In a crusading conclusion to a troubled trilogy, JJ Abrams brings his perception of a fan's perspective back to Star Wars in a way that suffers due to inconsistent storytelling and light-speed pacing that doesn't give a single moment enoughIn a crusading conclusion to a troubled trilogy, JJ Abrams brings his perception of a fan's perspective back to Star Wars in a way that suffers due to inconsistent storytelling and light-speed pacing that doesn't give a single moment enough time to breath. Where the original trilogy felt like the singular creative vision of one man assisted by many and prone to happy accidents, this trilogy feels like a fads love letter that devolves into just the worst kind of Twitter argument. And THAT leads to one of the only things I think both fans and haters of TLJ can agree on - - that what this trilogy lacked more than anything else was a strong creative direction. In terms of story, character, and tone, it just seems that the this trilogy a missing a certain Feigi-ness. What JJ did in this movie is essentially ignore 90% of what was set up in TLJ and spend the first half of this movie setting up the movie he wanted to make, throwing in occasional, more obvious jabs at TLJ throughout seemingly to appease and service all the fans that felt so wronged by it. I think some people that hated TLJ will love this film for doing that but to me it just comes off as inconsistent storytelling. Now to focus in on specifically this movie...

I think, with the first half of this movie, JJ and the other co-writers in this film fell into an issue that many video game quest lines suffer from: McGuffin Russian Doll. Meaning that throughout the movie the characters were tracking down an object that led to another object, that led to a new character, etc. From my perspective, it amounts to making excuses to take your characters to new location after new location. And it is that faux pas in storytelling device selection that I think accelerated the pacing to a point of ridiculousness. Moments that should have hit like a train were give no time to breath. Character motivations, trials, and tribulations were skipped through like Netflix's 1.5x viewing speed feature was turned on. Don't get me wrong, there were plenty of moments I enjoyed in that first half, but truly, almost everything just felt rushed for that whole first half of the film. I do think the second half caught itself a bit, but without the fleshed out setup that was required of the first half, everything I liked about the second half was somewhat dulled. Without the context of the trilogy, I actually lean ever so slightly towards liking this film. But with that context (which cant be ignored) I'm much more on the fence about it. I enjoyed the ride while I was on it, but after taking some time to think about how this final piece fits into the puzzle that is the Skywalker saga, I'm a bit disappointed.

The entire film follows the dynamics, a slightly confusing plot. A bit of propaganda that we are all even, cute kisses at the end of the film between the girls, the resistance pilots. May neocommunism and world peace come. The action on the spot in some places ran a goosebump on what’s on the screen. Almost like in the good old days. The episode is far from a failure, as many toxic users think. Daisy Ridley in the role of Rey, who in the beginning builds herself up as an unworthy really great Jedi. A steeper villain than Adam Driver aka Kylo Ren must still be sought. Each actor gave his best to my personal opinion. The rebels and the Imperials smash each other for too long. I am glad that they are leaving for a hell. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Это простой очередной кино-аттракцион он Disney. Никаких драмматических моментов. Я прихожу в кино за разными эмоциями, в том числе, чтобы погрустить, а в фильме почти же все смерти смерти липовые. За весь фильм умерли только Кайло Рен и Лея Органа, но первого вообще не было жаль, потому что он всё время был антегонистом и только в последние минуты фильма он вроде бы примкнул к светлой стороне. Короче, можно посмотреть только если ты домохозяйка, которая просто хочет позырить на очередной диснеевский фильм с незамысловатым сюжетом, красивой картинкой.

Короче, я бы этому фильму поставил 1, если бы не музыкальное сопровождение.

this movie is by far the worst one seen so far, not only are powers taken out of nowhere and they could have served other protagonists to avoid deaths like the Qui-Gon Jinn, being able to simply obi wan heal him with the crazy healing abilitythis movie is by far the worst one seen so far, not only are powers taken out of nowhere and they could have served other protagonists to avoid deaths like the Qui-Gon Jinn, being able to simply obi wan heal him with the crazy healing ability they gave him to king and that is another negative point the crazy powers that king develops in this movie do not make sense like they have never had in this series of movies but here still more he is being able to learn 1 skill of a high rank sith as the rays of the force 2 new ones that have never been seen in the saga as being able to teleport sabers and heal people convenience right? that is what abounds in this movie, as palpatine is still alive they do not explain it to you he is simply alive for the convenience of the script and this also destroys everything that luke achieved in addition to taking away all the weight that the redemption of darth vader / Anakin Skywalker had It also creates stupid things like that the star destroyers can only have one command antenna per ship. You are telling me that they can make hundreds of ships that can destroy planets and that you can also make a command antenna to control all ships. and you can make a miniature version of this to place it in a star destroyer but you can't do the same with all the other ships that the hell is this, another hole would be that the millennial falcon uses its space jump 3 times in a row and nothing happens to it convenience gentlemen and another hole would be that you can dig on top of a destroyer and nothing happens to them and as if all this were not enough they can destroy Go ships to bloody arrows, and besides this is not all, they also make jumps that characters reach their destination without any explanation, such as Kailo Ren who arrives at the palpatin lair when before he was standing in the middle of nowhere and the most unforgivable of all. They clickbait with the title because in this they tell you that it will be the promotion of the Skywalkers when that never happens because all the Skywalkers die, where is the **** promotion of the Skywalkers if they all end up dead? that is all that in short the film seemed to me a trash can that not only creates without plot senses (as palpatine from one moment to another pass from wanting to kill the king to want it alive), uses the plot conveniences in his favor (making For example, the millennial falcon does not crash after making 3 space jumps), it puts a very feminine character just for being feminine (king learning 3 rotissimo skills having trained little and nothing) but also destroys everything that the word Skywalker means the score of 0 is earned Expand

