"Star Wars" is a world-famous franchise and one of the most profitable - financially speaking - film history. So, sooner or later, the idea of reviving it on the big screen was going to happen, after all ... Technology has evolved immensely and with that, to show the intergalactic universe - along with the most diverse types of strange creatures - from other angles and with a larger magnetude was something "necessary".
Continuing exactly where the previous film ended, Rey - at the request of Princess Leia - meets Luke Skywalker and presents him with two exits: return to the resistance or train her, as she realizes the powers she has (but does not develop them by complete and does not control them accurately). Meanwhile, on the other side of the galaxy, resistance continues in its eternal battle against the first order.
Reviving a classic, that between highs and lows has managed to become such a well-established franchise is an extreme challenge because you will fiddle with what is already known and will add new elements to that world that fans already love ... And this is one of the biggest problems here.
The script of this sequence promotes a succession of mistakes that annoys a lot: an excess of unnecessary jokes (especially in the film, which incidentally... is an annoying mess), new characters who can not reaffirm themselves as new because they are repaginated old characters , a weak development of most of the characters already known (one of the worst flaws in the movie!)... Anyway, it's a plot that despite having more than 140 minutes, is pretty simple (more than the original story is already), which in almost nothing refers us to the previous films.
The film can not impose itself as an original sequence (just as the previous one did not succeed either) by reusing many of the ideas of the old films in a wrong way, and also for not being able to create new scenes of action so exciting (the third of the act is well below expectations). Under the messy direction of Rian Johnson (as well as the often annoying edition), the script can not develop any of the characters - as well as most of their situations - appropriately / satisfactorily - leaving virtually anything too shallow (except for a great moral conflict, proprouting the air that the franchise needs to stay alive in theaters.
The trump of the film is in the technical aspects (what we agree, was already something expected ... after all, we are talking about Disney): the special effects are great, it is really a technology show before our eyes (scenes of intergalactic battles are (although they are not always creative), the soundtrack is sensational and always exhilarates to enhance the scenes and the photography is very beautiful (especially those that involve the frigid scenes, which unfortunately were few).
"Star Wars: The Last Jedi" can't be epic (despite trying hard), but it's definitely worth watching in theaters (especially if you're a fan of the franchise).
