I enjoyed The Last Jedi. My only real complaint was Leia's space floating scene. I thought it was cool that they showed her using the Force, but not to defy death in a moment when she should have had no chance of survival. Initially I thought it was an acceptable way for her to die, then she woke up and I started to cringe. Then she started using the force and I though, cool, but this shouldn't be happening.
I also think they missed a good opportunity to kill Leia and have Leia make the sacrifice to make the jump to hyper space into the First Order's ship instead of Holdo, but I get it, since they were initially planning on Leia being alive for the 9th installment and that wasn't how they filmed the scenes when Carrie Fisher was alive.
I see what others are complaining about, and I can understand some of the complaints, but I could also see good reasoning why the rest of the movie was done they way it was.
I'm saddened about Luke. I figured he would die, and when it showed him meditating at the end I was happy that he lived, and then he became one with the Force and I became sad.
