A let down

Rating: 7/10 (17 December 2016)

To be honest I was kind of disappointed. I found the first 2/3 of the movie kind of slow, I did like the final act however. Was really let down by how they killed of Saw Gerrera so early, especially after they made it a point of how he was a hardened extremist rebel to only just give up after just meeting Jyn, who I found uninteresting by the way. Some of Rogue One's deaths were underwhelming to me, specifically Donnie Yen's character, who I was hoping to go out with a bang. I did enjoy the final scene with Darth Vader, notably as he emerged from the shadow in the corridor. I really wanted to like this movie more. A solid 7.5/10 from something that had a big buildup but was a let down for me, not as good as The Force Awakens.
