I saw Rise Of Skywalker today

I really enjoyed it.

I have no idea why people have trashed this movie. It’s really a great movie.

I also don't understand the hatred for Last Jedi.

It wasn't the worst, but it was towards the bottom. I enjoyed it, but there were so many problems... The "The Dead Speak!" opening crawl; the disjointed first hour; the creepy, CGI Leia; the "bring back the villain from the first 6 movies; the complete removal of Rose from the story, Poe's story being rewritten...

That said, I thought it was Adam Driver's best performance in the series, I liked Richard Grant as the new Imperial Admiral, and I liked the new characters introduced.

But it was nowhere near as good as the Last Jedi.
