Don't focus on the slew of negative reviews here. If you look closely, they're all duplicates and sometimes even more of the same reviews by the same people. That being said, you should see the movie and formulate your own opinion.
I love Star Wars and always held the saga as sacred. I didn't mind the prequels, though I know they can't hold a candle to the original trilogy. The Last Jedi is a fantastic continuation of The Force Awakens and it's important to go into it knowing that it is a "middle" movie. There are parts of it that may be shocking or confusing, but much like how Empire had Jedi to reinforce its message, The Last Jedi will have episode IX to reinforce its own message. It's hard to right a true review without giving a lot away, but I can tell you that it is a very long movie with a lot going on amongst all the characters. But even with all that, there was never a moment where I thought "this is dull". It's all told through excellent story-telling and I look forward to seeing how this trilogy can conclude.
