A respectable ending

Rating: 8/10 (20 December 2019)

I vaguely recall seeing the original Star Wars at the theater as a child but its influence, as well as that of other space science fiction shows, is still with me today. Everyone has movies they prefer over others. Sometimes a person's expectation of what something should be influences their experience. I believe this may be a part of the reason for the negative reviews. The Rise of Skywalker offers fantastic visuals and a new storyline that is not reminiscent of previous films. For those who have seen all the movies, read some of the comics/books, watched the cartoon series of the Clone Wars and Rebels...there are plenty of fun easter eggs throughout the film. Thanks J.J., these are always appreciated! With major things to cover in a short time it may feel to some like the plot is rushed or has holes but I feel it is all logical and makes sense. Go see this without expectations and enjoy it for what it is...an entertaining movie bringing closure to a beloved series. It is worthwhile!
