Really a new hope after The Force Awakens

Rating: 9/10 (29 December 2016)

So Disney hasn't killed Star Wars after all... Rogue One shows that there are still good script writers, there can be still a good movie made with honoring the old trilogy and still adding a new piece to the Star Wars universe. Attention to small details, clever references to the previous movies and overall an enjoyable movie. I only wish the same guys would make Star Wars VIII. I really hope :) I generally didn't like the main characters, haven't been overly satisfied with the acting, but everyone had a few good moments and overall the story worked. We can see that the movie has been through a "sanity check". No pointless flying around, everyone has clear motivation and still we can sense that this is a true Star Wars movie, much more than I-II or VII. I was very suspicious, read several reviews before I went to buy the movie ticket, but it was worth it. Go and watch! :)
