Star Wars: The Last Jedi

PG-13
Rian Johnson (Director)
Daisy Ridley, Mark Hamill, Adam Driver
Sci-Fi/Adventure

Rey develops her newly discovered abilities with the guidance of Luke Skywalker, who is unsettled by the strength of her powers. Meanwhile, the Resistance prepares for battle with the First Order. (IMDB Synopsis)

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is a wonderful continuation from The Forces Awakens. It's great to see Rey, Poe et al. back again. However, for me, the standout in this film is Adam Driver as Kylo Ren. His character is definitely one of the most fascinating and complex 'bad guys' ever, and I cannot wait to see how his story will conclude in the final film. The Last Jedi offers all the action and adventure you would expect from a Star Wars movie. There were a few lulls in the action when I thought they could have upped the pacing a little, but otherwise this was a brilliant movie. 4.5 stars
