Just a Garbage! I can't believe what happened to my favorite franchise. Am I awake or it's only a damn nightmare?! Movie is full of silly plot twists and bad actings. Damn Kathleen Kennedy, Damn her. She is responsible for this piece of sh*t.

plenty wrong with his movie. They tried to provide some fan service, but the story made little sense, and just jumped around.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is by far the worst of the recent Star Wars movies. My theory is that they knew what ending they wanted and worked out the script backwards from there. It is boring, repetitive and by the end purely nonsensical. You have to groan in disbelief when there is yet another revelation that a major character is related to the iconic originals. The space battle special effects are mediocre at best. Even Solo was better than this. Daisy Ridley is fine as Rey but some of the things she has to do are ludicrous. I think it is time for Kathleen Kennedy to step down from overseeing this franchise. The last few years have been a mess. There is always talk of getting a visionary scriptwriter and/or director to do something different but then the fear sets in and there is a retreat - and the end result is something that feels like it was created by a committee. I was looking forward to seeing this movie but the end result is a major disappointment. This is a botch. Expand

The plot is ridiculous and filled with more holes than a delicious piece of cheese. It’s a clumsy farce and reminds us all of how the plot holes in the first two newer movies, continue to roll along and smash Lucas’ legacy.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It is all about Rey - girl power. The Last Jedi never happen. Forget everything about it. No refunds. The GOAT without any training now trains nonstop. This obviously self- centered (female canine) neglects her responsibilities forcing the universe to suffer. Most importantly no one ever really dies. Do not believe any facts in this or any other film. Feelings rule. Beware the shameless amount of fan candy. It is to distract the most intelligent movie going base ever from this unoriginal, insulting, painfully predictable cliche. Rey appears to have gained twenty-plus despite multiple bindings. None the less, it does not slow her from single-handedly saving the very universe she placed in peril. That other stuff is just background noise. Moral: Rey is God. Two stars solely for John Williams. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Fan service: 8
Actual Story: 2

Rise of the Skywalker is a fast forward movie trying to reckon the "important" parts of The Last Jedi. While at the same time tries to give you a story.

The problem that I have with this trilogy is that it make feel that now this whole SAGA is no longer a bout the Skywalker's, is but instead the Emperor Palpatine. The narrator of the trailer should be saying, Thr Emperor Palpatine is back and now his granddaughter Palpatine RISES to confront him.

One way you could fix the titles of episode 8 and 9 is if you inverted those titles. Episode 8 should be called Rise of the Skywalker since Luke Skywalker Rise to confront his actions one more time. And episode 9 should be called Te Last Jedi. Rey ends being thr Last Jedi at the of her chapter.

Episode 7, 8 & 9 feels like a small reboot of episode 4, 5 & 6. Cause you can watch this new trilogy's without ever watching the first six movies since they eliminated that Anakin is the chosen one, theres no need to watch his six movie arcs. It's a shame that they wanted to give you a movie focused on fan service instead of give us a proper story on the Skywalker SAGA.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The end of the Skywalker Saga is just that. All the Skywalkers are dead. I can't help but think that Palpatine won, that the ritual succeeded and he lives in Rey now. That's the only way to explain the butchering of Ben and Rey's characters.

I got what I wanted from this movie. I got reylo. I got Ben's redemption. But it was given so little emotional weight that it felt like a checklist item on a large list of fanservice. I just can't understand how they let this hot garbage out of the editing room.

IWhile this movie probably only deserves an 8 (that's my personal opinion, although I admit objectively it should be only around a 7), I feel like a lot of people aren't giving this movie a chance and aren't really thinking for themselves. I think the nostalgia and hype that surrounded new Star Wars movies has also fully worn off and I think this movie will age much better than the Force Awakens and the Last Jedi. Really, this was actually the most enjoyable of the sequel trilogy, in my opinion, and overall felt like the most authentic Star Wars movie since Episode 3 or Rogue One (I haven't seen Solo though). Yes, it still had moments that felt weird and honestly shouldn't be in the movie like the Last Jedi, but there weren't nearly as many as in the previous movie and they weren't always consistently awful (and some even had redeeming parts). Furthermore, it was the most original and enthralling story of the sequels and had some really great moments as well (unlike the tedious and subpar Force Awakens). Expand

So basically a Palpatine takes everything everything from the Skywalkers, including their name, with zero effort or character development. This movie adds nothing to the lore and does nothing except try to fix all of the mistakes of the last movie. Any real Star Wars fan will see this and the rest of this dumpster fire of a trilogy for what it is. An unnecessary, low effort, poorly planned cash grab. Do not mistake these films for actual sequels. They are not. Lucas wrote an actual sequel trilogy. Demand that those be made.

