Disney produces rubbish and is rewarded with £ 1 billion.

Rating: Null/10 (7 January 2018)

Following on from a poor, uninspired rehash of A New Hope ( The Force Awakens), The Last Jedi puts the final nail in the coffin of a once cherished movie franchise. The plot is bizarre, erratic, but ultimately fairly dull. The acting in the movie is generally poor, with Daisy Ridley delivering lines about " the force" that genuinely made the me cringe and wince in my seat. A Star Wars film without a lightsaber fight is like a comedy film without jokes (What's the point ?). I found myself genuinely not caring if Finn killed himself by driving into a laser beam. A sentiment I shared with all the characters in this film. The trotting out of the old cast (Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher) once again demonstrated a true lack of creativity and imagination. Attributes that ought to be in abundance at a company founded on them (Disney). It saddens me to think that the children of today will not be able to experience the same sense of excitement that I felt when growing up with Star Wars movies. Disney have effectively capitalised on the propensity for young children to like lightsabers and on the nostalgia of Star Wars fans. This means that they can produce 1-dimensional , uninspired films and gross over £1 billion.
