Today, Rotten Tomatoes has released their score for the ninth film in the Skywalker saga, and it’s not a good one. At 195 reviews, the film is currently sitting at a 59%, which is troublesome. It’s gone up a bit since the first announcement but it looks like critics aren’t too satisfied with the outcome of the film.