It's a greatest hits of Star Wars, but it forgot the songs we actually freaking like. The redemption arc is forced. The ultimate villain arc is forced. The final battles are super forced. The understanding of the Force is turned into how we played make-believe as kids - the Force could do whatever we wanted whenever we wanted.

Let's talk about the legacy of Rian Johnson that looms large over this last installment of this franchise. Rian Johnson effectively ended the trilogy one film earlier by killing off the character of Luke Skywalker, by killing off the main overarching villain and by killing off the entire trilogy story in TLJ. This means that J J Abrams has now inherited what can only be described as a wheezing, lurching and asthmatic dumpster fire of what could have otherwise been one of the best endings to one of the most beloved franchise stories in cinematic history. It is apparent, through the lack of plot, the lack of characterization, the need to introduce new characters at this late stage (why???) and through the return of Palpatine, that J J Abrams has found himself in a tight corner that, itself, contains even more smaller corners than his beloved mystery box. The plot, such as it is, does not exist in any compelling way. It is, literally, the cinematic equivalent of a 16 bit endless runner game. Point A to point B to point X, Y and Z. The first half is a 'Get this McGuffin' then 'Go there for this McGuffin' plot. And, somehow, it fails at this too. The character of Rey (Daisy RIdley), being so OP, still has no idea of what it is like to properly fail at doing something...anything...even once. She inherits the unearned mantle of 'Skywalker' through choice, not through any suffering or trials that would seriously test her. She manages to defeat the Emperor in her first, only and VERY brief encounter with him. It is an unfitting and ignoble end to the character of Luke Skywalker as well as that of Emperor Palpatine. It also takes a huge dump over the mythos of Star Wars to have the Emperor return. Much like the rest of the sequel trilogy, there is little of anything new here. The Rise of Skywalker is a poor man's Return of The Jedi. If you like watching movies that punch you in the face until you're numb with exposition and still don't make sense, if you like watching movies where the requirement is that you don't have to care about any of the characters to get to the end of an engorged run time and, if you like watching movies where the stakes are so minimal because it's literally just a race to the closing credits, then you'll enjoy this film. I can't and won't tell you to save your cash and boycott this film. But, BOY...do I like COTS... Expand

Just one example: thousands of star destroyers with the same planet destroying power as a Death Star. There is a reason so much time and resources were spent to crate a battle platform the size of a moon...and then a even bigger light side force jumps in....it even hurts to write about this idiotic plot....

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Es tan mala que no sé por dónde empezar. Todo en esta película ocurre por que sí: El emperador está vivo, como? La respuesta literal es que nadie sabe cómo ha sobrevivido. Rey es su nieta? Pues resulta que tuvo un hijo... Ummm vale bien lo compro pero me cuesta creermelo. Los caballeros Ren... Mejor ni los menciono por que dan mucha pena. Rey no es una Jedi, no sabe pelear y se inventa poderes de la nada. La muerte de Leía es lamentable, no han sabido darle un final digno y han hecho lo primero que se les ha ocurrido. A Fin le han querido dar más protagonismo y ojalá no lo hubiesen hecho ya que se han inventado que es sensible a la fuerza... Madre mía la escena del Destructor Imperial, que entre los miles de ellos que hay dice uno al hazar y acierta cual es el que da las órdenes... De que en la batalla final solo ataque una sola nave enemiga no voy ni a hablar por que es una auténtica estupidez, literalmente solo hay una nave que dispara cuando tienen una flota de miles de naves preparadas para arrasar planetas enteros... El tema del espía imperial, Hanks ha sido un pez gordo toda la trilogía y sale una escena y le pegan un tiro y lo matan, que fuerte... Hay tantas cosas mal en esta película que no puedo recordar todas Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Horrific. Truly. JJ Abrams didn't make a film. He made a trailer that is almost three hours long. It's not homage, as some reviewers have gamely claimed: it's pastiche, merely drawing elements from past films for a second or two before dropping them inexplicably and racing on. It's clear that Abrams believes that hyperactive plotting should suffice to distract his viewers from bad writing and bad directing. Take just one element from TLJ - the fight between Rey and Kylo on one side vs Snoke's Guard. That was a beautifully paced and choreographed battle, with exquisite cinematography. You'll find nothing comparable in TROS: all group lightsaber fights are scrappy affairs that are over in a few clumsy seconds.

