Let's bring the saga to an end - a convoluted fast-food sausage by committee

Rating: 6/10 (19 December 2019)

The Rise of Skywalker feels like eating a giant sausage (with lots of mustard, thanks to the FX).
Not e great meal, just fatty fast-food to somehow feed and "please" most viewers in a very hurried fashion:
Let's re-use every ingredient out there (using dead actors instead of dead meat) and cram everything into one giant mix to create that final sausage fast-food that the fans were cravinf for.
And you better hurry watching: Very fast cuts that don't feel like classic Star Wars - simply because otherwise the same content would need hours to develop and mature (probably worth another whole trilogy instead of one final movie). There isn't one memorable scene, it's cut - cut - cut in a frenzy.
Content worthy of a Star Wars 10-12 trilogy crammed into one movie.
I don't really blame this final movie or the director. It's basically an effort to combine all open strings, close plot holes and resolve open subplots from other movies (I'm looking at you in particular, Star Wars 8). A nearly impossible task.
Side Note: It looks like both the Jedi and the Sith get more and more power(ful) with each SW movie.
Which makes the story line harder to believe and inconsistent, the new "moves" creep into borderline fantasy instead of classic SW Sci-Fi with established rules. Why even build own or fight enemy spacecraft at all when one guy or gal can take down down or at least neutralize entire fleets of starships? The force is strong there, but not so much with this final movie.
Summary:
6/10. A movie by committee. Not bad, but not good either. Feels like a cloned SF action flick with a huge budget. Disney fooder for Christmas (and I don't blame Disney as a corporation on principle, I like "their" new Mandalorian TV series a lot so far.).
PS: As a reference, I would rate Phantom Menace as 2-3/10 and Empire Strikes Back as 9-10/10. This is in the middle, the extreme 1/10 and 10/10 reviews popping up on IMDB should be disregarded imho.
