Ruby (radio sound): We're in intruder alarm!! There's some other being who's breaking the prisoners free that we're trying destroy it, but one of them has power to poofing us down!! We need you-- *interrupted from the attack out of nowhere and disconnected*
Obsidian: Hmm... They're must be breaking out to fight back on us... Dark Amethyst, go to our ship to find the prisoners and kill the intruder.
Dark Amethyst: *nods and runs away to find the transporter*
Obsidian: *looks away that he notices human military vehicles coming to attack his army* They're coming...

Ryan Blackonne: Ok, im pretty sure Bryan Emmerich and his girlfriend got kidnapped by those evil gems to kill them or something, im pretty sure we're to find some kind of flying vehicle to get in this big ship.
Smasher: Yeah, im pretty sure we better get a helicopter?
Ryan Blackonne: I don't think it'll work, cause they don't like chopper. How about their that transporting their army?
Smasher: Yeah, i think it is.
Eric Blakron: Yeah, looks like we're arrive to the city.
Ryan Blackonne: Ok, we better find the transporter before it'll flying away.
*While they're finding, they see one transporter lands on the ground to sending our soldiers*
Smasher: There it is!!

*While some members of Team Blast knocking down soldiers, they're getting in transporter to flying to the ship to landing in the hangar*
Marian Blakron: You did a nice one to stop the enemy pilot.
Smasher: No problem.
*As they land in the hangar, they get out of the transporter, beating up more soldiers and runs around the place to finding Bryan Emmerich and Mystica*
Smasher: Im pretty sure the ship itself is like a maze that we have to find them as possible.
Sally Ukrone: You bet so.
Ryan Emmerich: *looks around, until he sees a dark room with a light* There's something in the room, come with me, please?
*when they check the room, it turns out its a room of a movie "Star Wars: The Last Jedi".*
Eric Blakron: There's a movie in the dark room? Why the hell they have that?
Smasher: Yeah, its a long story...
Ryan Emmerich: Hmm... May i wanna stay there, because i was curious to see this movie.
Eric Blakron: Ok, but you better activate your phone radar to figure out where are we, ok?
Ryan Emmerich: Ok. See ya later.
*As they left for their mission, Ryan Blackonne is sit on the chair to watch a movie*
Ryan Blackonne: Alright, i saw "The Force Awakens" which it was great, so maybe it'll be great too? Only way to find out.
*2 in a half hours later*
Ryan Blackonne: Hmmm... Its a great movie, but... I don't think its perfect as "The Force Awakens"...
*review starts*
Hello everyone, i am Ryan Blackonne, and this is a movie review.
From two years ago, we have "Star Wars: The Force Awakens", a film that was considered to be a major success for the box-office and a great comeback, which we can't wait for Ep. 8.
Then last year, we say "Rogue One", which is the first anthology of Star Wars franchise, which its nice at first, but it would've been better.
So after 2 years of waiting, we got this movie that we're highly anticipating.
"Star Wars: The Last Jedi" is a 2017 sci-fi film that was written/directed by Riam Johnson and produced by Kathleen Kennedy and Ram Bergman.
From before, we've seen the ending where Rey founded a rare planet "Ahch-To" to see Luke Skywalker for teaching to become a Jedi, while the First Order unexpectedly return for revenge.
Although we already know that before the film came out, our legendary actress Carrie Fisher was sadly passed away after she was finished acting, which of course, this movie must be dedicated to her.
So, with all explained, will this movie will be strong with the force, or is this film will probably become a blacksheep since "The Empire Strikes Back"?
Lets find out about it.
The Story
As you know, it picks up right after "The Force Awakens", where of course, Rey come to Ahch-To to see Luke Skywalker for helping Resistance. However, Luke refused it, due to the fact he was disillusion for the failure of Jedi and learning about the death of Han Solo, despite that Rey was mysteriously talking to Kylo Ren with telepathy vision. Although Luke revisit a Millennium Falcon, he was surprise to see R2-D2, so he decided to accepting to Rey for teaching her about the lightsaber and the force. However, the Resistance was been followed by the First Order after Starkiller Base was destroyed. So its up to our heroes has to find the way to dueling at First Order once again.
