Hey, and welcome to my Star Wars: The Last Jedi review. So a few days ago, me and my girlfriend, we went to the cinema and we watched the latest Star Wars film, and my god, was it a bad movie. It was terrible, absolutely terrible. It was the worst Star Wars movie I've ever seen, even worse than Episode

There were just so many irritating and annoying characters that were completely unnecessary to the plot. If you thought Episode 1 was irritating with Jar Jar Binks, Episode 8 is 10 times worse because there's like 4 different Jar Jar Binks characters. Straight

I was surprised with how good Rogue One was, but that was the exception. During the whole film, I kept thinking to myself, this is so lame, this is

I actually felt embarrassed whilst watching it. I felt embarrassed because I told my girlfriend how much of a huge Star Wars fan I am, and now here's Star Wars, we're watching Star Wars now, the brand new Star

It looks like Star Wars, it sounded like Star Wars, but it felt like I was watching some kind of kids movie or a Harry Potter movie. I enjoyed the first half hour of the movie. The first space

And the movie was so long, it was 2 hours and a half or something, and after the first hour I was just getting so bored. And then around the second hour I was just wishing it

I don't care about any of the new characters. They could all just die or get blown up and I wouldn't care Even the slightest. The character Poe, he's just basically a

He's exactly the same as Han Solo. He's just like a copy and paste of a character with a different actor instead. And then there's Finn, who seemed like he might have been an interesting character at the beginning

They turned him into this dumb comic relief character who's completely useless at doing anything, and he could just die and it wouldn't make any difference to the story or the plot. And then there's this new character, this Asian girl, who's there to provide a love interest for Finn, and

And I think it's great that they're including Asian girls in the Star Wars movies now, But there's millions and millions of really cute, attractive Asian girls, and out of all of them, they had to choose her. Probably one of the ugliest Asian girls I've ever

It was like they just went to a Chinese restaurant down the street and then randomly picked a waitress and said, hey, do you want to be in our Star Wars film? We're looking for an Asian girl. You look Asian. It's just like they want an Asian girl in the movie so they can say, hey, look, we

When they have an Asian character, a guy or a girl, they pick a really ugly Asian actor to play the Asian character. And then for the white characters, they choose really attractive, good-looking

They choose the ugliest black guys they can find to represent the black characters, and then they, they say that they're not racist. It is racist because They're representing the non-white characters with really ugly people, and they're choosing very attractive people to represent the white

I hate this thing these days with movies when they feel like they need to have a multiracial cast, otherwise people are going to criticize them for being racist. If you go to China and you watch a Chinese movie, do you think Chinese people complain that their Chinese movie is full of Chinese people? Do you think they

No, in China, the Chinese movies have Chinese people in them. There's this scene when Finn wants to sacrifice himself so he can blow up some kind of cannon by driving into it, and then at the last moment,

It would have been so much better if Finn died because he's a completely useless and stupid character anyway. But she crashes into Finn, knocks him out of the way, and then saves his life, and then she

I wish that after they kissed, they got blown up and they both died. It was the most awkward kiss scene ever, and it just came out of the blue. Why does she suddenly feel like she needed to kiss Finn?

And then there's this other irritating character who takes command of the Resistance after, after General Leia gets sucked out into space, which is another completely stupid thing. Do you know what happens if a human body gets sucked out into the void of space? All of their bodily fluids get violently sucked out of their body and

So she gets sucked out into space after some TIE fighter blows up the bridge of the main flagship of the Resistance, and then she uses the Force to fly back to the ship, and then

They managed to get her to the med bay or the hospital place, and then they, they start treating her, and then later in the movie she regains consciousness, and then she's perfectly fine. Anyway, whilst General Leia is unconscious recovering from, from having a swim around, from floating around in space without even wearing a suit and

I don't even remember her name, but she's this irritating kind of like Professor Umbridge kind of character from Harry Potter who's really strict and seems like a complete bitch. And they tried to make her seem like this bad character who's trying to stop Poe from doing whatever he was trying

And I was looking forward to seeing Luke Skywalker fighting Kylo Ren, and they do kind of fight at the end of the movie, but it wasn't actually a proper fight. It wasn't actually Luke fighting Kylo Ren. It was Luke using this brand new Force power where he can teleport himself, teleport an image of himself anywhere he

I was expecting some kind of epic showdown between them, but all you get is basically Kylo Ren having another emo tantrum whilst he fights a hologram. It's basically a hologram of Luke, and then Luke lets himself get cut in half. He lets his hologram get cut

And then he dies anyway, he disappears into nothing.

Why didn't they give us a proper fighting scene, a proper showdown between Kylo Ren and Luke Skywalker? That lasted more than 10 seconds. And then the movie ends with this

Please, please, for the love of God, make them die because they're just terrible, terrible, awful characters. I wish Jar Jar Binks would come back as a Sith and just slaughter them all. Bunch of