Before TROS came out I joked with friends that the unimaginative Abrams would probably come up with some new version of the Death Star the way he did in TFA. I was kidding, and yet that's basically what he's done with 10,000 Star Destroyers that magically now each have the power to blow up entire planets. Guess those Death Star, Death Star 2 and Starkiller Base designers were just idiots. Plus it turns out no-one really dies, ever. The Emperor didn't die, so I guess all those great feelings we had at the end of TROTJ were misplaced. Kylo gets stabbed and hey presto, turns out Rey has magically learned how to revive people, so he gets better. Then Rey dies and hey presto again, turns out Kylo who's just been thrown into an energy pit can really take a punch so he's okay, gets up and revives Rey. Oh but then he dies, and Rey doesn't try to help him. Because...she's a dick? Who knows? It just goes on. Mindless cameos, including by JJ's idiot fat friend who he inflicts on audiences of all his works just because he can. We're supposed to care about Poe and Finn, even though they probably both should have been killed in TFA and are insipid cardboard characters. Forest troopers suddenly show up in a desert environment because research is hard, I guess. Stormtroopers still have no aim. The series took a wrong turn with Episode VI, and I, II and III were weird and dull. But VII, VIII and IX should have been the moment to shine for a new generation of writers and directors. I'm one of those people who liked VIII because it at least tried to go in some newer and more interesting directions. But the two JJ movies ought to be burnt and purged from the canon. Really feel like part of my childhood has been violated by this film

Still better then Last Jedi, which was not a Star Wars movie. This one however is a extremely hostile shape-shifting extraterrestrial organism as a result of poor writing and no trilogy concept at the beginning. Ian McDiarmid acting is flawless, Rey is doing good as well. I was very bored in every scene which was not involving the lightsaber. I liked Kylo Ren at the first movie. VIII. and now IX. made him one of the most worthless force user villains ever in SW universe. Ending was unfortunate and weak. Music not very original as well as the previous themes. Clearly just rip-offs, no creativity. Handling the continuation of the Saga is a disgrace and error which should be addressed. I will pray that Disney will learn their lesson and we will get something better from it in the future. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolutely horrendous. There are so many things that are still left unanswered AND new questions that we'll likely never get answers to. Here are some that are bothering me...

How is Rey so powerful? Saying that she's a Palpatine is just lazy writing and I'll show why right now. Palpatine is dead, and should have remained dead. Bringing him back to life completely undermines the whole Skywalker story! Now all the work, all the suffering Luke and Anakin went through- it's all for nothing. Just so we can have Rey, the complete Mary Sue defeat Palpatine? Why? Rey gets almost no training and these little snippets of her training in TLJ and this movie aren't enough. They're not convincing. She's doing things with the force we've never seen before. Who did she learn them from? Leia? How did Leia learn them? From Luke? Yet we've never seen Luke heal anyone with the force, so that isn't convincing.

Speaking of Luke- how did Maz find Anakin's/Luke's lightsaber? She said it was a "story for another time" in TFA, but we didn't get the story in TLJ or in this movie. Where did she get it? How? Why?

Why is Hux the spy? The way he ousts himself as the spy is ridiculous. His motivations make no sense. He says he doesn't want the Resistance to win, but he doesn't want Kylo to win. That just shows he has no allegiance. The Resistance has no reason to protect him once he's served his purpose as Hux doesn't care for their cause, and Kylo wont care to take Hux back as Hux has betrayed him.

Why is Rose completely sidelined in this movie? I don't like her character at all, but there's no satisfying conclusion between her and Finn. Instead it looks like Rose was replaced by this Jana chick, so we don't have to deal with the blunders made by Rian through the character of Rose. That's just lazy though.

Why are Finn, Rey, and Poe always bickering? We're supposed to believe these are people who are good friends, yet they bicker like they just met each other or never bothered to smooth out any problems they've ever had with each other.

I've got more questions, but I'll move on from that...for now.

There's tons of fan service, but it's insulting. It's as if Disney thinks Star Wars fans are stupid. The kiss between Rey and Kylo seems stupid as they really don't look like a convincing couple. JJ's attempts to make you care about what's going on through Leia's, Luke's, Han's, and Lando's appearances fall flat. Why should I care? You've ruined and then killed him. You turned Han into some sort of deadbeat and then killed him too. Leia is apparently a full fledged Jedi, but Carrie Fisher's gone now, and yet you parade her around in this movie as terrible CGI, instead of giving her a respectful sendoff in TLJ. Oh and Lando? He's just here for nostalgia's sake. Of course, Palpatine is here for pretty much the same reason....nostalgia.

