And the odds are stacked vastly against him.

I thought The Last Jedi was as good as any other Star Wars films, but I watch these with one eye closed. I admit it. I only tune in when someone with a cool looking helmet shows up on screen. I exaggerate, but at the end of the day, I am mostly there for the world building and set-design, so maybe that's why I have no especially strong feelings towards TLJ.
I can't tell if most of the complaints are political, story and expectation related, or what. I am sure there are valid reasons, because I have never seen a fandom explode like that, but at the same time, it seemed to be a political thing aa well. I'll try not to open that can of worms.
That said, I do remember enjoying bits of dialogue and feeling the pace slow to a crawl at points as well.
