Our take on Star Wars: The Last Jedi
Rian Johnson's 2017 chapter takes the Star Wars saga into stranger, more questioning territory than its blockbuster label suggests. As Rey trains under a weary, doubt-ridden Luke Skywalker and the Resistance scrambles to survive the First Order, the film pairs its expected space-battle spectacle with a genuine interest in failure, legacy and letting the past go. The action and adventure are here, but so is a melancholy streak that divided longtime fans. It suits viewers open to a saga entry willing to challenge its own myths rather than simply repeat them, and rewards anyone who prefers their science-fiction with a thoughtful, occasionally provocative edge over pure fan service.
