Apologies for starting this debate up again but I really wanted to like this movie and I've even tired convincing myself i can by watching it three times but imo it's just too impossibly bad, lol. I love Looper & Brick but the Last Jedi is all over the place with it's tone, everyone fails at whatever they're needlessly trying to accomplish while the choices, omg the choices each character makes just do not make any sense which takes me completely out of the movie experience.
I feel Rian Johnson tries to be unconventional for all the wrong reasons and decided to make everything that is different in the story relatively pointless. Other then the awesome lightsaber battle in the throne room it's actually the worst thing a movie can be and that is boring.
I don't even understand why Disney & Co. thought it would be a good idea to hire three different writers/directors to create what is suppose to be a coherent & connected trilogy. Understandably each director would want to put their own imprint on the movie they're in charge of but obviously that only creates incohesive story telling as is clearly shown between the Force Awakens and the Last Jedi.
Very disappointing 😞