Though the main plot was actually interesting, which is similar of "The Empire Strikes Back", because of the Jedi training and the truth, which it would be interesting to making Rey prepared to be powerful like Luke. But sadly, the main plot was stopped to the subplot about the Resistance been chased by the First Order, not before where Finn and Rose has to find the way to dealing First Order's big ship with Supreme Leader Snoke, by finding a codebreaker about the tracking device thingy from the First Order's ship and later on, it never happened nor mentioned anymore. Another element that's a waste of time is during the first act when Kylo Ren notice General Leia, which we though he's gonna killing her, but of course, it never happened anymore. (sorry if i spoil it.)
The story itself is rather above average, it would've been mainly focus on Rey's training, but it goes to a other plot that never happened or not. Talk about a confusion writing. And speaking of writing, its rather pretty cool and some part of dialogue has a sense of humor that it did made me laugh.
The production
Like "The Force Awakens", the development of this movie looks fantastic, whether it was done with CGI and sometimes practical. The most famous example for practical is BB-8, it was done with remote control while filming, they did a nice work on that. the filming location and how it looks is fantastic and beautiful, like filming of Ahch-To was located on Skellig Michael, Ireland, even though it had a difficult filming in the island, due to the rough weather and condition, which they film this place for four days. Another location example is new planet called "Crait", the filming was located on Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia, its a cool place choice for a new concept of planet. The action sequence, once again, it looks great like a roller coaster, especially with old speeders on "Crait" or the space battle in the first act. The designs looks pretty cool with new weapons, new vehicles (like the new A-wing and Kylo Ren's fighter) and creatures. But the one creature that i probably don't like is a furry bird creature in "Ahch-To" named "Porg", though i know it tries to be look cute, but i can't stand, because of its noise, which it sounds like kid's scream synthesizer. I mean it gets annoying easily for me. Even though there's some scenes that went in illusion, like a scene where Rey follow the path of force of meditation or perhaps a mirror scene. I mean, i though i was watching Star Wars, not "Doctor Strange 2".
The production of this movie is still looking fantastic for the creative, innovation production and probably one creature that i don't like.
The characters
Im sure some of you probably familiar with the characters in "The Force Awakens". For some others don't il give a summarize a bit and explain right now. Not only that, but it has some new characters.
First is our main hero named Rey (played by Daisy Ridley), she's known to be a scavenger in Jakku and later on, she was revealed to be a Force-sensitive girl from the past. Which of course, we're routing her that she'll become a Jedi to facing at First Order, but i won't spoil about her. But of course, i can say she's an interesting character and Daisy did a nice job of her character.
On her side, we have master Luke Skywalker (played by Mark Hamill), from before, he's a young hero that he likes to adventure in galaxy and follow the path of Jedi like his father. In this movie, he's rather serious and self-imposed, since the failure of the Jedi after thirty years. Even though he's like Yoda in mysterious planet, but rather serious since (with the title suggest), the Jedi has coming to an end. Its not easy how we consider whether Jedi was real or even a legend from decade ago at prequel trilogy. Despite that, Mark Hamill did a great work of his role, which is nice to see him as his famous character in Star Wars history.
Next, we have General Leia Organa (played by the late Carrie Fisher), as we know before, she's the princess of rebel and a sister of Luke. Here, she's been aged and became a general of Resistance for dealing the First Order. Even though there's nothing change, but Carrie did a great job of her role, considering that its her final role in the movie before past away one year before the film came out recently.
Then we have Finn (played by John Boyega), he's known to be a former Stormtrooper who escaped to the Rebels. He was an interesting character in the movie, even though he was used in the subplot to finding a codebreaker. Although still, Boyega did a nice work of his role.
