The other week we went to the Dendy to see The Rise of Skywalker.
I thoroughly enjoyed it.
As a popcorn Hollywood blockbuster.
The main thing I noticed during the movie is it was very *busy*. But then you look back at The Phantom Menace where exactly two things happened (a pod race and a big battle) and someone's gonna complain no matter what.
I mean sure it has its problems (aforementioned busyness, Rey's progress at learning to be Jedi is just too damned fast, Palpatine wtf, her heritage wtf). You can see the conflict in direction between the directors of the last two films. They'd have been better off with some consistency.
Anyhoo.
Like I said, for pure entertainment it's fine, if you don't have high expectations.
