I saw it, meh. Funny was the critic\fanboy disconnect....90%+ on Rotten tomatoes with critics and a middling 50% with actual people who buy the tickets. I speculate, Hollywood and critics who make money of the system are really scared that Amazon\Netflix will put them out of business. They wanted so bad to make this the next Citizen Kane..which it clearly isn’t. The director’s biggest resume bullet point...”Looper”...huh?, an almost direct to video Bruce Willis crapfest made before smartphones or Obama.

Last Jedi is a dog, it’s a hair better then the prequels and much worse than Episode 8 and the the older movies. The humor in the movie actually made it feel like Spaceballs. Please save your money, the movie sucks.

“much worse than Episode 8”

Isn’t this one Episode 8?

See 27.... That’s the real problem with this film... There are tons of things execution that can be nit picked... but the bigger problem was CONCEPTUAL..... And its the Conceptual shift that will harm the franchise in the long run.

Yes, Looper was so **&*^ stupid! Had potential and I live Bruce Willis, but it was a total crap fest.
