to crash the enemy ship?
7.Leia floating through space.
Ahh...yeah...
8. Yoda's force ghost and his lighning
I had already lost hope in the writing at this point but this scene still deserves to mentioned for how bad it was.
9. Finn's "sacrifice"...
"We can't win by destroying out enemies.. but we must safe the ones we love." The line was something like that. It was painful to watch, but also kind of fit really well to the overall logic (or lack thereof) of TLJ.
10. The ice fox solutions
All the "sudden" conflicts that arose in the second part of the movie were resolved with Deus-ex-machina or complete randomness/coincidences.
They are being traced by the first order > of course Maz knows a master hacker that can help > they fail their mission but of course there is actually an old rebel base nearby that they are headed at > they are stuck at the hideout and of course there is only one door to enter/escape > of course it turns out there is actually another escape route after all. > and of course Rey is patiently waiting at the other side of the tunnel to lift the rocks with the abilities that Luke taught her at the island (wait, he refused to teach her didn't he? But that's obviously not a problem because logic and character development don't matter. If a character needs a special abilty to further the plot the almighty writing staff of TLJ will graciously grant it to them. *Cough*Lukeandhishologram*Cough*Yodasforceghostpowers*Cough*)
Now I could go on about the things I disliked, but there is no point know is there? I have lost the hope that it is going to be an amazing and satisfying triology. What made me mad though was that I constantly thought that this mess of a movie could have easily been sorted out if they had just made some changes. There was so much wasted potential there and in the hands of a competent writer this might have been a great movie.
If they had structured TLJ more and cut out some of the millions of subplots and maybe focused on the storyline of Rey, Kylo Luke and Snoke, then I think it might have been awesome to watch. I did afterall enjoy most of their scenes, but it all was drowned out by the madness and chaos of the rest of the plot.
