A Great Entertainment

Rating: 8/10 (31 December 2017)

I have seen a couple of DC & Marvel movies in the last few years but none of them entertained me as much as any of the Star Wars movies. All of them are very watchable with your family and kids too. And the Last Jedi is another example of that. Its prequel, The Force Awakens was quite good but this one came out a lot, lot better. The music, the action, the light vs dark drama, the performances...everything about it hooked me to my seat for the 2 hours in the theatre. Unfortunately I haven't seen any of the Star Wars from the 70's or 80's but it's been a pleasure to watch the late Carrie Fisher's performance in the Last Jedi and the prequel. The rest of the cast are also good but my favorite in the movie has been Adam Driver as Kylo Ren, especially how he struggles constantly with his conscience to destroy the Resistance forces. The effects and the camera work are brilliantly done as expected. There were some scenes especially the Jedi training scene by Luke Skywalker with Rey(very well portrayed by Daisy Ridley) or his confrontation towards the end with Kylo Ren that could have confused many viewers but maybe it's best left to our own interpretation. I especially liked how spiritual these scenes were.
I think few of the action between the First Order and the Resistance or escape by some of the Resistance characters looked a bit too unbelievable but even so, the movie as a whole more than made up for any flaw I felt.
Verdict: Absolutely loved it. Watch it with family, friends or alone and may the Force be with you :)
