This trilogy should be left forever forgotten

Rating: 1/10 (24 August 2018)

I had high hopes for this trilogy. I was definitely wishing it would level up with the other episodes. Sure the prequel trilogy wasn't as perfect as the original one but it was still very watchable and entertaining.
When Force Awakens was released, I was disappointed but I was willing to give that trilogy another chance. When Rogue One was released, I was even more enthusiastic but then came the Last Jedi....
Let's be honest: this trilogy is dead. There's no way you can save it as Ryan Johnson blew it into oblivion. The most mind blowing is it wasn't supposed to be that way as JJ Abrams was initially the one in charge once again. His first movie was far from perfect but at least he left us with a momentum, if correctly exploited, could have given us one great episode.
But what we didn't expect was Ryan Johnson and Kathleen Kennedy hijacking that movie to turn it into a feminist platform at the price of EVERYTHING else.
Don't bother if the story doesn't stand, if our beloved characters are trashed alongside their legacy or if there is a large dose of childish humor which is making everyone facepalming.
And please don't care about the millions of fans who came to see the movie full of expectation, who passed the last two years fomenting plots in their own mind hoping the movie would give the answer they wished to hear!
Forget about all the rules and story frame set by the previous movies. All of it has vanished in the blink of an eye. Now you can destroy starships by ramming them at light speed, shoot missiles at a shielded bridge and a hangar and still blow it into piece. Now space is full of oxygen and gravity, enabling Leia into transforming herself as Mary Poppins and fly down to her command ship bridge which was destroyed a few seconds ago.
And most of all, now you can have Rey. A female nobody who is as perfect as you could ever be. She can shoot down 3 tie fighters in one single shot despite never shooting a gun turret before, teach a lesson to the great Jedi master Luke Skywalker about hope and resilience (yeah we're talking about the one who achieved to turn his own evil father because he saw a spark of good hidden deeply within his dad), move a mountain of rocks without training etc. If you wish to get some answers about where her tremendous power comes from, forget it as you'll get none. As far as I'm concerned, she's the very definition of a Mary Sue and this movie engraved her legacy as such into stone.
Talking about useless characters, let's chat about Holdo and Rose. The first one is a purple haired female who achieved to reach the position of an admiral despite nothing to show for. Her only background is some obscure battle nobody heard of. We don't know anything about it nor whatever accomplishment she may have done to deserve such promotion. Her skills sucks as her poor decisions mainly leads to the destruction of the Resistance fleet. She's the one scolding Poe, who we were able to see how talented and brave he is throughout TFA, just because he wants to know more about her plans which push him to take the matters on his own hand which makes the situation only worse. But at the end she's the one who is right and somehow Poe is ridiculed. Talk about ridicule.
Rose, on her hand, well I don't really understand why she's in that movie because she has no purpose except taking the light off Finn. I liked Finn in the first movie, he made me remembering of Han Solo as he always seems to head into trouble but always finds a way to get out of it with a lot of luck and well some braveness. There was a lot of potential to exploit about him but like Poe with Holdo, he's nothing but the sidekick of that little chubby Asian woman who is more irritating than anything else. The worst is when Finn finally decides to be a hero and is about to sacrifice his own life to save the Resistance, Rose suddenly appears to thwart his attempt, crashing down into his pod then when asked about why did she do that, she only answer that love is everything at the end. While she's giving him the kiss, the door protecting the resistance is blown away taking away all its hope of survival. I was sinking in my seat when I watched this, facepalming all around!
Besides all that, the main story is nothing but a boring pointless chase without any event. There's nothing to put you on the edge of your seat, just two big turtle ships slowly moving away from each other.
Yes this is not Star Wars anymore and this whole trilogy should be put to rest and forgotten. It has turned into an horrible joke and it's sad and very heartbreaking.
If I have a advice for you, It would be to just keep focusing on the two previous trilogies alongside Rogue One which is not that bad. Those seven movies are the REAL Star Wars. About that sham of a trilogy, you should just forget it even pretend it doesn't exist. If you have already watched it, try to erase it from your memory. I know it's gonna be hard to forget such a butchery but that's for your own good.
