Star Wars: The Last Jedi Film Review


Finished watching Star Wars: The Last Jedi, directed by Rian Johnson and starring Oscar Isaac, Carrie Fisher, Daisy Ridley, Joonas Suotamo, Mark Hamill and Adam Driver. The film opens with the Resistance evacuation for their current base as the First Order has discovered their location as Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) leads an attack on the First Order to district them while General Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher) can focus on the evacuation. Meanwhile Ray (Daisy Ridley) and Chewbacca (Joonas Suotamo) have gone to find Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) in hopes to get him to return with them and help in the fight against the First Order and his former student Kylo Ren (Adam Driver). Overall this was an amazing film as it continues the main Star Wars saga (exceptionally) well as it brings back some great characters from the previous films to great effect than issue t to the way each character interacts with one another and the amount of character development that is on show which is a credit to the writers and actors. The fights scenes within are breathtaking for the way the space dogfights are plan to the close combat fights with the film going a surprisingly amount of time without showing a lightsaber helps to make the scenes feel even more suspenseful. The multiple plots within the film are blended together and give enough time for each character to have some great interactions and development of their own while also going to different locations that have not been explored before. There is also an amazing amount of comedic moments within the film as its blended in extremely well and doesn't feel force thanks to how organic the comedy comes across. 9/10.
