Rian Johnson’s sequel to the Force Awakens is one of the most controversial chapters in Star Wars storytelling history. It’s widely beloved and despised—which makes for great art, to say the least. It opens in the moments immediately after Episode VII, with Rey having found Luke Skywalker, the Resistance on the run from the First Order, and Kylo Ren planning something nobody could see coming. It’s an artfully made film sure to generate conversation when the credits roll.
