My personal favorite Star Wars movie

Rating: 10/10 (10 April 2018)

I consider myself to be a die-hard Star Wars fan, so I was there opening night for The Last Jedi and I will never forget the experience I had in the theater that night surrounded by other true fans who were blown away by this movie.
I understand that there is a VERY vocal part of the fandom online that does not like this movie, and actually truly hates it. This is completely fine. When I first encountered this, I was shocked and angry myself that people would hate this movie. I can understand the anger at certain things people were expecting that didn't happen in this movie, but I loved that. It's just a matter of difference in opinion and difference in interpretations of this movie.
Personally, I think this movie is the BEST in the series overall. I think the overall narrative that this movie tells and the underlying messages are extremely powerful and make it the most complex Star Wars movie to date. The acting, cinematography, score, etc are all just top-notch.
After watching The Last Jedi for the sixth time, I can absolutely say it's my absolute favorite.
