I honestly liked it

Rating: 7/10 (12 November 2018)

It is the fact that the presence of the Disney company is clearly felt in the film. It is also a fact that the story has more holes and illogicalities than the previous parts of the franchise and that at times it is over-the-top ridiculous. And it's also the fact that, while watching the movie, I did not pay attention to any of this at all, because I completely enjoyed the entertainment. Only later, when I was browsing reviews on the internet (which almost unanimously rate this movie one or two out of ten), with every argument I read I was rewinding the movie in my head and realizing that the criticism is valid. But even though the things haters wrote about it are accurate, I really liked this movie. If not with the story, with audio-visual experience and even overall atmosphere, "The Last Jedi" quite satisfactory respected the legacy and spirit of the franchise. It took it a little time to catch the momentum, but when it really started it kept me at the edge of my seat till the end. Comic reliefs may be too frequent and exaggerated for hard-core fans of the franchise, but, in my opinion, they are quite good and have excellent timing. Yes, they give this movie a bit of "Guardians of the Galaxy" kind of feeling (Marvel is also Disney), but as I like "Guardians" more than original "Star Wars", it just made it more enjoyable for me.
7/10
