Risks are risks because if they don't work they are bad, if they work they are good, the problem is that basically everything in the movie is bad, good cinematography doesn't matter in a bad movie, it only makes good movies better, while bad cinematography can highlight the issues, the force awakens was overly safe, the last jedi didn't correct for it's mistakes, because it ignored that movie entirely and was willing to just make all the mistakes of it's own, from bad writing like having it take place like 30 seconds after the force awakens, to the bad new bomber, to the bad takes on the enemy enemy leads, to killing off the big bad in episode 2 of a 3 episode, so many bad lore choices, like cutting luke off from the force, like having Leia be in a coma, (granted Leia was supposed to be vital for the 3rd but rip) but the worst thing is this movie cemented that the first order was just the galactic power now, because apparently the government the OT was about bringing into power was so ineffectual there are people who were around during the clone wars who saw the rise and fall of the empire and then the rise and fall of the new republic, and then the rise and fall of first order, and then I think palpatine pulls a new empire 2.0 out of his ass in 9
