The Rise of Disney

Rating: 5/10 (4 January 2020)

The Rise of Skywalker
This Star Wars movie is supposed to be the last out of nine movies. And no, let's not include the side stories or the life stories of certain characters.
I believed the saga ended after chapter six, however once Disney got involved, the saga continued. Of course, Star Wars is a science fiction phantasy movie. In other words, you can share any thoughts on the white screen, as long you come up with a story that other people are willing to believe. George Lucas was pretty successful to share his thoughts in the first six movies, however movie seven & eight and especially number nine, The Rise of Skywalker, the thoughts were Disney minded. The only part missing is that big Disney castle in Florida and Mickey Mouse standing on top of the roof of the castle.
Star Wars sells tickets, merchandise like toys, outfits, brands, you name it. Star Wars makes money. And part nine for sure will sell very nicely. However to go back to the movie. The story of The Rise of Skywalker is vague and basically in some way a copy of part six, but presented with a different twist. There is no Death Star available with the size of planet Mars, there are no real visible dark-side opponents such as Darth Vader or that chap which looks he has been overcooked. Kylo Ren is at least no member of any party.
This time the emperor himself comes up with an armada of star destroyers. More than you ever think off, the screen is full of star-destroyers. But all those star destroyers are at the end controlled by just one little command tower. And at the end of course all destroyed. The rebellion all in a sudden have mobilized the whole galaxy (and beyond) in order to attack the empire, I mean the First Order, I mean the Final Order. But it is the emperor who has so much power and force which enables him to control everything and almost to destroy anyone who gets in his way.
Just as vague as I describe this movie, just as vague Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker is also.