The Prequel trilogy have many flaws but having a cynical agenda and a lack of imagination wasn't one of them. Episode 9 is poorly thought out and its intentions highly questionable as JJ Abrams seems more interested in trying to undo the previous film rather than build upon it. As a result this film end up being completely unsatisfying and derails this trilogy completely by exposing, if it wasn't clear before, that there was no plan in place from the start. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. (I apologize in advence for some mistakes I may make, english is not my first language, so sorry.) This movie is honestly a lot better then I thought it would be. While the first 2 movies made Rey's developtment a little weird and hard to notice, this movie makes it obvious that it's her journey and I love it for that. Rey in this movie is not perfect, she struggles, she is impuslive, careless at times (she almost killed chewie) and she thinks for the most part it's her blood that will turn her into the very thing she fears the most. Now, Kylo. When you first watch it you will wonder how Kylo will turn good since the movie's name is The Rise of Skywalker and Kylo is the last Skywalker. And it makes so much sense, in that scene where Han speaks to him it's not really Han but his guilt towards killing Han that changed him and proved him wrong on his logic "kill it if you have to" because killing will not make you go past it in fact it will haunt you, but it can be for the better.

The movie is not perfect though, for example what the hell was the thing with the knife ? Couldn't they have just found something else like a tracker to find the artifact or something like this ? But honestly that is just a few things that didn't ruin the movie as a whole. Now the most contreversial part of the movie: Palpatine. He is great. His inclusion made sense for explaining why Rey was so powerful, even if I'm not a fan of "you can pnly use the Force because of lineage" but it also gives an intersting moral of "blood doesn't define who you are" with Rey overcoming the biggest threat of the whole galaxy and embodiment of all the siths which she was supposed to become. Now something that seemed weird but makes sense, why does Palpatine have thousands of planet busting ships ? Well improving techonoly and also he has been hiding in the shadows for another 30 years ! He was definitly preparing something. Now on to the more superficial stuff like the music the visuals the fights etc. All are great, the music may not be totally original but it's inclusion in certain precise scenes makes those scenes much more impactful. The visuals are also great with great shots, colors, and places that I wish I could know more about. The fight scenes are very good, you can see Rey's impulsiveness which makes her weak against Kylo, those scenes are not here nor are they too perfect like in the prequels, those fights feel real. Overall great characters, great story, great moral at the end, of course it's no even close to the original trilogy but it's a very good movie that could've made the sequel trilogy bad in the end.

Under-cooked characters, overdone plot devices. The film is largely a fan service effort that manages to please no one, and sees the trilogy out with a noisy whimper.

I'm not ashamed to say that I cried. I was very satisfied. What seemed too much to comprehend on first viewing comes across as much more measured and balanced the second time around. Of course, you have to suspend disbelief, but you shouldn't take it too seriously, anyway. It's only a Star Wars film. If anything, I would have liked to have seen more of the Rose Tico character. I was pleased that the lesbian kiss was included. It might have been a very small gesture, but it's a step in the right direction and is promsing for the expanded universe. For the record, I personally liked The Last Jedi and am pleased overall with the final trilogy. This final iteration made me want to watch the whole saga all over again for the overall story arc, even the first three (I actually didn't mind the third one). I know there are a lot of impassioned people out there, as they have a strong emotional investment in the storyline, and some people are very precious about their sci-fi mythos, but were the films ever really anything more than swashbuckling popcorn movies? I can't believe there is so much hate for this movie. I think people take the work that goes into movies of this calibre for granted - a lot of hard of work and dedication has gone into this and clearly they care about this universe. I think it's an incredible achievement and the cast and crew should be congratulated for a fitting end to it all. Babu Frik rocks! Thanks, J.J. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Technically it's not as bad as rogue one or last jedi etc. It is politicized but what's funny that's not what makes it bad. What makes it bad is just that it's a bad movie where main character is flawless to the bone and nothing can ever stop her. Everyone else have absolutely nothing to offer and there are no shades of Grey. You can just support the only possible choice or die.

