This is a great solid star wars movie

Rating: 8/10 (18 December 2017)

Some might not like this movie because it isn't as spectacular or as epic as some of the other star wars movies, but that's part of what I liked about it. This was a simple adventure movie set in the star wars universe that does a fantastic job portraying the world as it was prior to a new hope, it has some fun characters and the writing doesn't do anything to try to say "we're new star wars!" which is great, since this is set in the era of the old trilogy and rather than try to break free of it, it compliments them.
The ending felt a little rushed and it could have gone a bit darker in certain parts, fleshed out 1 or 2 characters but besides that it was a great addition to the star wars series.
