Good entertainment, in parts bad Star Wars

Rating: 8/10 (21 December 2017)

Well, it is almost Impossible to match the sky-high expectations of a new Star Wars movie. The Last Jedi is good entertainment and it has epic moments. The Kylo\Rey relationship is developed well and provides some surprises.The space battles are enjoyable, especially in 3D, for example the attack of the Resistance bombers.
However the plot is full of flaws and some characters are wasted.
I don't want zu see a depressed Luke. This is Star Wars and shouldn't mirror daily life. I fully understand Mark Hamill's frustration. Skywalker deserved a better fate. Equally bizarre ist how Johnson handled Snoke.Abrams' TFA wasn't perfect but it gave us a new fascinating villain.For two years people speculated about his origin and how he fits into the Star Wars Universe.And then Johnson kills him off?! He should have talked to Gareth Edwards to learn how to treat this universe well .Instead he just gives fans a punch in the face.
Nevertheless, I enjoyed most of the movie. To give a film two stars I have to be bored and with all due respect to some of the previous writers this is totally exaggerated!
