The Last Jedi Way Off Course

Rating: 1/10 (11 March 2018)

I'm 48 years old and have been a major fan of Star Wars since the beginning. JJ Abrams started it off with "The Force Awakens" and even though I thought it was a partial rip-off of the original films, I liked it. The Last Jedi is not just a bad Star Wars film, it's just a bad film altogether. The slap-stick comedy throughout the movie didn't fit with SW tradition, putting a halt on any type of momentum you may have had. The CGI was the worse of all the films, especially the cockpit scenes. 1978's "Battlestar Galactica" was more believable. IMO Rogue One was the best film of the entire series due to it's grit and serious story line. Everything felt REAL and the little humor it had, was very subtle and fit seamlessly. I will give credit to all the actors, which did a wonderful job. It's too bad they had this script to work with. :(