. And you see i even know why it's like that. Reason is because it is atargetted as a movie with a clear message for the kids. There can't be any unambiguous messages for children viewers to challenge the status quo.

Il est temps pour Disney de repartir sur des bases "neuves" pour les prochaines... euh... trilogies...

Personnellement, j'en ai un peu marre de revoir les vieilles gloires faire un petit coucou dans des scénarios bricolés par des stagiaires... il s'y ridiculisent pour la gamelle et font penser à... "comment c'était mieux avant" en fait.

Parce que à propos de grand n'importe quoi, cet "épisode 9", c'est vraiment n'importe quoi de A à Z ! des affaires de famille comme ça, non mais sans déconner ! qui a pondu des énormités pareilles... vous avez poussé trop fort sur le trône, je crois, la veine au front ! et il n'en est sorti rien de bon...

L'autre gros souci (inhérent à cette trilogie entière d'ailleurs) c'est à la fois les erreurs de distribution et les erreurs d'écriture de ces personnages : le soldat renégat incarné par le tocard Boyega (parce qu'il fallait un noir) ; l'abruti de pilote général (lol ?) incarné par l'abruti Isaac (parce qu'il fallait un hispanique) et enfin la tronche d'andouille de frérot en carton incarné par Driver (parce qu'il fallait -au moins- un blanc mais à tronche de cake).

Finalement, seule Rey (la petite Daisy Ridley) s'en sort avec plus que les honneurs, surtout dans cet épisode final où elle affirme des sentiments forts voire brutaux... mais étouffés fatalement par la doctrine Disniaise et le "grand final" qui deveait tout clôturer en beauté n'est qu'un pétard mouillé !

Les 2 points vont donc à Daisy et... à un certain revenant... c'est tellement ridicule que ça m'a bien fait rigoler, du coup ! comment ont-ils pu valider le retour de ce "personnage" ?... alors là c'est un mystère ! encore un stagiaire qui passait par là, ramasser les gobelets et les mégots, je suppose.

Another remake. This is a remake trilogy.
A bad film, with many things without explanation, jedi powers have become like Marvel superpowers.
I'm speechless..

1) In episode 6, didn't Palpatine's body incinerate, neither after falling into the core of black death, or following the explosion of black death itself? Impossible.
2) If they introduce the power to teleport objects, I expect that introduced any power, such as making disappear stars , creating planets, .....
3) With the exception of those who manage to transform into Force ghost , when a jedi dies he loses his identity.
Obi Wan in episode 6 said he can't interfere with the events, so it's impossible that they spent their energies on Rey.


As a result I stopped following the current canon, I only follow the star wars products prior to 2014 and I ignore everything else.

A sentence summarizes all the things that there would be to say: George Lucas did not participate in the Premier of this film.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I came in with piss poor expectations because I read the leaks. Yeah they’re all true. But for whatever reason, TROS didn't leave me with as bad of a taste in my mouth as TLJ did. Maybe it's the details that aren't outlined in the leaks. Maybe it's the erasure of a lot of TLJ's mistakes. Or maybe the chemistry the cast has built up for each other shone through. Whatever it was, I came out of the theater feeling better than I expected. I would say TROS sticks the landing, but breaks its leg in the process. It’s not a movie without flaws, and it has many, but it's tolerable on its own as the end of the sequels. This mediocre cash grab trilogy ends in a whimper, as expected. But since they forced this movie to also wrap up all 9 Episodes of the Star Wars saga, it does a bad job of concluding everything in totality.

The Good: John Williams kicks butt, as always. He really makes you feel more intimate with the scenes. The graphics are amazing as well -- a staple of any modern Star Wars film. Ian McDiarmid knocks his role out of the park and really gives you a haunted house monster kind of feeling. More on him later though. In terms of narrative, TROS tries to undo a lot of the damage caused by TLJ, so you can really think of this as a sequel to TFA. Rey actually being a somebody, or clarifying that Luke was actually doing something important on Ach-To was something that needed to happen, in my book. I didn’t like TFA, but it drew our attention to those possibilities on purpose only for TLJ to throw them away without any payoff. So at least we get some answers to things we were forced to pay attention to early on. TROS treats the characters we know and love with more respect than TLJ. Luke is still dead, but he's more or less back to normal and makes subtle jabs at his own poor portrayal in TLJ. Finn actually gets stuff done for once without referencing his mopping skills or being the butt of a joke. These are just a few things that I believe were much needed corrections. But the details of some of these changes aren't done well and end up harming the movie.


