Naïve Old Fart 9,512 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 It's quite clear that Adam Driver has genuine talent, which is more than one can say for either Ridley, or Boyega. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Boyega I can't get into. Ridley I'm okay with, but I do find her a bit flat at times, lacking in charisma and necessary depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Plus Daisy is more believable physically.

Romão 2,274 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Daisy is not the best actress in the world, but I also agree as others have said that she indeed as a certain easterness to her. Plus, I think she's really good with facial expressions. She sells a lot on that alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweeping Strings 2,352 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Star Wars : The Last Jedi - well, I see online fan-opinion is decidedly mixed and I did find it a little on the overlong side.

crocodile 7,999 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 He was the best thing about the film. Followed by Daisy and Adam. Carrie Fisher also was much better here than she was in TFA. Karol Holko 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK 3,307 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Yup. Hamill was the highlight for me as well. The earnestness in his performance brought a real charm to a film that could have otherwise been another dull plot-heavy blockbuster. Fisher wasn't as great. But better than TFA, I agree.

Wojo 2,453 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I don't understand why there aren't massive squadrons of hungry birds swooping down to eat the tiny people in their shrunken paradise.

Quintus 5,399 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Sideways is quite good actually. I suppose it's a buddy movie for intellectuals, but not without some of the more recognisable tropes one finds in say an Eddie Murphy-ish equivalent.
