Rey and Kylo make the movie a pleasant surprise

Rating: 6/10 (10 January 2020)

Last Jedi was hard to recover from but I think Disney did it. They actually wrapped up 9 not 3 movies in The Rise of Skywalker with a pleasant, emotional and exciting (even if not brilliant) finish. I was pleasantly surprised after reading all the very negative reviews. I guess I should not have been surprised because I have found the story of Rey and Kylo to be the best parts of this trilogy. Almost everything else was really just mediocre or bad. The whole trilogy could be edited down to one good movie about them.
