Read our privacy policy Star Wars actor John Boyega has shared his candid view on The Rise of Skywalker months after criticising The Last Jedi. The actor put his film critic hat on when responding to a Twitter fan who called the divisive JJ Abrams film “embarrassing”. “But I will be honest in saying I think that they could have done better with it, especially with Finn and Rose.” Upon its release in December, The Mandalorian actor Jake Cannavale called it “the worst Star Wars film” there has ever been. Despite its far share of criticism, the film was a box office success and had a far higher audience score on Rotten Tomatoes than previous Star Wars outings.
