The ending a Star Wars fan didn't expect

Rating: 10/10 (23 December 2019)

Going into this third and final film of the Disney era Skywalker sequel saga, I wasn't very optimistic and thought that this will surly be a letdown. I was pleasantly incorrect. The film was a delight, it exceeded my expectations without a doubt. Does it have nostalgia kickers? Yes it does, but that isn't a bad thing, especially for a film wrapping up a 40+ year story. There were answers and nods to events from The Last Jedi that wrapped up some questions, though it may have been in a blink and you miss it kind of format. All-in-all it felt fairly solid. The action was fast paced and the story moved in a way that kept you in your seat. It makes sense as to how others might feel that it was a convoluted story, but if you keep your eyes glued to the screen, and have watched the other films while also having a decent knowledge of Star Wars lore (not required but helps), then this film will not be hard to follow. It's fast enough to keep it from getting stale or boring which is great. I highly recommend this film for lovers and hardcore fans of Star Wars. The Force is with this one.
