Rogue One Rocks!!

Rating: 8/10 (21 December 2016)

Rogue One wins at Star Wars! It kicks the arse out of the more modern episodes of the franchise.
I don't do many reviews, but after seeing this movie and having read some of the early reviews on the site that gave the movie the thumbs down, I had to leave one.
I find some people's analysis of movies a bit conceited, a bit like art critics and wine tasters. The types of people that you want to kick in the balls.
In terms of this movie, any poor reviews are totally unfounded. It's a great movie. The scenery is stunning, the action scenes and special effects are amazing and the story ties in really well to the original Star Wars.
It has a totally different feel to it than any of the more modern episodes, but this just brings it into the modern era and strangely enough there are times when the fight scenes look like a war film set in the middle east. There is a feel of familiarity and realism to the settings and it works.
I'm not saying it's a perfect movie. If you feel inclined there are few dodgy bits that could be pointed out, but they by no means ruin what is a very good sci-fi movie.
If you like Star Wars, Sci-fi or just a good action movie, then go see Rogue One, you won't be disappointed.
