Adam Driver was excellent in all three films.

The ST had... issues, but he absolutely wasn't one of them.

I don't particularly remember it being good, but it's fairly late in the movie so my heart, soul and eyes were numb at that point.

I'd say the male cast absolutely nailed it. Driver, Isaac, Boyega all knocked it out of the park with everything they were given(basically shit past TFA, which was fun but not particularly great). Ridley, especially considering the dogshit role she had, did try her best too. But a bad role and bad directing will not a good character make. It's a wonder we got as many good performances as we did, tbh. At least Fisher got some good scenes before her passing, we can be thankful of that.

The Last Jedi was the best Star Wars film since Empire. Always annoys me how Disney were so terrified of a vocal minority that Rise of Skywalker undoes everything in the previous film leaving it an unwatchable mess. I honestly don't know anyone that likes it. I honestly think it's the worst SW film - yes, worse than Attack of the Clones.

Rumors say that Adam Driver had to be sent to the hospital on several occasions for the sheer amount of effort it took to carry the sequel trilogy on his back.

Same reason why people were so hyped for The Phantom Menace, people were like "a new mainline Star Wars movie to kick off a new trilogy in X number of years? That sounds great!"

But unlike The Phantom Menace, TFA was actually good.

The shrug when he gets the lightsaber was such a Han move

Should've made him the main character of the ST and it be about his journey back to the light. Like the prequels in reverse.

Sure, ANH 2.0 was decent. Shame about what came after.

Rian and J.J did John Boyega so filthy with these movies man, it's depressing.

While not as bad as the Phantom Menace, which I maintain is the worst one tied alongside Rise of Skywalker, The Force Awakens is retroactively worse than it was when it came out back in 2015 thanks to all the stupid mystery boxes that had nothing in them.

Kylo was a great character for 1.5 movies and Drivers' acting was always on point.

Trilogy totally wasted him and others.

I love the little bits of characterization like that he throws in only during this part of the trilogy.

Like the last half hour or so is the only time you can 100% see the Han in him, with that and the shooting the guy over his shoulder.

The Rise of Skywalker is an enigma to me. I've never seen a sequel so aggressive about tearing down the previous movie that it's willing to shoot itself in the foot

We've had sequels that pretend previous installments just didn't exist, but not a movie so dedicated and hellbent on utterly destroying the previous one. It's probably one of the most kneejerky movies of all time

He was the only redeeming element of the film..... and then they murder his character at the end.

Like, him going on a Vader arc but actually surviving would be an interesting twist on that story. Instead, they just literally did Vader again.

Part of me agrees, but he was pretty irredeemable at that point. Its tough to come back from killing Han and indirectly killing Luke.
