Liked it more then a new hope 2.0 less than rogue one and a lot more than solo. So that puts it around 5th best star wars movie.

space leia is the only thing that bothers me. It's a silly scene and given the unfortunate early death of carrie, bringing her back just irks me a little.

The rest of the major complaints don't bother me. The casino world doesn't bother me since it still sets up the spread of the resistance. I don't care who reys parents are and would rather it be someone not from a previous movie. Everything in the entire universe doesn't need to be about the Skywalker blood line. The hyper jump scene is beautiful. And Luke's ending isnt great, but its fine.

Some things have grown on me, namely Kylo and Reys story arc. But that still doesnt outweigh the trash tier writing of Rose, Holdo, and everything involving the Canto Bight subplot. Not to mention the insult to what Luke Skywalker used to be in terms of his convictions, and how horribly they treated Poe and Hux. Then theres Snokes waste of an existence. Beyond that I just genuinely hate the themes the movie shoves in your face. The repeated failure theme is so hammered in that literally nothing succeeds as planned in the entire movie. Nothing. You just dont write a movie like that, lol. All it is, is endless subversion, which is pretty stupid. Lastly I hate the anyone can be a hero theme it has going on, because thats clearly Disney trying to modify the entire Star Wars story to fit their general themes. SW has always been about Destiny whether the prequels or OT.

but the movie was pretty, I guess, save for the Marry Poppins effects for Leia.

Id honestly put it below every other SW movie except maybe episode 2.

It's still in the top 5 all-time Star Wars movies. I don't know exactly where I'd place it. There was a period during which I'd say it as second only to Empire, but over time the rankings are settling down. I might actually like TFA a little better than TLJ, if only because the lightsaber fight in TFA was really cool.

A beautiful mess

Contains some of the highest highs of the series but also some low lows

It's a weirdly paced movie though

I think it's a pretty boring, uninteresting movie on its own, but as a Star Wars movie it's among the worst made. As part of a trilogy it's the worst Star Wars film made because it destroyed everything done in the previous movie and made a fulfilling conclusion impossible. It effectively ruined three movies, whereas no matter how bad/cheesy 1 and 2 were they had a coherent plot that flowed into the next movie in their trilogy.

When I first saw it, I thought it was on par with The Force Awakens. So an okay Star Wars movie. But my opinion changed pretty quickly the more I thought about it. I would say it's easily the worst Star Wars movie. The only thing I liked about it was the Royal Guard fight, and I suppose the Kylo/Rey moments in general. I don't think it's ever worth watching again.

It was almost as bad as those dumb TDKR haters who threw a fit over a throwaway line about it taking nine minutes to download or about Batman walking on ice like he hadn't literally been shown training on ice earlier in the trilogy.

Did people really complain about the ice walking

Like TDKR was a dumb movie but how could you complain about that part

Because you want very badly for the movie to have no redeeming qualities.

It's a dumpster fire that nearly single-handedly ruined the sequel trilogy. The film is so bad that someone is using it as an example of what not to do when writing a screenplay.

Mandalorian is insanely worth watching. Even if you had never seen Star Wars in your life or hated the entire series. Mandalorian is good enough 100% on its own to watch. You are doing your self a disservice skipping it.

Really liked it, honestly. It was the first Star Wars film that took a lot of risks and did a lot of different things.

2nd best film in the franchise, just slightly behind Force Awakens.

Seen it about 3 times to give it a chance and it ended up getting worse and worse after each subsequent viewing.

It's hard to find anything redeemable about it except Mark Hamill, Adam Driver's performance, and Chewbacca w/porgs.

Yet he doesn't specify any specific aspect of the script that is "bad."

I've taken several screenwriting classes and have written short films. The film has issues, but it's far from bad.

I didn't hate it when I saw it opening night. Snoke getting taken out was unexpected but I didn't mind it. I didn't think Luke's character was assassinated like a lot of people did simply because 30 years can change the fuck out of a person so it made sense that he'd be the way he was to me.

When I watched it on Blu Ray after reading about how terrible people thought it was for months, I too started to hate it.

But I watched it again about a month ago and you know what? It wasn't that bad. I did dislike the entire casino planet subplot but everything else was fine.

I'm actually looking forward to RoS.