The Bad: The movie has a lot of issues. And many are universe-breaking issues. Pacing is **horrible** during the first half of the movie. If I didn’t read the leaks beforehand, I would have been totally lost. There was just too much information crammed into one movie, many of it involved giving hand wavy explanations to things shot down in TLJ, then moving along before you can think about it. If they weren't going to do it well, they should have left it alone. Narratively, Palpatine was clearly a hail mary that I wish they explained, because it undercuts Vader’s sacrifice in Ep 6. It’ll probably be explained in a book for extra Di$ney bucks or something. Rey's lineage reveal was expected, as I said earlier. But the answer they gave had no buildup at all because it's clear Palpatine was never considered for this story until recently. Subsequently, Rey choosing to be a Skywalker fell flat and I don't agree with it, considering she had parents who cared about her and she barely knows the Skywalkers outside of 1 year with Leia. They should have either left her a Palpatine or made her an actual Skywalker from the start -- don't sit on the fence. The love story with Rey and Ben is also pretty cringe, considering he tried to kill her multiple times and I just feel like it’s a very toxic dynamic that has no business being on screen. Force heal and resurrection is a can of worms they should have left in video games, in my opinion, because it breaks the universe in a similar way hyperspace ramming did. And lastly, I thought the Final Order had a convenient weakness that felt cheap. Really you can eliminate all of those ISDs by blowing up one? Lol.


In summary, I think this is may be the best movie of the ST, but this isn't saying much. It's not an *obvious*, beat by beat rip off of the OT like TFA was. And it isn't mean-spirited to the audience like TLJ was. Abrams didn't really have anywhere to go, considering where TLJ left off. But Abrams did too much, too poorly. The ST as a whole is, without a doubt, worse than the prequels. 1) There's no overall story connecting all 3 movies together, so it's a very disjointed experience in terms of tone and narration. 2) To varying degrees, all three movies reused the plots of each of the OT movies, so there's a lack of creativity. 3) This trilogy is basically Rian Johnson and JJ Abrams undoing each other and the audience pays for it, further enraging an already divided fanbase. These failures fall squarely on Disney’s shoulders for a lack of leadership and vision. I'm just glad the Skywalker story can finally rest in peace. Our old friends have been abused for long enough. Now that the curtain is closed, it's clear George Lucas is really the only one who can do Star Wars right. His prequels had issues, but they had a soul. They had imagination, creativity and daring. These new movies don't have any of that.

I think the actors did a good job, specially Adam Driver, but they can't save the mess. I like Daisy Ridley as Rey, too bad she plays the stereotypical and generic strong female protagonist (Mary Sue) with no development or weaknesses, just innately the best at everything. Then we have the multicultural and inclusive good guys, that fulfill every quota, against the evil white males. Action scenes are good if you can ignore the many cliches and deus ex machina that take away all tension.

This movie is a huge disrespect to Star Wars lore and plotwise it was impossible to recover from the mess made by the last one. Masterclass on how to ruin a franchise.

I had never been so mad, sad and disappointed while watching a movie until now. However, Fallen Order, The Mandalorian and Clone Wars compensate this failure.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The plot is rushed and filled with holes (so many good questions for another time: when you buy the various books I guess), the action scenes are extremely generic, the lightsaber battles are poorly choreographed (especially compared to the prequels that went all out on that front) and Abrams tries to deliver some emotional moments but they mostly feel cheap and flat: Chewbacca and C3PO fake deaths, "Dark Rey" 5 seconds scene (did anybody actually think she would turn?), the Reylo kiss (yikes, totally out of place)... Also, that's not how the f-ing force works! Force healing, Force vision (that's how Kylo has that conversation with Han Solo apparently), Force Skype calls, Force Skype battles (dafuq?), Force Amazon deliveries and that "Dyad" **** which origin is never explained...

Anyway, Youtube is filled with videos explaining it better and in more details than me. Definitely the last nail in the coffin of that sad Disney trilogy.

Disney certainly tried very hard to destroy the legendary universe and the childhood of many people. When all these creators of movies and TV series will understand that the promotion of feminism will not lead to good. If you can't make movies, don't do it. George Lucas had a soul in movies.

Then Abrams comes back and tries to duct-tape together what's left of this mess, only to fail spectacularly by destroying all of the Skywalker saga and George Lucas's vision even further. Bravo, Disney. Every time I think things can't get any worse for Star Wars, you've managed to pull it off. Why do you keep doing this? To quote the Simpsons, "Stop! Stop, he's already dead..." Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. coming out of the film I felt disappointed. I feel bad for the people who work at Lucas film that love star wars as much as I do that had to create this mess of a film. It was rushed, try to fix tlj, making up forces powers like the force is used to move the plot. the interesting plot which did not get explored (Finn had to tell Rey something but never does). bring Palpatine back was a joke. this whole trilogy undermines Anakin's sacrifice and the victory of the rebels. the avenger's endgame ending was uncreative and just dumb. JJ just made everything bigger to create suspense not using emotion as Rots or ROTJ did. ben solo dies 3 times (ship crash, stabbed, yeets off a cliff) than they expect us to feel emotional for his actual death, it just left me wondering what just happened and how did he die. I just hope the executive at Disney leaves the film making to true fans who know how star wars work and let the filmmakers have a proper production and a clear road map before they making the film.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all I want to make it clear that I am a star wars fan, but of those who are not against the new stories, I loved rebels, rogue one is very good and they have only defended themselves although tabien is a little lazy.

