Everywhere you went, you heard people complaining about The Last Jedi. Real life, the internet, everywhere.

I didn't. Most of my immediate circle of friends and family, which includes about two dozen Star Wars nerds, enjoyed or loved the movie. A couple had pretty mixed feelings about it, and, yes, a couple didn't like it, but I never personally saw the sort of universal derision that people seem to claim exists for this movie.

And that's not my personal bias colouring things either. Because I love the Matrix sequels (the third movie in particular) and I know precisely one other person who shares my opinions on them; most of those same friends I referenced above hate said sequels, so you'll never hear me argue that they're well-liked.

I contrast this with the prequels.Literally no one I know liked those films; some people found either Episode I or Episode III (but, curiously, never both of them) tolerable, but that was about as high as the praise got.

Again, I'm not saying TLJ is universally beloved or anything, but based purely on my own personal experiences I wouldn't doubt what those articles are saying.
