STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI REVIEW

For millions of people, it will be the best Christmas present this year. Without any doubt, Star Wars The Last Jedi is in touch with the force and another milestone within the galaxy far, far away. Atmospherically, the sequel starts where The Force Awakens ended. But, moreover, it broadens the story to a next higher level.

Again, Star Wars The Last Jedi presents a sentimental, naïve, optimistic, and melancholic story and it’s fine. It’s about winning and losing, success and failure, heroism and egoism, hate, and love. The heroes are fallible, which is what makes them authentic and very likable. Besides, villains don’t just fight against the Resistance, but against their inner conflicts and own weaknesses. These traits bring them much closer to us.

WHO’S GOOD, WHO IS REALLY BAD?

The borders between good and evil become blurred. The heroes ask themselves the same questions as the audience does. How can a small group of idealists and a Jedi repel the superiority of the First Order? Furthermore, who is the last Jedi?

Star Wars The Last Jedi is brimming with emotions, adventurous action, and a terrific sense of humor. With a smart use of puns and delicate gestures, Rian Johnson fascinates the audience and makes them laugh at the same time.
