The Last Jedi Was Glorious and Energetic

By employing an ensemble cast of reprisals and new additions, well-executed musical score by John Williams, sparkling visual effects, and breathtaking story elements, Star Wars: The Last Jedi was an admirable second course to the sequel trilogy of the Star Wars saga. The cast and crew have put in many long hours to make this one of the best films of the epic space franchise, and so they have. The primary plot of the film is Rey (Daisy Ridley) asking Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) to train her to become a Jedi. Luke is reluctant, as he believes it is time for the Jedi to end. Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) is concerned with how mighty Rey is becoming with the Force, and seeks to bring her to the First Order and join him in the Dark Side. It will take Rey, Luke, and the Resistance-led by now-General Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher), and assisted by Poe (Oscar Isaac), Finn (John Boyega), Rose Tico (Kelly Marie Tran), and various others- to try to restore balance to the galaxy and bring peace among everybody.

Putting aside the inopportune death of Carrie Fisher, The Last Jedi was an astounding movie to see. Director Rian Johnson applied spectacular explosion sequences and victorious moments. For example, I enjoyed Kelly Tran's performance as pilot Rose Tico. Tran's character exemplified relentless spirit in trying to save her friends from enemy harm. Also, every now and again, the film tells that "The Force" is not just telepathic and telekinetic ability, but it is meant to show the good and the bad in one's soul and how they impose it on others.

As a whole, everybody in this film exceeded my expectations and took my breath away. It us an astounding and valiant Star Wars piece that everyone must see once they get the chance. I cannot wait to see what Star Wars has next. And may the Force be with Carrie Fisher (1956-2016) and Kenny Baker (1934-2016), who portrayed R2-D2.
