Saw it with my younger son over the holidays and we both liked it as well (he has been a Star Wars fan since his early teens). He is also a big fan now of The Mandalorian on Disney channel which is kind of a spin off of Star Wars. Watched a few episodes and it looks pretty good too (Jon Favreau is the creator).I've seen The Rise of Skywalker twice now and enjoyed it. It had some of the great elements of the first film and for me, ticked most of the boxes. I've been very surprised at the negative reviews?
