Excellent Fill Movie between Revenge of Sith and New Hope

Rating: 9/10 (30 December 2016)

First I guess I should say that I am not your typical Star Wars Fan. I do like the first 4, beginning with New Hope, except for the fighting Teddy Bears in the Return of the Jedi. Yes, I liked Phantom Menace, which had the coolest Jedi - Qui-Gon Jinn.
The only part that I thought that was bad was the beginning. It was like flashbacks without the person present. Extremely choppy, discombobulated without real emotional ties to anything. It is bad enough that you may never recover, which I think many suffer from, when you also throw in that they decided to forgo the sprawling update at the beginning. If it was truly a one off film the I would have been okay with that, but it was truly a prequel to New Hope, so it was a bad decision.
Other than the very beginning, I really enjoyed Rogue One. The acting, the story line, the character development, the action, the dialogue and CGI is all excellent.