Sure, the movie looks incredible, but I expect that from Disney. What I didn't expect, was that I'd feel so uninterested in the major battle near the end of the movie. This is supposed to be epic and I don't care. I don't care at all. I couldn't care less if Rey, Finn, Poe, Rose, Janna, etc die, because I know so little about them and worse, Rey and Rose aren't even likable. Now you've made it worse by having Rey be the chosen one, undermining the Skywalkers' story. You even have her take on the Skywalker name, which is disgusting as it doesn't feel earned at ALL. Good job, Disney. Your main character, the one we should all love as much as we love Luke, is liked about as much as Jar Jar Binks. Fantastic.

It's funny...I decided to watch this movie because I'd heard about all the leaks and thought I'd at least get a good laugh out of this train-wreck. Instead, I was bored, annoyed, and by the end, disgusted. Even with all the leaks, watching all of this unfold was still simply appalling. To make matters worse, it's clear Disney is doing HUGE amounts of damage control. I've seen so many 10/10 reviews that say the same thing, in the same words, and with the same sentence structure. If this movie is a 10/10 to so many people, why aren't they going into great detail about it? Instead I see a few 7 and 8s giving some details and lots of negative reviews detailing just how much they hate the movie, and more importantly, WHY they hate the movie.

This movie is absolutely horrendous and even worse than The Last Jedi. It's NOT a "satisfying end to the trilogy" and no amount of fake reviews is going to change that. It really is the worst Star Wars movie ever. Skip this one and watch the Mandalorian instead. At least that's actually decent.

1/10. (Updated Dec, 22, 2020) Ok, so I'm going to add more stuff..
Zorii Bliss is a weak character. Her motivations changed from being angry at Poe for leaving her behind on Kijimi to wanting to help him, Rey, and Finn so quickly that it'd make your head spin.

How did Lando get all those Resistance ships on his side in so little time?!
Still a 1/10.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. By any means, this is not a good movie. It can be enjoyable if you are a certain type of Star Wars fan, and you don't mind holding your breath from start to finishing and ignoring a ton of plot holes and over-the-top retconning.

Whether you liked The Last Jedi or not, it is undeniable that it at least tried to make something different. Here everything is back to a binary good versus evil, in an attempt to appease old school Star Wars fans, going as far as using a villain which makes zero sense.

The Last Jedi broke free of the "everything has to be connected" and fully accepted the "the force works in mysterious ways" mantra, and it could have had so much potential if this movie just accepted it. But no, it had to give in to TLJ haters, so it crammed way too much content into one single movie, it retconnted everything there was to retcon (Leia was a Jedi, and she was more powerful than Luke! Rey is Palpatine's granddaughter! And Leia and Luke knew about this! Luke was searching for the Sith base! Snoak was Palpatine's puppet! And of course, Palpatine is ALIVE despite falling for thousands of feet, exploding, and having the Death Star itself explode around him!).

In a hindsight, this movie clearly shows how there was zero planning behind this new trilogy. This makes what Marvel achieved with Endgame look even more amazing.

Creeper3455Dec 22, 2019
This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Before we start the review, I have to say...Tenet looks **** awesome! That prologue definitely opened me to a lot of possibilities as to how that movie will be about, besides a time version of Inception that happens to be in a Spy Movie. That "Filmed in IMAX Film" gave me a super great feeling, dude...
Too bad that, after that, the movie began.

You know, it's not often that I get an insufferable Movie Experience like this one (both for the movie and the Audience, especially considering one of these happens during a Universal Movie), and I'm sad to call The Rise Of Skywalker one of those experiences, because, for one, it started really strong. Palpatine's alive, Kylo Ren's looking for him, only to find out that Palpy's been internally toying around with Kylo. That could lead to some great moments. The Resistance is dependant on looking for a MacGuffin that could put an end to the First (or Final) Order? Ok, it's weak, but I'm sure I'll get a kick out of it. And, for 30-40 mins it was that. But once the first confrontation between Rey and Kylo happens, and we see that Rey is a Palpatine, that's where the movie just skyrocketed in a Pit Of Death, blowing itself up like a Creeper (pun intended).

Because from then on, the Screenplay gets so rushed and messy, that it feels obsessed with JJ Abrams and Chris Terrio (as well as Colin Trevorrow and Derek Connolly?) pulling everything they can out of their asses to make sure we have a coherent story that serves as a great conclusion, while really it just is "another Franchise Movie". Tons of ships flying towards 1000s of Star Destroyers to blow some **** up in a Return Of The Jedi-wannabe climax to try and have some Spectacle, characters (new and old. Poor Lando) that aren't fleshed out enough, and plot twists that are just the most random **** they sometimes made me scream or question in anger at the things they did.

