The worst thing a Star Wars movie could do at this point is leave audiences with nothing to ponder during the wait for the next one.

Thankfully, The Last Jedi's litany of surprising revelations ensures that fans have a lot to digest coming out of the cinema, and debates are likely to rage for years about some of the movie's more divisive moments.

Though Johnson does answer a lot of The Force Awakens' dangling threads, he smartly leaves a lot up in the air too, while also posing many new questions to make fans even more desperate to see Episode IX.

It is the best possible result: a movie that explains a lot in extremely satisfying fashion, but also creates enticing new mysteries.
