Best of the Star Wars franchise

Rating: 9/10 (19 December 2017)

The Last Jedi is, in my humble opinion, the best of the Star Wars franchise. I saw trailers of the first Star Wars film even before it hit the big screen back in the 70's, and that one I felt held the title, until now. This story is overall well-developed, and I really liked that they built up the character of Luke Skywalker and made him very relevant again after so many years with him missing from the films. There is good emotion, heartfelt, and the fight scenes with Ben Solo are gritty and angry and filled with a lot of passion. Overall, I feel that the creators and the actors put a real nice spin on this ball, giving the viewer and life-long fans, such as myself, closure on aspects of the this story which have been hanging there for decades. And, no spoilers, it's set up for more sequels.
