    Star Wars: The Last Jedi

    ★★

    The worst Star Wars movie ever created with total disregard for Lore, Character work, and good writing. It’s impossible to have an IQ higher than 10 and think this is a good addition to the Star Wars universe. 2 stars are for the cinematography, at least someone cared about their work.

    ★★★

    A weaker story than "Your Name" and "Suzume" in my opinion, but all the same interesting and well done. I wish the film had more character growth for its two protagonists and allowed more on-screen time for their relationship to grow instead of rushing it along.

    ★★★½

    A well shot, well paced, and tragically compelling story about the slow death of love. This film does a good job bouncing back and forth between two timelines, slowly revealing key information about its two protagonists. It is a sobering and harsh look at marriage in it's worst form.

    ★½

    A decent attempt at slapstick comedy. Although this movie is technically adequate (for a low-budget film), and has a few genuinely funny moments- the film is greatly held back by its poor writing and acting. Another weak point of the film was the score- which sounded like temp-tracks that never got replaced. I want to like this movie since it is willing to poke fun at an “untouchable” subject, but it plays like a low-budget indie film with adult amateur…
