The difficult, arduous, hurried and victorious mission of fixing the events of episode VIII, rallying the fans and completing the Skywalker saga.

Rating: 8/10 (19 December 2019)

J. J. Abrams and Chris Terrio had the difficult mission with episode 9 of; present the conclusion of the Skywalker saga and rejoin the Star Wars fanbase which so far was divided after the events of the pity "The Last Jedi".
Abrams and Terrio sought to compensate and fix the mistakes of episode VIII with a single movie that had the plot of two. And for this reason, as well as the last season of Game of Thrones, The rise of Skywalker is in a hurry to present several cores and plots, of which could have been presented and better developed since episode VIII...
As we watch, we may feel that we were taken one of two films and that we were compensated only in its second part for satisfactory solutions.
In fact, it was understood that Rian Jhonson's choices were not the best, and this is clear at several points in the movie, where Luke himself plays with the phrase "This is not the way to treat a Jedi's weapon."
Finally the trio Rey, Finn and Poe Dameron have the long-awaited and desired chemistry between friends, as were the relationships of Luke, Han and Leia and Obi-Wan with Anakin.
Because of the rush to explore various universes, Palpatine's presence is explained only on the sign, for something that could have been accomplished in episode 8.
But otherwise, it fulfills its role well.
The battles are insane and this time the Force is present. Not only present, but alive!
In this chapter the offensive, defensive, mystical, and religious uses are not denied to us. Quite the contrary, it is fully evidenced in great scenes of the true uses of Force and, in some points, almost inspired by "The Force unleashed."
Did they miss the lightsaber battles? Okay, so do we, and although gross, the choreography is great.
Despite the rush, as well as The Revenge of the Sith, The Rise of Skywalker managed in its latest film to gold-lock this seemingly lost trilogy.
