I think Rian Johnson really fu*ked over Mark Hamill. It was almost like Mark had signed the contract but was really not happy being on set ...but as Mr Hamill is such a stand up guy and loves his fans.. he went through with it...no doubt to top up his pension aswell. It is beggars belief especially how he got neglected in TFA by JJ Abrams. I honestly felt sorry for him - more so than when i actually watched the film...watching him and Carrie Fisher acting together at the end was beautiful and very emotional. Also loved seeing puppet Yoda come to life -wonderful. Lets hope Rian Johnson leaves the legacy films alone from now on....i am more than happy for him to go off and produce new stories but he has done enough damage.

Extremely emotional. I almost cried in certain moments of the documentary and it shows very well the process of making such a huge production. I highly recommend it to anyone that enjoyed the movie.

Very nice documentary about the making of "The Last Jedi". I think it sums up the production process of the film quite nicely.

I watched this after I did watch the Legendary Cut of the movie, which is slighlty better but still not great or even good. Interestingly this is called _The Director and the Jedi_ instead of _The Making off: The Last Jedi_. Everyone should draw their own conclusion about that. It seems to dirtectly relate to the, shall we say, creative differences of opinion between Hamill and Johnson. It doesn't feel like a making of but rather like a commercial for teh director where at the end everyone agrees with him. There is so much unnessessary and downright stupid stuff in the movie and I get the feeling that Johnson's take was: "Hey I have this huge budget to spend, so, what the h*** let's spend it". Even if it does nothing for the story. I didn't like Johnson as a director/writer before but after seeing this I don't like him as a person as much as this is possible from not knowing someone at all. But you know, how there are certain people you know you just wouldn't get along with ? Like that. Those are the two major things I got out of this "documentary"

Not even discussing the quality of the film it's about, The Last Jedi, this is actually a poorly structured documentary. From it's first introductions, it's the wrap party followed up with clips of internet buzz about the film's director choice, and from there, starts showing off the More
