Why "Rise of Skywalker" is objectively a bad movie:

2. Just saw it yesterday. My main concern was the lack of story.

If you can't create a story for the principle characters don't make the movie. You nailed it with the bean counters. It's time for a new Christmas release so ...oh let's go with the first cast regardless of their are deceased in the story or in real life.

We went out to dinner afterwards and my family helped me realize that this was, has to be, the end of the line. The end of the third trilogy. I guess wrapping the whole thing up with EVERY element included is understandable..... I guess.

I am going with this - it was good versus evil and hope won.
