An unexpected treat

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2017)

Unlike most of the reviewers on this site, who hated this movie, I love and deeply enjoyed this movie. Director Rian Johnson challenged and played off of all the ideas and expectations of star wars fans, and creates a unique story. The visuals of the movie are only matched by the emotional weight and character development. The only negative thing I would have to say about The Last Jedi is the too many comedy moments don't land. Some moments feel like a generic marvel movie. There is too much tongue in cheek humor, where it is not needed. Despite the comedic lows of this movies, the highs meet and exceed expectations. I highly recommend and would put it in my top 5 star wars movies of all time. I would also like to add one last thought... This movie is not perfect... and the original trilogy isn't perfect either... the idea behind all these movies is the experience we feel when we watch them. These movies are suppose to fun, enjoyable, and grand. I think you will find all these traits in this resent expansion on the star wars universe.