But this last trilogy is FATAL and this last movie is ABOMINABLE.
He leaves more questions than answers, he says goodbye to so many wonderful characters and in such bad ways that they are sad.

If I start to say everything that is wrong I honestly never end.
But let's talk about the most ridiculous:
-Armitage hux spy? his reasons, I don't want kylo ren to win !! what??
-Ray, she had enough of a little training to become almost a goddess of force who could have become empress !! osea sidius had to learn for years and she just woke up one day and is the greatest thing that has happened to her by force, she controls minds, throws lightning bolts, she has a super sixth Jedi sense and she has HEALING POWERS, she only needs to throw laser your eyes and freeze with your breath
-kylo ren osea how many times he was asked to be good suddenly he loses against ray his han appears, that nobody tells us where he comes from or if he is not a ghost in the force, but he appears and convinces him to become good, so just 3 minutes and zaz is good, says dad and throws his red saber
- The emperor bone this dude is suddenly dying and what a coincidence two super powerful jedis arrive, but that in front of a dying sith they cannot be more than insects and apart from what coincidence he can take life from them so he absorbs their energy and does everything powerful and begins to throw rays TO THE SKY, which is not the most surprising if not that with its rays it begins to destroy ALL of its enemies, but when those rays that brought down my ships are focused on ray for all rays with its saber, so WHAT? oh and so the WORST ENEMY SITH dies, the most evil and powerful dude, with his rays bounced by a saber -.-, so suddenly he is gone and the war and everything is over !!
BUM! Everyone happy; well less ben because he sacrifices himself to save ray and there with the death of ben the SKYWALKERs end there ah well but they do not end because ray decides not to be a palpatine, so just by his desire he says I am SKYWALKER then he dies lineage but does not die.

I'm sorry but I must say it:

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am admittedly not the biggest Star Wars fan, but I’ve tried to give each episode a try ( although I bailed on the last movie the minute Luke was sloppily drinking milk from some animals tit.) And the last best fav movie of mine and all time fav scene ever in the history of any Star Wars movie was when Darth Vader, the world’s best-ever bad ass hilariously told Wussy Luke Skywalker that he was his father! Lol. Listening to Luke cry and whine like a little bi@tsch was priceless and still remains as the best scene ever.

Fast forward to this pile of muck and what you’re watching is a tepid, politically correct, weak, made for millennials & kids, toy sales advertisement with zero meaningful storyline and just a bunch of meaningless action scenes stitched together (like this run-on sentence) that add very little to the overall storyline.

The women, as to be expected in this PC jaunt are the strong heroes in this 21st century made mess, while the men are portrayed as weak, ancillary add ons that are just along for the ride....

Even Kylo Ren is the wussiest, lamest, softest shelled, wimpiest bad guy ever portrayed. (Not to mention the worst casting in Star Wars history ever.). It’s painful to listen to and watch him speak he’s so weak... And there are so many times in this movie we are reminded of this. And why does he keep taking off his helmet? It’s like if Darth Vader took off his helmet and we got Pee Wee Herman being a bad guy. Disney writers never learned the value of holding their audience in suspense in favor of contract terms promising to show Adam Driver’s face X # of times. He should have NEVER been revealed- NEVER - until the final moment.

And somehow, out of nowhere they magically Seem to be walking and riding horses in outer space. WHAT THE WHAT!!??

The manner in which so many small things are undeveloped and so many fan services are so obtrusively made are sickening. The VFX, color and sound team did a stunning job and so did many of the actors, yet everything else about the rest of the plot was so bad and so demeaning. I felt more emotion in a 25 minute elder scrolls online quest than I did the entire movie. A lot of comedic beats seem to have been taken from Marvel's films. But it's NOT a marvel film and what made the universe and original movies powerful was the realness of the deaths, sacrifices and transformations the characters made. Now it's fake deaths, fan service LGBTQ relations (which could be beautiful and meaningful if they were developed), and moments on screen that are supposed to be seen as heartfelt when there was no emotional or relational buildup! This is insanely bad. UP's love story does a better job in 2 minutes than any of the relationships built up in this entire film. So saddened by this loss of opportunity. Expand

Awful Film. Great Profit. Box office: 1.058 billion USD
Budget: 275 million USD

A perfect example of why nothing is allowed to change in this world. Yoda. Go suck a f**k you tiny ba**ard. Finally, the only news is 'they' finally made something worse than The Avengers. This is not film! And this is not our world as it should be. Yours

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So, to recap the finale of The Last Jedi...