Next, is Poe Dameron (played by Oscar Isaac), he's known to be an expert pilot of X-wing in rebel with BB-8. Here, despite a bit the same, but he's more of intention for his plan, like we he wanted to bring ever members of Resistance in the transporter to save themselves. I think he got an interesting extra persona when it comes to a backup plan. But still, Oscar is also nice work of his role.
While there's other heroes with old and new like Chewbacca who's played by Joonas Suotamo (Because Peter Mayhew is getting old of 73 with back pain, which he's probably going to retire his acting.), C-3PO (played by Anthony Daniels), Rose Tico (played by Kelly Marie Tran) who's a new character to working with Finn for the plan of tracking thing, DJ (played by Benicio del Toro), who's a codebreaker and probably intoxicated man and Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo (played by Laura Dern) who's an officer of Resistance.
As for the villains, we have of course, Kylo Ren/Ben Solo (played by Adam Driver), he's cool villain for seeking revenge for Darth Vader and looking for Rey about the ending Jedi. Like before, no matter if First Order failed, it always made him in mental breakdown to destroying something. Even though now, it has a plot element where it has some sort of connection between Rey and Kylo, but again i don't want to spoil the truth, but Adam is always good job of his villain role.
From Kylo side, we have Supreme Leader Snoke (played by Andy Serkis), he's known to be the lord of First Order and probably strongest Sith since we finally reveal who he is in this movie. He has dark force and probably threatening villain for his demand towards General Hux or Kylo. Even though that i can't help bu thinking he sorta similar personality of Darth Sidious. His appearance was all done in motion capture like any previous film where Serkis has done from decades like "Lord of the Rings", but they did a nice work for his appearance and Andy did a nice job.
They're two other characters in First Order like General Hux (played by Domhnall Gleeson) and Captain Phasma (played by Gwendoline Christie).
Although the characters are likable if we're familiar of the classic Sci-fi franchise. But other times some old/new casts are appeared shortly for a minute or perhaps death, its almost like they're being objectified that we want to see them again for more appearance, but in reality, they appeared for like less than a minute.
And now for the conclusion of the film.
Overall, "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" was a pretty good movie, but its not as perfect than "The Force Awakens", with story got split for the main focus was good, but others are a waste of time, the production looks fantastic for the creativity and the characters, although some are likable to watch, but others are objectified for a small moments. Even though that im aware that this film was either critical acclaim, or perhaps another "Blacksheep" Star Wars film since "The Empire Strikes Back". Even though its not the weakest film of the sequel trilogy, but hope for the better in episode 9. If you like Star Wars or following after "The Force Awakens", this one is for you.
I hate to say for Star Wars fans, i though it will be a perfect 10 rating, but it dropped that il give this movie an 8/10. again, its a pretty good movie, but not very perfect.
Well, thats all for the review. If you guys have your honest opinion or even request of review, let me know at the comment.
Thanks for reading, Blackonne out.
*review ends*
Ryan Blackonne: *leaves the room* Ok, i got this movie out of way, despite it would've been better than before... *grabs his phone to activate a map for scanning to find his partners*
*meanwhile, with Bryan Emmerich, Mystica and Antaku*
Mystica: Are you sure we have to find Dark Amethyst who's behind the mask.
Antaku: Yes, we have to deal with him before we go.
Bryan Emmerich: I don't know why is that, but i still wish if Anthony is fine...
*while they're sneaking, they're in the other hangar (with a bottom gate of the ship), they see Dark Amethyst who's standing in the bridge to finding the prisoners alone*
Mystica: *whispers* There he is!
Antaku: Ah...
Bryan Emmerich: Should we fight him?
Antaku: No... Il go after him for the real truth.
Bryan Emmerich: You'll go after him for negotiation?
Antaku: Yes, thats what i want for my order to know who he is, i know who this guy behind the mask is when i spied him secretly...
Mystica: Ok, be careful.
Antaku: *walks in to the bridge that he's far behind of Dark Amethyst*
Dark Amethyst: *starts to walking away*
Antaku: ... Anthony!!!
Dark Amethyst: *stops from noticing a name* ?!
To be Concluded...
