A king will come from across the sea.
After emigrating to Greece from Nigeria, Vera and Charles Antetokounmpo struggled to survive and provide for their five children, while living under the daily threat of deportation. Desperate to obtain Greek citizenship but undermined by a system that blocked them at every turn, the family's vision, determination and faith lifted them out of obscurity to launch the careers of three NBA champions.
"The Rise of Skywalker pays dividends in fan service, and it pushes every nostalgic button on its dashboard. It's very funny, and by twists and turns incredibly sad, too, with surprises so big that Han Solo's ego looks small by comparison."
— Rebecca Harrison
"It's not unlike a rollercoaster ride in that it has just enough thrills to satisfy fans, but you can also see exactly where the ride begins and ends before you strap in."
— Brian Tallerico
