My heart is broken

Rating: 3/10 (14 December 2017)

If you're looking for a slapstick car crash with no heart, pathos or tension, The Last Jedi is the film for you.
So much is destroyed in the two and a half hours this film spans. Luke, the purest of heart, the one character that is seemingly impossible to ruin, is stripped of all his character and charm for no apparent reason.
Nothing in this film seems to serve a purpose. And even when we think there is some sort of plot - no! We are then told that the light and the dark are fairly interchangeable, that no side is a good side... except when in the end it matters again?
Domhnall Gleeson's character is more of a caricature, being thrown about like a rag doll, completely undermining the power of the villainous empire. Leia survives the most ridiculous explosion and exposure to space. Who is Snoke? Who is Rose? Why is every moment of possible tension destroyed by a cheap joke, making this film more like the soulless void of the Marvel franchise or a money-grabbing Disney film?
Why can none of the actors act? This film poses so many questions regarding the script, it's plot, and sadly, the industry as a whole.
Watching The Last Jedi was like watching an old friend suffer an undignified death. All I can think to do is get drunk and pretend it was a bad dream.
