Not Perfect, but what movie is?

Rating: 10/10 (20 December 2019)

People are just hating on this movie because they can't stand to see an original Star Wars movie without the old Characters at the helm. Sure, the new characters aren't perfect, but they do have beautiful story arcs since TFA.
Fin starts off as a stormtroopers who can't stand being a part of TFO. He then helps Poe and joins the resistance. He helps where he can, and upon Leia's death, leads the resistance with Poe. In the he almost dies standing up for tbe resistance.
Rey has a great arc in this movie alone but we'll start at the beginning. She starts off as a scavenger on Jakku, and is found by and joins the resistance with him. She then battles Kylo Ren. After that she trains with a reluctant Luke Skywalker. Then she finds a strong bomb between her and Ren. They team up to kill snoke but are still on different sides of the war. She then finds out that she is a Palpatine. The bond between her and Kylo is the "the rule of two" a sith bond. She tries to close herself off to try not to become bad, but realizes that she doesn't have the heart to become evil.
Kylo Ren's story arc is the same as Darth Vader, which is a very common one. Like I said this movie isn't perfect, but it does keep Palpentines darkness consistent between films.
With all these character arcs, the things that tie it together is lots of action lightsaber battles, new character, relationships, a musical masterpiece by John Williams, and a farewell to our beloved Skywalker Saga.
When a franchise has three trilogies, there is bound to be a few movies that people hate. Obviously it sucks that that movie is the last one, but we have to live with that. But after seeing the final installment I can happily say the sequel trilogies don't be the Originals (as nothing will) but definitely beats the Prequels and Solo.
