The force awakens was just a modern injection of contemporary reflection. It served as a mechanism to reinvigorate the franchise. It was safe. It was a blockbuster and not a blockbuster Star Wars movie. It doesn't share what the original has or Indiana Jones, aliens, etc. What makes Star Wars is the movie magic, the escape. The last Jedi is back on that track.
It has the locales, the characters and it brings the environment alive. Watch and you see that rain makes the environment in which the characters live, move. He just adds so much detail, it deepens the viewers investment. That was the magic of the original. It was an escape and not just a movie. Sure the movie has some flaws, but everything does when you look hard enough.
This felt like the old days and not just for Disney's pockets. I'm glad Johnson is the new face of Star Wars.
