The Last Jedi has ruined the Franchise and ruined my faith in accurate reviews.

Rating: 1/10 (22 February 2018)

Just before the movie was released, I saw a plethora of overwhelmingly positive critical reviews. I was genuinely excited to see this movie. I thought how can so many reviews get this wrong?
I went to the theater with a few friends and got ready to enjoy the film. Unfortunately, that was the end of my anticipation and excitement.
The movie was one of the biggest disappointments of any previous film I've seen.
The film was dragged out, riddled with plot holes and ridiculous moments. It's filled with SJW political innuendos, and deflates the build up of Luke Skywalker's return with it's bad storytelling.
1) Poe/ Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo sub plot is ridiculous. Instead of explaining her idiotic plan from the beginning she lets Poe run around like a fool, the people on the ship fear for their lives, and goes so far as to allow Poe to enact an almost successful mutiny, just so Holdo can dismissed Poe and make him look inferior to the her. On top of that, Holdo's 'grand' plan to hide on a planet is a failure as they end up bottle-necked and likely massacred if it wasn't for Luke Skywalker.
2) Leia flying through space--Instead of poignantly killing her--they keep her alive in a laugh out loud moment where she flies hovers through the vacuum of space.
3) The whole 'Capitalism is Bad' planet that ultimately was not needed.
4) Luke Skywalker's failure to see the good in Kylo. While it's interesting to see a Luke that has been weathered down by failure--its predictable (Obi-Won) and was done in a bad way. You don't see much of the brilliance and mystique a Jedi once represented. Instead, you see an incredibly bitter old man that would rather let his family and friends die over his 'I hate everything' attitude. Furthermore, it goes against the entire build up of the previous trilogies and against his character. Luke was meant to be the chosen one--he was meant to overcome the dark side and restore order to the galaxy.
5) Rey's big reveal is....just bad. Yes, Anakin was a slave, Luke grew up a 'nobody'--but to emphasis that point without any further development to why that is the case is more bad writing.
6) Snoke's anti-climactic ending. While him dying midway in is a change of predictability--it is done in such a poor fashion. Firstly, he should not have died so easily given his previous show of ability. Secondly, they offered NO character development as to why he was doing the things he did.
Anyway, I could go on and on about the various points within the film that are a failure--but I won't.
In summation, this is a bad movie, bolstered by inaccurately suspicious critical r and non-critical seemingly botted reviews that favor pushing a particular political agenda despite weak writing and shoddy character development.
