The Farce Awakens

Rating: 2/10 (25 December 2017)

Is that headline too harsh? I am confused about the plot of The Last Jedi. What was it? In The Force Awakens the plot follows Kylo trying to obtain a map to Luke's location. It is revealed in The Last Jedi that Luke tried to kill Kylo so makes sense that Kylo is trying to find Luke but where was that in The Last Jedi? It is not mentioned at all! This film is hugely disappointing, Rey's parents, what on earth are the scriptwriters at Disney paid for?? The reveal of her parents is pathetic. This is what they should have done, she should be Luke's daughter. Her Mother should have vanished from Luke without telling him she was pregnant and he could have given her some sort of identity necklace or something similar that she passed to Rey. The other main storyline in The Force Awakens is the force awakening in Rey. It barely progresses in The Last Jedi. She spends more time holographically talking to Kylo than learning from Luke. I give this two stars because in Mark Hamill and Daisy Ridley the film has at least two stars.
