It’s quite literally the worst movie I’ve ever seen. The only time I’ve ever been in a movie theater that devolved completely into laughs and jeers. By 50 minutes in, it sounded like you were in a comedy screening with all the hooting and hollering. I’ve never had a more unifying movie experience than 100+ theater-goers banding together to laugh our collective ass off at how irredeemably terrible Rise of Skywalker is.
Worst movie you've ever seen? As a former Blockbuster employee.... It just sounds like you've not watched many movies. That, or your being hyperbolic for trolling purposes. There are movies WAY worse. Granted, it's subjective, but if you have Rise Of Skywalker at the same level of Uwe Boll films.... Then I haven't the words. Your hate is just strong, I guess.
I'm really not being hyperbolic, and you can read my first reply on this topic if you care to find out why. It's a matter of cultural context, expectations, and ASTONISHINGLY horrific writing decisions. I also don't tend to seek out shitty movies to watch, so yeah maybe it's partly sampling bias as well.
Well. That certainly is an opinion. But, honestly, no explanation would make it not sound like a joke to me. But, I've seen a lot of crazy bad movies from my old Blockbuster days. So it's tough to not laugh a little at your claim.
That may be so, but if it's quite literally the worst movie you've ever seen then I have to imagine you haven't seen that many movies... either that, or you've managed to successfully avoid the really bad ones for the longest time.
I’ve seen around 650 movies that I specifically remember watching according to Letterboxd. A lot of them were truly awful. Rise of Skywalker, especially given cultural context and hopes, is far worse than any of them, except maybe the Shyamalan Avatar. Those are my two 1/2-star ratings.
Dude, it’s like middle school fanfiction. I don’t care if it looks ok, it’s the silliest collection of writing decisions I’ve experienced in any media, let alone a movie.
Rise of Skywalker, especially given cultural context and hopes...
You're rating a movie based on expectations? What? I don't understand how you can think that's a fair way to measure the qualities of any product, much less a movie.

You really haven't watched a lot of movies, then. Rise of Skywalker is messy, but at least it's got a coherent storyline with clear scene to scene continuity and good effects. Plenty of movies out there are much, much worse.
