From a fan who hated TFA and TLJ

Rating: 8/10 (21 December 2019)

Was this the best movie ever? Absolutely not. Was it better than I expected? Definitely. For everyone saying that this movie ruined the story, what did you expect? The story was set up by the force awakens to be terrible. Rise of Skywalker saved this series. It gave depth to characters who had no emotion or development whatsoever. It tried to follow more of the force rules that the last two blatantly disregarded. The pacing, style, and tone FELT like the original Star Wars. This complex mess of a story was wrapped up quite nicely. Will I still be pretending that Return of the Jedi was the last movie? Yes. But bon't blame this movie for problems that began two movies ago. I was expecting this movie to be just as bad as the last two but was pleasantly surprised. Give it a chance.
