Star Trek into Dumbness - Part II

Rating: 3/10 (20 December 2019)

The Burial of Skywalker is a triumph of production values, music and little else. Many actors did their best to elevate the canon and lore destroying material but only Uncle Palps succeeds from start to finish. Kylo does his best but even a beast as Adam Driver is undone by the abhorred 3rd act. Whoever has to follow this is cursed. Thank the lord for the Disney+ shows, some of the upcoming books/comics (the poor Knight of Ren) and the Clone Wars final season.
JJ gave it his all with EP VII that is a bit undone by the followups, Rian made an interesting but meandering non-sequel and JJ then came in with a poorly though out killing blow that was designed to serve all and thus serves none. Only the 4 Clone Era films are worse as they fail basic film making criteria.
5/10 and barely that.
