The wife and I actually originally planed on seeing it opening weekend , but the theater we like to go to was sold out way in advanced , but it turned out for the best , my brother came down for Christmas , so we got got to go with him and his wife
I mention this , because this is the 4th Star Wars movie we've seen together , most noticeably , we saw the original Star Wars together , I was like 12 , and he was like 6
and now , 40 years later , there we were again Saturday night , a couple little kids watching Star Wars
The Last Jedi
8/10
for now , but I'm sure that rating will fluctuate over time after multiple viewings and how it fits into Episode IX
but for the time being
8/10
The first two things I want to say is that I actually really liked this movie alot , and.....................I just didn't understand it at all
****** Typical Spoilers Ahead ****************
Captain Phasma , other then that she looked cool , but what the heck was the point of her character , other then toy sales ? , she's hardly in both movies combined
Snoke , I actually thought Snoke was kinda cool , for the whole 5 minutes he's in the film as well , did think it was pretty clever how Kylo Ren kills him though , it was also nice to see that Elite Praetorian Guard's could put up at least a little bit of a fight
Luke Skywalker , just as whiny as ever , thought the fight with Kylo Ren was also pretty clever though , , but I knew something was up as soon as he showed up because he was clearly a younger version of himself from when he was on the island with Rey , still don't know why he had to fade away there at the end
Muppet Yoda , I mean , how cool was that
Princess Leia , what happened to her spunk ?,really disliked what they did to her character in both movies , I mean I understand they wanted to show the weight of the responsibility she's had over the years , but they did a basic 180 with her character , instead of being all excited about seeing Carrie Fisher back on screen , she mostly just bummed me out
Finn , I liked him better here then I did in Force Awakens
Poe Dameron , not a fan
General Hux , love this guy , so glad they haven't killed him off yet
Kylo Ren and Rey , can't wait to see more
Rose Tico , a welcomed addition to the universe , looking forward to seeing more of her as well
Toro , I really thought he would do right by the end of the movie , aka Lando Calrissian , well , maybe next movie
Overall I've enjoyed both Force Awakens and Last Jedi ,
