The force is strong with this one

Rating: 9/10 (15 December 2016)

Rouge One is a perfect mixture of fast-paced action with the grit and feel from the original movies. CGI is used but well made. Although it's guns blazing from the start until the end it never gets too much. Rouge One makes up for the disappointment most die-hard Star Wars fans were left with after The Force Awakens. Rouge One is a war movie without clichés and portrays the true nature of war. The nostalgia is strong with this one. Rouge One is filled with references and "easter eggs" and will most likely be a big block buster, if not bigger than The Force Awakens. During the end credits the audience gave a standing ovation and that pretty much speaks for itself. Rouge One is a vast and long-awaited contribution to the Star Wars universe but works well even for those who are not acquainted with the franchise.
