Episode 9: the rise of huh?

Rating: 2/10 (20 December 2019)

Its not terrible, but it's not Empire either. There's random characters thrown in that have never been referenced before that we are supposed to accept have had long relationships with some of our main characters.
Rey's not a Skywalker but ends with changing her name to Skywalker instead of accepting the reality of her origin, instead of the Skywalker legacy living on with the character who is actually related to a Skywalker? Kind of disappointed with that choice. The title of this final SW movie makes no sense, literally all of the Skywalker's in this saga are all dead by the end of the movie. Its kinda confusing.
The movie has some of the best visuals ever seen in any SW movie, but that doesn't save it from the questionable story choices. The acting all around is greatly improved for all the main characters. Leia's send off was predictable but probably necessary since the options were pretty limited.
Would like to of seen Asoka have a part in this story, or any character besides these new throw away characters they are forcing on us. It felt as if the series was the palpatine saga rather than the Skywalker saga this whole time. The character of Luke Skywalker could not of been more sidelined in these most recent movies then what we've seen them do. Luke may as well of not even been in these movies, since nothing he did in the original trilogy seemed to matter.
Entertaining movie, but holy crap it feels like Disney just wanted to end this like a fart in the wind. You should make up your own mind though.
