Star Wars Episode 9: The Rise of Skywalker- The ending to the best saga of all time
Star Wars Episode 9: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) was directed by J.J Abrams and stars Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, and Oscar Issac as our three returning heroes. Supreme Leader Kylo Ren (played by Adam Driver) is making his final push to destroy the resistance once and for all, but he can't do it by himself. He calls upon the dead to help him build the fleet that will cripple the galaxy forever. This review will not include spoilers. I honestly don't understand why the movie is getting tons of hate. I honestly thought this was the most exciting Star Wars movie since Empire Strikes Back. The cast was perfect as always, besides the character of Rose of course. The action was awesome and everything felt well choreographed. There wasn't a moment to take your eyes off of the screen cause there is constantly something for these characters to do. I do feel like the movie was stuffing a little bit to fit everything into two hours, but that is only a minor complaint. The relationship between Kylo and Rey grow even more throughout and we finally find out who her family is. There were also a couple moments in the film where fake outs occur and it was genuinely pulling at my heart strings. There are also a lot of new force powers that are shown off in the film which were pretty cool to see. I think that this was the best movie of the sequel trilogy and the best Star Wars film since Empire Strikes Back. It was a fitting end to the best saga of all time. I highly recommend you see this film immediately.