Rebel fleet is being pursued by the First Order, and manages to get to the last bolthole base in which to try and make a final stand. Luke Skywalker utilises the Force to combat Kylo Ren and buy the rebels more time. Po has been tasked with setting up a defence by Leia who came back from the dead and finally regains consciousness.
Rose has shown her love for Finn by crashing her land speeder into his as he was about to sacrifice himself by ramming the First Order's big laser gun thingie. And finally Rey creates a way for the Rebels to escape, all of them being able to cram on board the Millennium Falcon, but only with the clothes on their backs, after Admiral Holdo pulls of a light-speed attack manoeuvre which cripples the First Order's fleet.

Cue the opening crawl of The Rise of Skywalker (TRoS)...

And absolutely nothing is mentioned to reference anything from the prior film. Instead we learn that Emperor Palpatine has been calling out to Kylo Ren, and thus didn't die at the end of RotJ. But in order to find him he need some special, never before mentioned, Sith locator/map device which leads to a secret Sith base/temple/planet/whatever. So Ren is seen slaughtering some unnamed creatures to retrieve it. He heads there, and meets Palpatine who says he can offer Ren all the secrets of the Dark Side of the Force, in exchange for killing Rey...
And that's all in the first five minutes!!

What follows is two hours of utter nonsense as Rey and the gang go off in search of another one of these Sith map devices, while Ren is intent on killing her. We also discover that in the 30(?) years since the battle of Endor, Palpatine has had dozens of Star Destroyers built (and found tens of thousands of people to crew them) and wants to create the Last Order..

All of this culminates in Ren letting go of the Dark Side and re-embracing his own origins, whilst Rey has to come to terms with a revelation about her origins and the lure of the Dark Side. Eventually Rey and Ren take on Palpatine, and with a lot of self-sacrifice the Jedi are triumphant.

It's a terrible film though. The fact is pretty much junks everything from TFA and TLJ to go off in a completely different direction (story-wise) suggests that the writers couldn't find a way to continue the original narrative to a satisfactory conclusion. So, they just brought back Palpatine, offering up that new villain, rather than digging deeper into either Kylo Ren's or Rey's backgrounds.

The only saving grace are the special effects, the score and the commitment of the actors.

Ужасный сюжет, высосанная из пальца история. Кино для галочки. Худший в мире фансервис, я никогда в жизни не видел такого бесталанного и неуклюжего вкрапления элементов, должных вызывать ностальгию.

Камон! 1 шутка за фильм! Ни одной эмоции от начала до конца. Все дежурно далее некуда. Первый ААА фильм, который я перематывал.

Слава богу я не пошел в кино на этот лютый трэш.

Нет пафоса??? Ой ли! Главная актриса — сплошное сборище клишированной моторики и психофизики. Главный летчик — со времен Изгоя Один гробит кино своими напутственными речами уровня «как я провел это восстание». Главный плохиш — сыгран настолько ужасно, что он комичен.

Все размыто как акварель, абсолютно проходимо, не вызывает никаких эмоций, пока ты не осознаешь, что вокруг этого бездарного фильма крутятся огромнейшие ресурсы, которых бы хватило на несколько крутых талантливых произведений как минимум. И тут начинается фрустрация и огорчение.

P.S. Я видимо не фанат ЗВ, потому что мне безумно нравится оригинальная трилогия, 1-3 Эпизоды, и даже 2 первых фильма из новой саги, мультфильм, лего-игры, игры времен PS1|PS2 и Dark Forces, а еще у меня есть лего-фигурки Дарта Вейдера и Дарта Молла. Да, харизматичных и закосплееных до дыр эпичных ребят из некогда крутой саги.

Acting: 8
Plot 5

After 42 years of Star Wars becoming a pop culture phenomenon in movie history, the Skywalker Saga is finally coming to an end with the final instalment of the sequel trilogy.

One year after the events of The Last Jedi, Kylo Ren (Driver) obtains a Sith wayfinder to trace the mysterious galaxy-wide broadcast by Emperor Palpatine/Darth Sidious (McDiarmid), who was thought to be dead at the end of the Galatic Civil War many years ago. Tracing the source, Kylo travel to the Exegol and finds the Sith Lord on lifes support. He then proceed to reveal everything about what he has been up to and vital information on Rey (Ridley).

While Rey continues her Jedi training under General Leia Organa, the Resistance learn about the same broadcast from a spy within the First Order. Using Luke Skywalker's notebook which have information on a Sith wayfinder, she join Chewbacca, Poe Dameron, Finn, BB-8 and C-3PO on a mission to locate a Sith wayfinder on Pasaana, which is suspected to be it's last location. As for Rey, she will face Kylo Ren once again and learning more truths about her past.

Unlike The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, I have a mixed feeling on The Rise of Skywalker. The good parts are there are many nostalgia and call-backs to previous Star Wars movies. The performances from the casts are simply amazing. Nothing too weird and bland. To me, Adam Driver and Daisy Ridley are best part of the casts' performances. Both of them are great since the first instalment. John Boyega and Oscar Isaac did a great job too.

