Objectively non-sensical.

Rating: 5/10 (29 January 2020)

I can't sit here and rant about every plotholes in this movie , but there's no point in that. AngryJoeShow made a 2 HOUR video going over everything they could think of in this movie that makes no logical sense and it still wasn't enough.
Here are the broad strokes:
1: The Rise of Skywalker has so many plot holes that it's impossible not to notice unless you have your brain turned off. It ruined my imerssion and it will ruin yours to if you're not a zombie. End of story. It is not an opinion. It's not nerd rage. It is a fact. This movie has logical impossibilities that directly contradict the originals, prequels, and ep 7 and 8.
2: The movie's pacing is all over the place. It starts off blindingly fast and then takes several twists and turns that just serve to build up to the final battle. By this point, thanks to the last Jedi, it doesn't have many plot points to pick up on, it's main villan, the emperor, was not set up whatsoever before this, and despite it's decent attempt to wrap up all the random losses ends, it still leaves several of them hanging.
3: Characters in this movie (and trilogy) are a disaster. Poor Finn spends another entire movie getting friend zoned by a different character, because Rose is barley in the movie. Leia, just like Han and Luke dies for no reason and doesn't do anything badass first. Lando returns but barely has any screen time, and the surprise was ruined because these block heads put him in the trailer. We finally find out who Rey is, but just like so many things in this movie, it makes no sense and was not built up to whatsoever, leaving you with more questions than answers. Kylo Ren does have a good character arc albiet a little bit predicable. Beyond that, this movie doesn't have time to introduce it's new characters effectively, to the point where I couldn't even remember their names. I feel most of these new Star Wars characters are well thought out, but few are given enough time to develop.
4: This whole trilogy's artistic value is weak. For a name that we hold in such high regard as a culture, it's rather embarrassing that this Star Wars trilogy is devoid of any sort of commentary on real world events or problems. The orginals and yes, even the prequels did this better, and that is why star wars is loved so much by Americans.
Yes those were broad strokes. That's how much there is to consider. What is the point of this, you've already seen it anyway.
