A fitting end.

Rating: 7/10 (2 January 2020)

Forget the reviews and forget the critics and forget the upset fans who will never be satisfied look past it all and know that this is a finale for a new generation of fans. Comparisons to the original movies will always fall short. This movie is surprisingly better than expected.
It starts well and the movie flows nicely tying up loose ends and stitching together differing stories. It brings in some missing parts from the first two movies and concludes well. Yes there are still some questions that need answering but there have always been unanswered questions throughout all 9 movies but to say it's doesn't bring the franchise to a fitting end is selling it short. It rounds off nicely and for me it was pleasantly better than expected.
The standalone movies that are planned will no doubt fill in gaps as did rouge one for the original star wars trilogy so expect there to be cross references in the new planned yoda movie and rumoured 3 part obi wan movies.
