The hardest job in the world

Rating: 9/10 (22 December 2019)

As the title states, J.J. Abrams had the hardest job in the world having the responsibility of wrapping up 8 movies of story arc. I believe he does this masterfully.
Whether you were bothered by the pace of the film or not (I was not) I felt that Abrams and producers wrote a very cohesive and magnetic story while answering many peoples lingering burning questions from previous films as well as putting finality and closure to just about all character arcs.
Similar to how rogue one makes episode 4 feel like a better movie I feel rise of skywalker does a brilliant job at making some of the directions took in last Jedi feel more grounded, explained and enjoyable in future playbacks.
Coming from an avid die hard fan of this franchise, this film for me was a nonstop rollercoaster ride of emotions, action and satisfaction.
