A ‘Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker’ review: Warning this article contains spoilers
The Rise of Skywalker
After all, these movies really aren’t designed for social commentary - they’re supposed to mirror ancient myths and fairy tales. What are the Jedi, if not knights of the realm, bound by blood? By telling the audience that Rey was a “nobody,” Johnson left her at a dead end, severing her personal connection to this story, which has always been the legend of the Skywalker family.
But Palpatine’s scenes are so dreadfully, irredeemably campy that they’re oddly enjoyable - he’s just such an over-the-top villain, and I unironically loved his fabulously gothic throne room, along with his audience of faceless ghouls. He even fleshes out somelore, explaining something that always bothered me - why do the Sith take on apprentices, if they know that they are doomed to be usurped?
Much of this movie feels like filler, densely-packed plot twists that are either reversed in the very next scene, or completely ignored, but Rey and Kylo’s scenes are usually quite compelling., strangely enough. There was that same sense of urgency, the narrative sprinting through the final plot points without giving the audience, or the characters, the chance to absorb them; Kylo’s death, for example, felt just as rushed as Daenerys’.
I liked that the planet-destroying power of the Death Star is now incredibly common - it mirrors the terrifying trajectory of the atomic bomb .
