Through the introduction in the opening text, the First Corps discovered the base of the resistance organization and sent a fleet to attack, while the heroine Rey was looking for Luke Skywalker, hoping that Luke would come back to help the resistance organization fight against the evil forces led by Snook. The opening battle is not unremarkable, but unfortunately from here, the director and the screenwriter have fallen into the predicament of incompatibility. Commander Podameron took BB8 into the enemy fleet alone. While humiliating the other party, he pretended to be cool and destroyed the external turrets of the enemy ship in order to let the bombers blow up the enemy ship smoothly. As a commander, don't you know that Do enemy ships have fighter jets? So many menacing bombers, carrying a lot of bombs, were all reimbursed before they could show their skills, injuring one thousand enemies and self-destructing eight hundred. What Dameron did before was all useless. Dameron in "The Force Awakens" can be described as heroic and witty, but in the entire "The Last Jedi", he is completely stunned, has no role, and has a very weak sense of existence. Unwelcome?
The crisis was temporarily resolved, and Finn also woke up. By the way, Rey was brought out. Star 8 officially entered two mainline modes. One was that the resistance organization continued to be pursued by the First Army, and Princess Leia led her subordinates to support them; the other was Rey. Under Luke's teaching, the force increased greatly, and he had more communication with Kylo Ren, successfully killed the big boss Snook, and finally rescued the resistance organization. To paraphrase Luke to explain the nature of the Force: it's a balance. And these two lines have not reached a balance. The resistance organization has been losing ground, always abused, and finally has not ushered in a highlight moment. During this period, whether Princess Leia, Dameron or Finn, are in no state, and they are helpless in the face of difficulties. Rey is dashing, facing the sea, spring blossoms, not only feeling the breath of the birthplace of the Jedi Knights, but also finding a way to save the crisis. The imbalance between the two lines is embodied in the large contrast before and after the main characters, resulting in Star 8 being the least Star Wars part.
Luke Skywalker. She has lived in seclusion for many years on an isolated island, eating seafood, drinking fresh milk, guarding martial arts secrets, and knowing the secrets of Jedi Knights. She has long been a legendary master of the world, but when faced with a girl who came to her door, she could not see that she was also in charge. Force. Rey has repeatedly emphasized that the resistance organization is facing a crisis, and that he has to help for the sake of the Republic and his sister. Luke scoffed at the top. He didn't expect to see the pendants of the two brothers and sisters on the Thousand Falcon, and suddenly changed his mind. Value Methodology. In the process of narrating Ben Solo's becoming Kylo Ren, he even played Rashomon with Rey: Luke told a version first, Kylo Ren said he lied, told a version himself, and finally Luke told it again In his own version, the audience's heart is broken. As an uncle, can he take a little responsibility and always want to separate himself from himself, won't it affect the cultivation of the Force?
Princess Leah. First of all, I will pay tribute to Carrie Fisher here. I hope you are happy in heaven. What I am talking about below is not for you, but for the director! In addition to demoting Dameron, Princess Leia spent the rest of the time in the hospital bed, and did not play a role in the command and decision-making of the leader of the resistance organization at all. Even if Carrie Fisher is seriously ill and can't have too many scenes, she shouldn't be allowed to escape death in the attack. The actor himself has passed away. Does Xing 9 use a double or CG technology? Or start with the text that Princess Leia passed away due to illness? Personally, I don't think it's better to stop here than either option. Emotionally, Princess Leia's performance is too flat. Although her son turned to the dark side and killed Han Solo, as a mother, it is really unreasonable that she did not show even sporadic feelings for her son.
Stormtrooper Finn. Finn became a hero because of "The Force Awakens". He was injured and comatose in the last episode, probably because of a problem with his head, and his IQ has been offline since he woke up in this episode. The resistance organization has been chased by the First Army, and the crisis is full of dangers. Finn does not help to find a way, but tries to find Rey, but is stunned by a female fan during the escape. It seems that the effect of electrotherapy is good. Finn, who woke up again, immediately thought of the reason why the spacecraft was still being tracked even after crossing, and proposed a solution. Why did you go earlier? Everything is ready, I only owe Dongfeng, and I can't get the password to enter the enemy ship. It seems like an unsolvable problem. I didn't expect to find a solution through online friends, so Finn and his Asian female fans had a chance to travel at a public expense. When he came to the casino, in the face of the severe crisis on the front line and the tight schedule and heavy tasks, Finn actually admired the beautiful scenery and praised that the life of the rich was good. Moreover, as a storm soldier, he could not even handle a few security guards in the casino. After being caught, he was deceived by the liar and almost lost his life. The only gain was to capture the hearts of Asian women.
