How can we be so critical towards a movie saga that has appealed to generations of people all across the world? Why must we be critical of everything we go and see in theaters? A person who truly understands the meaning of the Force would understand what the saga is really about. Take out all the acting, the music, special effects, and everything else and what do you have? People standing together for what they believe in and coming together even with the odds being completely against them. The saga is based on family/hope/love/redemption/courage/bravery/ self respect /faith/honor/duty/loyalty. These are just key words when I watch this saga which are all the things George Lucas wants the viewers to see and understand. See this saga has deeper meaning than just being a entertaining movie. This was very refreshing to watch and see that no matter how far you fall to the evil of the world there is always light to guide you home. I will be honest though The Last Jedi was short of everything that Star Wars stands for. I did a lot of research on it and I congratulate J.J. for how he concluded the saga after the disaster the other guy left for him to clean up. J.J. understood the meaning of the saga which is why his movies felt so much like the the original three. He wanted to hammer the point home that a story is more than just something read,see, or hear. It’s about making you feel apart of something. Makes you feel like you have a family when you are alone. Which is something we need in today’s society. So before you y’all go all crazy and saying how much you dislike or hate the movie. Then go back and watch all of them with and open mind. You might be surprised at what you see and learn. Forget all the fandom stuff just watch them for yourself. Even on the spiritual level there is so much to unpack. Even if you are bias on the spiritual side take another look it appeals to all religions in some way. Lucas created something to bring people together not apart which is what makes this saga so relatable to life now. We all see things differently which is the point of the this amazing saga. Look I know this must not be the most grammatically sound review but I am doing my best being I suffered a major head trauma in service to my country. To all those fans new, young, old remember the moments that made you than fan you are now. Whether you just love sci-fi, adventure, weird creatures, space travel, or whatever caught your appeal just remember the force is real in all of us. It’s called life so go out and live it. Also know there is always family waiting no matter what blood flows through your veins. Just go see the Rise of Skywalker you may be left with more questions than answers but that’s the point of life. Open your mind to world of possibilities and see the unseen. You might be surprised at what you will find. The journey may be long but there always will be a family there to help you along. May The Force Be With All Of You.
