Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker suffers from a frustrating lack of imagination, but concludes this beloved saga with fan-focused devotion.

For Star Wars fans unhappy with the previous sequel, Rise of Skywalker concludes this phase of the franchise on a relative high note.

'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker' garners mixed reactions, with praise for its nostalgic elements, special effects, and emotional moments. However, it faces criticism for incoherent storytelling, inconsistent character development, and over-reliance on fan service. Some argue it doesn't match the original trilogy's legacy, while others see it as a flawed yet fitting conclusion to the Skywalker saga. The film's handling of established lore and its attempts to reconcile the sequel trilogy are contentious points.
