Plus, more time could have easily been added to Rey and Luke’s portion of the movie, due to the fact that the mini-adventure Finn went on with Rose to find a “Codebreaker” was ultimately useless to the overall outcome of the story and c(sh)ould have been cut to make the overall runtime much shorter. Those three being Rey and Luke’s story, Finn and Rose’s story, and then the main storyline with Poe and the rest of the Resistance on the ship getting “chased” by the First Order.Īnd all of these scenarios and characters eventually came together for the final act, but for the first two acts, every character and arc was subconsciously fighting for more screen time. As the audience, we were following 3 completely different story arcs throughout the movie. One of the ways Star Wars has fallen short and obtained this audience score is that this chapter in the Star Wars saga had a very broken story structure. Why is there such a split between these two groups? Why is this movie the worst out of all the Star Wars films (even the prequels) according to the audience? Could it be the plot holes? The jokes that were trying too hard? The killing of a Star Wars legend with no recognition? As of right now, the movie sits at a fresh critic score of 91%, but at a rotten 49% for an audience score. But it did have trouble with the audience score on the popular entertainment website- Rotten Tomatoes. With the release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi on December 15, it had no trouble getting off the ground with a $220 million dollar opening weekend.