Ben Solo / Kylo Ren. One of the biggest changes in Star 8 is that the heir of the Dark Knight, Kylo Ren, took off the helmet. The reason was that Ky Loren was ashamed for killing his father, and Snook found and scolded him for being weak, "Take off your fragile helmet. ”, from then on, the Dark Knight became a legend. Another change is that, unlike Darth Vader, the reason why Ben Solo turned into Kylo Ren is not that Ben Solo was tempted by darkness, but the original potential dark power, which was inspired by Luke's sneak attack. , I voted for Snook in order to protect myself. I really don't know if fans can accept such an explanation. Kylo Ren's inner role is very heavy, the guilt of his father, the yearning of his mother, the hatred of his uncle, the forbearance of Snook, and the sympathy for Rey, are the center of all relationships, but unfortunately the actors did not perform well, With an expression close to facial paralysis, even the roar at the final attack moment seemed too weak.
boss Snook. He is the weakest villain boss in the galaxy. From the earliest Lord Wade, to the Sith Emperor, and Darth Vader, they are all hidden and controlled in the background, which is extremely difficult to deal with. Snook in "The Force Awakens" is still holding a pipa and half-covering his face, and his strength is unfathomable, but when he reaches Star 8, he stays in a house with a five-cent decoration effect, and even his makeup is obviously a weak chicken. , In addition to being able to take things from the air, he has no ability. He claims to be able to read other people's thoughts. Unfortunately, this egg is really not round, and he was easily cut in half by a lightsaber, which completely failed the audience's expectations for a big villain.
other supporting roles. Asian female fans are absolutely capable of grabbing the show. They come from humble backgrounds, sacrifice their relatives, and are helpless. How can they miss the opportunity when they meet the great hero Finn? Taking this position, it is not impossible to establish an independent biography in the future. The liar played by Benicio De Toro definitely wasted a good actor. This character is a bit inexplicable. Although his identity is suspicious, he is not fooled by his life. There should be another reason for deceiving Finn this time. Star 9 appears again. Very likely. Master Yoda. The most bizarre scene in Star 8 happened when Luke was planning to burn down the holy place of the Jedi Knights Book Collection. Master Yoda appeared in the form of a soul. After saying a few words, the dubbing was just torturing the ears. Thinking that Luke would stop at this point, Master Yoda rolled the sky and smashed the Holy Land into pieces. The resistance organization is on the verge of extinction, the Milky Way is hopeless for peace, and Master Yoda ignores it, but he came out to play soy sauce on this boring occasion. He is really an old urchin among the Jedi Knights. Robot BB8. Since the appearance of "The Force Awakens", it has become a cute pet. At Star 8, almost every key stage of the resistance organization has the help of BB8. It is simply "timely rain", and it has self-healing magic. . In contrast, C3PO and R2D2, etc., are completely tribute to the existence of the previous work. various creatures. The Star Wars series has provided us with countless interstellar creatures, and Star 8 has also designed several models, some responsible for selling cuteness, some responsible for cleaning, some responsible for milk production, and some responsible for leading the way. Few bright spots. It is worth mentioning that Prince William, Prince Harry, Jon Joseph, etc. also played guest appearances as Stormtroopers. Although it is impossible to tell the difference with the armor, when the Stormtroopers appear, they will still be interested in guessing.
Jedi descendant Rey. As the only heroine who can stand up to the scene and perform well, in addition to upgrading explosive equipment in this episode, the other is the exploration of her own identity. Why an orphan in a place where birds don't shit would have the Force, why did he feel acquainted with the birthplace of the Jedi Knights, why did Luke get through the second line of Ren and Du after only three lessons, Rey became more and more confused, More and more want to know the truth. The director played tricks on this aspect, made Luke question her identity, and lured her into a black hole. Just when she thought she was about to get close to the truth, she finally said everything through Kylo Ren's mouth: You Just an orphan in a shabby place, your parents are normal people, you just had the Force by chance and happened to meet someone who rebelled. Look, this is the embodiment of the mainstream values in the United States, and it is exactly in line with the spirit of our leader's New Year's Day speech: ordinary people are the happiest, and ordinary people can also achieve lofty ideals through their own efforts. Therefore, Rey, as the protagonist and the heir of the Jedi Knight, is completely a history of personal growth and struggle. After so much tempering, after the death of Luke Yuhuaxian, he will definitely lead the resistance organization to create a republic and glory.
The concept of the Force can be said to be the most important concept in the Star Wars series. Both good and evil compete around the Force. Jedi Knights believe that the Force has multiple aspects, including biological and one-piece elements, combining all things into a vast network of existence. . The dark forces, on the other hand, study the dark side of the Force and only focus on the unique power of the Force, which also leads them to a dead end. Every episode of the Star Wars series will have a new understanding of the Force. For example, in "A New Hope", Obi-Wan only briefly mentioned to Luke that the Force is the source of power for the Jedi Knights, and at first glance, it is a superpower In "The Empire Strikes Back", Master Yoda explained in depth that the Force is a force that exists in all things in the universe, and mentioned the factors that lead to falling into the dark side, such as aggression, fear, hatred and anger. In Star 8, the Force has become an omnipotent tool, which can have mobility (Lea was injured and returned to the spacecraft from space), telepathy (communication between Rey and Kyloren, Luke and Leah), It can even be virtualized (Luke avatar playing Kylo Ren), it can be said that the force is the force that conquers everything. And Luke, the Jedi master, explained the force as: the force represents a balance, light and darkness pull each other, and a little more light is not enough, and a little more darkness is not right, oh no, it is definitely not used to move stones. It's a pity that the director really asked our Rey to rescue the rebel group at the end, which is clearly the force of moving stones.
