Great story told badly.

Rating: 4/10 (26 January 2017)

So its a great plot about how the Death Star plans get into the hands of the rebels. But, the plot gets lost in the crazy amount of people, places, and things that really don't add or mean much to the story. The most interesting character in the movie, Galen Erso (Mads Mikkelsen) who plays the father of the heroine, only gets about 5 minutes of story line. Yet, he is the central figure on how the plans are made available. This movie should have been a spy-thriller, not a series of shoot-em-up battles one after the other that just don't hang together. The ending is great, and gets us where we all wanted to be - heading towards Tatooine.
