STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER

Director: J.J. Abrams
Starring: Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, John Boyega, Lupita Nyong’o, Billy Dee Williams, Ian McDiarmid, Kelly Marie Tran, Carrie Fisher

How do you end a saga after three trilogies? Director J.J. Abrams does just that with a satisfying conclusion in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

Adam Driver is out for blood as Kylo Ren. His rage is stronger than ever before. He’s massively greedy and with the return of Emperor Palpatine, he knows he can potentially rule the galaxy. Rey (Ridley) is continuing on in her Jedi training. The force is massively strong within her, and while she may not be ready, she sets out to finish Luke’s mission. Along for the ride are trusty companions Poe, Finn, Chewie, and their fellow droids. Returning again are cast members John Boyega, Kelly Marie Tran, Lupita Nyong’o, Anthony Baker, and Billy Dee Williams. New to the cast are Keri Russell, Naomi Ackie, and Richard E. Grant.

Here’s my review
