Disappointing movie

Rating: 6/10 (29 December 2017)

Going into The Last Jedi, I was optimistic and excited about the film but feel that I and many fans have been let down on what it could have been.
I'll say the movie was ok, stand alone not attached to Star Wars it would be fine with good special effects and music. However the overlong story manages to not include any major character development, includes poor humour at the wrong moments and a whole story arc (30-45mins) that could be avoided if a plan was shared with a subordinate (who's about 5th in line of command at least), which is not unreasonable.
This felt to me as if Disney wanted to rip up all ties to previous films so that they can usher in further trilogies.
oh plus wealthy people bad, diversity good, animal cruelty bad (even worse than child slave labour apparently)
