Loved it, from an original Star Wars fan

Rating: 9/10 (8 January 2020)

I was 8 years old when the original came out. I had all the toys, action figures, etc. Loved the original trilogy, the prequel trilogy not so much. Although I thought Force Awakens was not much more of a rehash of episode 4, I loved the return to the familiar feeling and heart of the originals. Although The Last Jedi I feel is the weakest of the new, it had it's moments. With Rise of Skywalker, I was really blown away by the completion of what is, for me, a story I've had as a part of my life for 42 years. It brought the heart of Star Wars full circle, with great action, story , and revelations, nostalgia and new beginnings. The best of the new trilogy, don't miss this one because of those that wanted something different. Thanks for the ride, Star Wars!