Unfortunately, those are the only good parts. There are more bad parts in this movie. Firstly, some of the characters introduced in the previous instalment are totally underused in this movie. Specifically, Domnhall Gleeson and Kelly Marie Tran whom they played General Hux and Rose Tico respectively, are not only underused but also barely in the movie and underdeveloped.

Next, the plot of the movie is sort of a rehash of Return of the Jedi. There many moments that are way too similar to that movie and make this movie lacked originality. J.J. Abrams made a mistake by doing the same method like he did with The Force Awakens, which a rehash of A New Hope. In addition, he placed too much on nostalgia and call-backs just to make the movie better and it failed. The movie also failed solve some of the previous unanswered questions that have been set up in the previous instalments.

The choice of using Darth Sidious as main antagonist is totally a waste if you asked me. Since Snoke was killed by Kylo Ren back in The Last Jedi, he should have been the main antagonist for the trilogy instead of Darth Sidious. This is definitely a wasted opportunity which could have make the movie and the sequel trilogy better.

Last but not least, the ending will be a minor controversial and some of you may or may not like it. While the movie is a mixed bag, it is still a good reason enough to go watch the movie at least to finally close the chapter of the Skywalker Saga.

The character Rey had first conquered me for his personality. In 2017 came Star Wars: The Last Jedi which divided the public and the critics. I had loved the ideas that the second movie brought me about the strength and deepening of the character Luke Skywalker. It made me vibrate in certain scenes and thrill in others. This ninth and final chapter brought the image of an unnecessary apology. They were so concerned about redeeming themselves with the public and the critics that they decided to throw away the topics presented in the second film and explain them again in a very simple and unstructured way. I didn't feel the emotion I think I should have felt. I couldn't feel like things the movie wanted me to feel. The epic feeling of an ending. It is sad to know that they decided to go back on some ideas instead of moving on and knowing how to develop them. I found this last chapter quite average and anticlimatic. Disappointing. Expand

There were a couple of nice surprises. The ending is in a dark murky planet that render the air and ground fights into a dark blue coloring. I found that choice visually horrible, especially when you put 3D into account. The acting is very good. The soundtrack is engaging. I give it a 65%. I think the ending visuals were a deception. Good film but not that great in certain areas. Second watch: The movie is good until they go to Exogol. That area of the film is just muddle in bad imagery, photography, coloring. It also lack total logic. It feels rushed and with magic solutions on the go. Horrible ending. Expand

The movie is just an incoherent mess of ideas, tropes and plots. Lacks any kind of nuance or sense, made purely for the "eye candy" effects and couple of sad/bittersweet moments. Yes Luke, Anakin, Yoda and many other characters were powerful but they also had flaws, personalities, they were able to make mistakes, lose, meanwhile Rey is an epitome of Mary Sue - infallible, incorruptible, all-powerful and completely unbelievable character. Rest of the cast is just "there" to literally hang around as replaceable support characters. Yes you could argue that everything in the movie can be explained by expanded universe, it even ties to Mandalorian, references books, games, comics but that doesn't make it any better - just more convoluted. At the same time the basics didn't change at all - it is still a simple "good vs evil" fairy tale in space which would've been fine if they weren't such cowards and took more risks with characters, made a coherent story spanning 3 movies and balanced pandering to fans with respect for the material. Disappointing. Expand

