Makes the pre-queals look good.

Rating: 2/10 (19 December 2019)

Not going to sugarcoat this review. This movie takes everything about Star Wars that fans loved and just tosses it into the garbage. After the movie "The Last Jedi" (which in itself was an unmitigated disaster itself) it would be an impossible task to fix what Rian Johnson did to the franchise. JJ Abram's basically retconned everything from Phantom Menace up to TLJ.
We were taught that Anakin would bring balance to the force and he did by killing Palpatine in "Return of the Jedi". Well, none of that matters it seems. Palpatine still lives. ::sigh:: So everything our original three heroes (Luke, Lies, Han) went through means nothing.
Why?
Because the writers of the last three movies did no research about Star Wars. You can see it in the movies that were made. They were disjointed, convoluted mess, from the Force Awakens until this last movie.
Rise of Skywalker doesn't just bring the Star Wars Saga to an end - it destroys it. Makes a complete mockery of everything Star Wars.
Only thing Star Warsy about this movie is the sights and sounds you have come to love about Star Wars movies. There are plenty of great visuals and of course the music is great. Which is why I gave it two stars.
Don't waste your money. Wait for it to come out on Blu Ray or makes it to TV broadcast.
