Ignore the plot and just enjoy the spectacle

Rating: 8/10 (19 December 2019)

The plot is nonsensical, so turn your brain off. It's abundantly clear that across all the three new movies there was no planned out overall story arc; so lots of retconning required. As with Ep 7 and 8, this movie has a very convoluted McGuffin(s).
As with Ep 7, JJ employs lots of fan service; which as a fan, I'm fine with.
Everything with Daisy Ridley (Rey) and Adam Driver (Kylo) is fantastic. The character development aspects all have great emotional payoffs; and this, along with the best force battles of any SW movie, is what make this a great finale.