A lukewarm ending to a pretty lukeless movie

The best of the sequel trilogy finally ends off where we began, nowhere interesting... But visually stunning and C3-PO stole the show!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pretty much the saving grace of this was the effects, cinematography, the actors (John Boyega,Adam Driver and Ian Mcdiarmid) and the legendary John Williams.It's really not saying much but it is indeed better than the Last Jedi. However it all counts for naught as this films completely suffers from a very rushed story, pointless new characters and plot holes that have a negative impact on the movie itself and the whole franchise, lack of character development and charm the OT and even some of the prequels.The forced MCU comedy and a total lack of danger which what makes an adventure film thrilling and fun since all the characters are basically unstoppable,lack of consequences and numerous of conveniences for the characters.The trio, Rey Finn and Poe, we've seen them all together for the first time and all they do is argue and bicker each other all the time there's no chemistry there and I'm not convinced they're friends. What hurts the movie most of all is the cruelest joke of all; the return of Emperor Palpatine, which is an obvious last minute plan that adds more questions and really makes the previous trilogies pointless and ruins the beautifully ending of ROTJ. Was the the whole point of The Emperor's return without any indication from the previous films so he can be killed again in the lamest way possible????Why not bring back Snoke(Darth Maul survived), or have Jar Jar Binks be the final villain instead of bringing back a character long been established by the creator to be dead? Since he survived being completely obliterated in ROTJ along with Death Star II, how are you gonna convince me that's he's truly dead?The second biggest mistake was ironically what fans hated...ROS tries it's best to ignore the TLJ but it ends giving this trilogy more continuity issues than it already did. How can you watch the sequel films again when they all feel disconnected. Very lazily done by JJ Abrams. The plot twist was cheap, predictable and unoriginal. Rey is still a Mary Sue although she finally has some training(but too little too late, she's already perfect to begin with) by someone who is confirmed to not even be a Jedi master(facepalm). The cameos from the OT and fan service moments were too much and did not serve the plot as a whole. The whole plot was messy and rushed. It was then obvious that Disney wanted to create another Endgame for a great franchise which already ended decades ago.Also, how is this film PG-13? This whole trilogy was a retconed mess,that tarnishes the legacy of the OT and it damages the entire lore. It's best to pretend they never happened, but even better if they were wiped from canon.
Legends EU Forever.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This film does to The Last Jedi that The Last Jedi did to The Force Awakens. Tosses the story points from prior films like an unwanted lightsaber. To make matters worse, it unravels internal consistency. The actors do their best with what they are given. Adam Driver noticeably stands out as particularly good. However it isn't enough to keep me from feeling like the overlords were rushed and didn't pay attention. The final film should have been given time and been a labor of love, instead it feels like canned meat pulled from the microwave early and sprinkled with just enough talent to allow you to choke it down.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a lifelong hardcore Star Wars fan, I can honestly say that this film is a completely irredeemable pile of garbage. I regret the $10 and two and a half hours spent watching it. I had no idea a Star Wars film could be made that was so terrible that it would make me kind of like The Last Jedi, but this film succeeded in doing exactly that.

This movie made me want to watch The Phantom Menace, but only the parts with Jar Jar, just to remind myself how good Star Wars used to be. This movie made me want to go back and edit my old review of The Force Awakens to say "Don't bother watching this, it doesn't well." The only thing that would make this film worth a home video purchase is if you plan to incinerate the box, or throw it away for comedic effect like Ron Swanson with vegan bacon.

The plot is nonsensical, the script is poor, it earns exactly zero of its heavy emotional moments and I still, after three movies, don't care about any of these characters. I wish they all died. The talented cast is completely wasted on this script that was clearly written for and by idiots. It has the gall to reanimate the corpse of Carrie Fisher to do absolutely nothing in 20 minutes of screen time while completely failing to use Mark Hamill for more than 90 seconds.

That's all. It's bad, it's insulting, and you shouldn't watch it.

Abrams could have done something with this story that utilized the existing plot and character, but instead he added a ton of new ones, spent most of the movie trying to "correct" fan outrage about things that happened in 'Last Jedi' and 'Solo Story'.

The last film in a nine film saga is completely episodic. What were they thinking? Still, production quality is still there and most of the actors do a good job. Anyone giving it a very low or high score isn't taking into account the inherit quality of it or the god awful writing decisions.

He destroyed every Skywalker and replaced them. That's the saddest possible end to the saga and the movie makes it seem like a hopeful and joyful end. Aside from that the movie rushes important parts of the story. The fifteen first minutes are just an awful montage without any logic between the scenes, the force can now carry objects accross space and time, how convenient ! There's no inner conflict in Ben/Kylo before he comes back to the light. This movie could have been so much better and it shatters my heart. Expand

Damage containment Star Wars style. J. J. Abrams had the hard job to make something out of Rian Johnsons serious and numerous mistakes while also dealing with heavy studio interferences. The interferences alone made J. J. Abrams nearly quitDamage containment Star Wars style. J. J. Abrams had the hard job to make something out of Rian Johnsons serious and numerous mistakes while also dealing with heavy studio interferences. The interferences alone made J. J. Abrams nearly quit according to rumours and he even said publicly that all The Rise of Skywalker critics were right. If I got it right they promised him that he could do what he wanted without interference and then fight him on all fronts. To be honest this makes it hard to rate. On one hand he delivered something truly great if you count in the circumstances and on the other hand the movie is still garbage but nearly nothing is his fault. The trilogy had no real story arc from beginning to end. It became a rag rug and ended as rag rug. He had to undo much of Rian Johnsons massacre of Star Wars in the beginning and give a satisfying conclusion. The first takes time away from the latter. But lets go to the movie. The story is weak with many plot holes and the return of a character who should not return because there is nothing in the prequel movies that points in this direction. There is nothing new for the characters. Rey still got demoted to Mary Sue, Finn and Poe are uninteresting and there are a lot of stupid decisions. I noticed that this does not help me or you. I don't know what to recommend. I would not watch this movie as fan but must admid that they tried their best. There is a lot better material out there. I recommend the Thrawn trilogy in books (Both the old and new) by Timothy Zahn. It would been the better trilogy if done without interference. Think about what Joss Whedon, the Russo brothers or Patty Jenkins could do with the material. Overall I will give credits to J. J. Abrams and a salute of respect for this but canot rate this higher than 4/10.. Expand
