+====== Star Wars: Last Jedi Review ======
+<note warning> **WARNING: This article contains spoilers. **</note>
+I will give Star Wars: Last Jedi 5.5/10, mainly because the story doesn't make much logical sense. Why is the Resistance portrayed as a good organisation? Why is the First Order considered as bad? I think the Resistance looks like an organisation that is very lacking in terms military tactics and discipline. Personally I support First Order, because they seem to be a better organisation.
+===== Military of the Resistance =====
+  * Lack of disicipline
+    * Capt Dameron disobeying order and continued the attack on First Order destroyer
+      * This resulted in a pyrrhic victory, and unnecessary loss of resistance personnel.
+    * Cmdr Dameron mutinied over Vadm Holdo's order to abandon ship.
+  * Failure to win hearts and minds [(hearts_and_minds > Wikipedia: Winning hearts and minds https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winning_hearts_and_minds)]
+    * Self-imposed exile by Luke Skywalker
+      * Even their senior leadership doesn't believe in their cause.
+    * Nobody responded to the distress call by the Resistance.
+  * Poor military leadership
+    * Vadm Holdo decided to kamikaze the Resistance cruiser
+      * This resulted in loss of a member of the senior leadership, it is harmful for morale.
+      * Couldn't she have used autopilot, or a drone?
+      * Couldn't they have done this earlier
+  * Lack of communication between team members
+    * Cmdr Dameron wasn't informed of Vadm Holdo's full plan of evacuation.
+      * This partially led to the mutiny.
+      * It is reasonable to believe that Cmdr Dameron would not have put Finn and Rose at risk by sending them to First Order flagship, if he was informed of Vadm Holdo's plan.
+    * Rose stopped Finn from committing kamikaze, and ended up injuring herself. She managed to crash 2 Resistance vehicles in the process, and she managed to pull both herself and Finn away from the battlefield.
+===== Military of the First Order =====
+  * Justified and Proportionate use of force
+    * The Cruiser chase scene
+      * It is reasonable to think that the First Order could have crushed the cruiser then, bu they decided to fire warning shots to ask the Resistance to surrender.
+  * Unity and Strength
+    * The red guards revenged for Snoke's death
+      * It clearly shows that the red guards' loyalty come from love and respect, rather than fear. Otherwise they would have immediate pledge allegiance to Kylo Ren.
+    * General Hux always followed orders.
+      * It doesn't matter if it was from Supreme Leader Snoke, or Supreme Leader Kylo Ren.
+      * It shows that he is a very disciplined and professional soldier.
+    * Better equipment
+      * This is probably because the First Order is better managed.
+===== Politics of the Resistance =====
+  * The Resistance refuses to cut a peace deal with the First Order
+    * Supreme Leader Kylo Ren proposed a power sharing agreement with Rey, but that was summarily rejected. They ended up having a fight during the negotiation - both side wanted Luke Skywalker's light saber.
+===== Radicalisation of Kylo Ren =====
+Luke Skywalker tried to kill Kylo Ren while Ren was asleep. Surely this is a safeguarding problem? I believe Skywalker needs to be reported to whatever government/authority they have. Skywalker's license to teach should have been revoked. Can you imagine if your lecturer / supervisor try to kill you, while you are taking a nap?
+In some ways, I believe Kylo Ren is a hero, he is trying to liberate the galaxy from this dangerous Jedi cult.
+===== Conclusion =====
+I really feel the Resistance deserves to perish
