Movie YouTube channel Screen Junkies has now released the latest 'Honest Trailer' video and this time they take a crack at the polarizing movie called Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

The film is an interesting one since several people like it, while at the same time several people hate it.

Due to the polarizing reception, Screen Junkies has two narrators going at it in this new Honest Trailer.

The current narrator defends the good things about the film, while the original narrator is back to pretty much highlight the film's flaws.

Screen Junkies posted the following description: "In a polarized world, the next installment in a franchise all about balance and non-attachment will be worshipped, hated, and obsessed about until it's not even fun to talk about anymore  - It's Star Wars: The Last Jedi"

Star Wars: The Last Jedi strays away from the old Star Wars formula, although some people felt it deviated a little too much. One of the most criticized things is the way Luke Skywalker was portrayed in the film. 

Luke Skywalker is no longer the optimistic Jedi he was once when he was thirty years ago Now he's just a bitter old man living out his days on a deserted island. 

Another thing this trailer criticizes is that The Last Jedi fails to answer the big questions that were left open from The Force Awakens. Things like Snoke, Rey's parents and how Maz Kanata got Anakin's Lightsaber were never really answered in the new film.





Anyway, you can watch the new honest trailer for yourself down below. Do you agree with all of the points highlighted in the video?
