Without getting into spoilers, the film has a fairly intense scene in what you could call its prologue. This scene isn’t long per se, but it is indicative of the overall feeling of the movie. The warning was issued two weeks ago, and parents of children with epilepsy should not shrug it off. Now, sensory-free screenings are available for the movie, but as parents know, autism is not epilepsy. So again, if you’re going to see the new Star Wars movie, just make sure you know what your kid is comfortable with. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is out everywhere on Friday, December 20, 2019.
