Have you ever ridden a roller coaster?

Rating: 9/10 (14 December 2017)

The Last Jedi was the film that really took a 180° turn process through the film and then took another 180° turn, towards the end of it. Resulting in a 360° turn, which is inline with a roller coaster, you start where you end. This film had plenty, and yes, I meant plenty of fanfare which I can safely say unexpected. This can be a nuisance at times but when you look at it right, it was necessary. Like I said, it was a roller coaster ride. Usually, in a standard plot process, there is a climax and I repeat a climax, but this film felt that there are several climaxes. It really depends how invested are you in the character(s) of the film, be it Leia, Rey, Kylo and of course, Luke (which I believe is the main climax of the film). Indeed, a roller coaster ride which goes up, goes down, and goes up again.
In conclusion, The Last Jedi certainly played its role as a Star Wars film and yet made some bold changes to the whole "tradition" set by predecessor films. And it wasn't a deliberate change, the change is made organically by Luke through the process of the film. We the audience, just experience the process of it. I would like to quote Maz Kanata, "The belonging you seek is not behind you - it is ahead".