Just so you know, they also rip off a sequence from Godzilla - King Of The Monsters. **** GODZILLA - KING OF THE MONSTERS (where Palpatine shoots lightning bolts out of the sky to "destroy" every flying thing, both good and bad? I've already seen that, thanks. It was really real and brutal before. Also yeah, still have to see some more of King Ghidorah). I don't know why they did that, but it most certainly resulted in an Earrape that I don't wanna hear ever again. If it gets an Oscar nom for Sound Mix because of the Earrape, I'll be so mad.

And the case with The Last Jedi is mostly on the Screenplay's decision, making it a Love/Hate situation. A "will they/won't they" scenario, because either, Characters feel so desperate narrating backstories from that movie, or they just ruin the whole Force Conversation thing by making objects suddenly disappear from one another's location. Like okay, that also happened in Last Jedi, but only for a few seconds, and with smaller objects, not Darth Vader's burned helmet.

But hey, at least the technical department is still strong. The Art Department is once again great eye candy to look at, despite the Cinematography being too quick in parts, and I love the new look of Palpatine (the menacing figure moving with the help of a machine, GLaDOS Style? Cool!).

But again, I shouldn't be complaining too much because "the Fans will love this laziness!". Look, I'm not stopping you to see it, because if you want, go ahead. I'm sure you'll like it better than I did. But if you loved The Last Jedi as much as I did, then be sure of the random madness that this movie will give you. Not awful, but certainly a spectacularly insufferable and artful mess.

This is a different kind of bad that TLJ was, but its just as bad if not worse.
There is probably more lore destroying in this movie than the TLJ did.

Disney does not understand STAR WARS, the FORCE, character building, world building, story telling, moving pacing, ANYTHING!!

If you are newer SW fan you might like it, but there is no reason older SW fans would like this at all. This is essentially a Marvel type movie with a Star Wars paint job.

WTF did I watch!!

I am honestly shocked anyone likes this and is trying to defend it and telling people to ignore low score reviews.

This movie is at least 2 movies crammed into one, maybe even 3.

Some things in this movie would have been okay if they were introduced in EP7 or 8, but how new things were introduced and used was a complete mess!!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While the actors are excellent and the story is good, they tried to fit way too many stuff inside a single movie.
The plot ends up seeming too rushed and the movie doesn't "breathe" due to the constant action.

This is not a movie, not a saga, not a space opera. This is comics, way different type of art. And there is nothing from Star Wars except visual style and several characters.

And there is nothing from Star Wars except visual style and several characters. It is sad that this story ended up like this. This was a huge mistake to ask mister J.J. Abrams to create this. Unfortunately his vision of Star Wars became another Star Track series in the Star Wars universe. Watching all these three movies I`ve tried to get this feeling ... "A long time a go in a galaxy, far far away." And - NO. Nothing in return. And I won`t agree with Solo family storyline. One time movie. And please, mister J.J. Abrams - stop thinking that having awesome visuals can make a win win movie. Expand

Utterly unfulfilling, and the capstone to a trilogy that from day one was more about creating a sellable brand than it was advancing the Star Wars story. Expand

plot contrivenses and most likely a 4 and a half hour movie crammed into 2 hours and 30 minutes makes this the most dissapointing film of the sequel triology of movies. a very rushed, and half assed way to end a legendary saga.

Was refreshing to see it was **** like The Last Jedi. I was afraid I'd leave disappointed.

It's pretty sad to see the studio trying to shore up the review balance by having either algorithms or humans generate fake positive reviews. Take a look at a sample of them. Score typically of ten points with a few nines and eights in there to throw people off the scent. But the pattern is clear. The review itself is one or two sentences and incredibly this is the single only review ever written by this "person". The profile name looks generated and the profile photo (if there is one) appears either scraped off the web or itself generated. Shame on Disney and Lucasfilm.

Original review submitted on Dec 20, 2019:
Slightly better than "The Last Jedi" which is faint praise indeed. However, this is the reckoning we get when the machine known as Disney gets control of the most beloved sci-fi movie franchise of all time. A creative abyss. Like others have noted, the filmmakers seem to literally be check-boxing every nostalgic note from the original series. Some of the visuals are stunning but the script and acting is so flat that you just want the damn thing to be over as quickly as possible. On to "The Mandalorian" and whatever the Mouse has in mind next. Mercifully, this saga has finally been shuttered.

This movie is so neuter that you don't know after leaving the cinema whether you like it or not.
