Jumping the Intergalactic Shark

Rating: 3/10 (19 January 2020)

Frankly underwhelming, the ninth and final installment of the Star Wars franchise failed to live up to the greatness and potential of the Star Wars dynasty. The deaths of important characters often went unanswered and were rather random. The outcome of the protagonists efforts was completely Disneyiffied. The amount of plot holes within the movie was disappointingly large, leaving the viewer with multiple unanswered questions that made the movie difficult to follow. However, the special effects must be given the proper praise that is due to them as the visuals of this movie, as is always the case in the Star Wars franchise, were unbelievable and gave a touch if realism. Although, the incredible special effects, however exquisite, could not overcome the overall jumping of the intergalactic shark that the 'Rise of Skywalker' was.
