He looks good and Andy Serkis portrays him beautifully but he is criminally underused and even more wronged by a far too easy and anti-climactic defeat. Can also understand the outrage at the rather one-dimensional and out of character, even with the self-doubt, torment and regret, treatment of Luke. Despite Mark Hamill objecting to this treatment, it does not show in his nuanced performance that ranks among his best recent work. As well as some of the humour, some of it was forced and out of place in being placed randomly at less than appropriate times.
However, for all those faults, there is also a lot to like about 'The Last Jedi'. It does have enough to satisfy the nostalgic while, like 'The Force Awakens', having its own identity. While it certainly dazzles in spectacle and action, 'The Last Jedi' doesn't feel too big, too noisy or too chaotic fans will disagree with this and that's fine at the expense of brains or heart. Of the characters, Rey and Ren are especially well realised and it is their subplot that is particularly successful of the storytelling.
For all its unevenness and reservations about it trying to do too much, that it is a richer and more elaborate experience, with a deeper and darker perspective on space fantasy allegory and the condition of humans and aliens, than the previous 'Star Wars' films was appreciated.
Visually, 'The Last Jedi' is a triumph. It is gorgeously shot and designed and benefits with some very imaginative and energetic visual storytelling. The special effects are a dazzling marvel. John Williams delivers yet another rousing score that has its own character but cleverly includes the well-known iconic themes from the previous films.
Enough of the dialogue is thought-provoking and entertaining, while Rey's journey, Ren's conflict, the scenes between Rey and Luke and the Rey and Ren subplot are handled very well. The action is thrilling, particularly the knockout final showdown. When it comes to the acting, despite not liking their characters' treatment there is no fault to be found with Hamill and Serkis as aforementioned. Daisy Ridley gives another winning performance and is more comfortable this time round.
John Boyega is charismatic and Carrie Fisher's final performance has a nostalgic poignancy. With Ren being even more of a conflicted villain than in 'The Force Awakens', Adam Driver brings more menace and conflicted edge. In summary, good but not amazing.
Kylo Ren Adam Driver is conflicted about his dark side. I am left with a lot of nitpicks that don't add up to much and one big observation. This could be the most dangerous Star Wars. First, let's start with some of the nitpicks. There is a lot of humor in this movie. I appreciate it sometimes but there are some serious issues being pushed in this movie and the humor at times clashes. There is some melodrama and sometimes the scenes push too hard.
For example, Rose's amulet gets a lot of screen time. It's interesting what happens with Benicio del Toro but sometimes the movie does not need to linger on that pendent. The little kids forced to work the stables can be too much. I'm sure Rian Johnson got the idea from kids being forced to ride racing camels. It would be helpful to have more than just kids in indentured servitude. It becomes too obvious in a bad way.
The kamikaze run is cool but the question becomes why they didn't do that with the other ships or in the other movies. The Porgs are the Porgs and I'm resigned to the Christmas gifting motive. I either understand or reluctantly accept each one and more of these little annoyances.
The overarching observation I have is a lot more uncertain. Rian Johnson is playing with the Star Wars sensibilities and its ultimate outcome is very much in doubt.
It makes this a most dangerous Star Wars movie. The central idea of good versus evil is under attack. Benicio del Toro plays a criminal who talks a bit of truth to the audience. He essentially equates both sides. As long as there is war, the weapons dealers win and the people lose. Ghost Yoda literally burns down the Jedi religion. Skywalker's one moment of failure is also a direct shot at his character. Johnson is given new emperor Snoke and he promptly kills him off.
Rei's parentage is given as nobodies. The question becomes whether that is the truth. In some of the most spectacular places on the coast from the very tip of Donegal to Clare and Cork cliffs the film continues with the epic story of Rey Luke and their battle against the dark since the films from Cork and Kerry to Clare and Donegal are also chosen for the movie..
