Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
While it offers some fun spectacle, solid performances, and impressive visuals, Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker is a disappointing finale.
Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018)
Even with some decent performances, fun action sequences, and lore expansion, Solo: A Star Wars Story feels pointless and fairly predictable.
Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi (2017)
Though it suffers from some pacing issues and a few questionable moments, Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi is a very bold and impressive film.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016)
While not the most compelling film in the series, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is still one of the more unique and original entries.
Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens (2015)
While it does take elements from previous entries, Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens is a welcome return to what made the series great.
Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith (2005)
Though it still has its problems, Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith is easily the strongest film in the prequel trilogy.
Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones (2002)
While an improvement over the previous film, Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones still suffers from poor writing, subpar acting, and CGI overload.
Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace (1999)
Despite some decent set pieces, Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace ultimately fails due to its dull story, weak acting, and poor writing.
Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi (1983)
While not the strongest of the original films, Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi still works as a fitting conclusion to a classic trilogy.
Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
Building off of the first film, while also expanding the characters and world further, Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back is sci-fi perfection.
