I expected more from this movie.

Rating: 6/10 (5 January 2017)

I am not a star wars fan, but I can enjoy a good movie. In my opinion Rogue 1 had lots of flaws, therefore I could not enjoy it. First of all, I liked the actors and actresses, although some of them had small parts (but there are no small parts...).
In the beginning Galen Erso (Mads Mikkelsen, great actor) says he has to work on this disaster machine. If he doesn't go, the bad guys will find someone else to make this machine. Then why did the bad guys go all the way through the galaxy to find him? There is this planet where Jyn Erso can find a tape to get the blueprint of this disaster machine. To enter this planet you have to go through a circle because the rest of the planet has a protection shield. Really? If a planet has a protection shield, this shield will orbit around other planets and the planet in the shield will crash against the shield. Okay, let's say this is science fiction and somehow it is possible, if I am a bad guy and I invented a shield around a planet, why just one? Why did they not create a back-up shield within the first protection shield? So the good guys have a plan. With a very small spaceship they push a very big spaceship of the bad guys against an other spaceship of the bad guys. And when the big spaceships collide they crash into each other and explode. In reality this could never happen. The big spaceship would only bump against the other big spaceship and that's just it. I wonder why the people who created these images did not say "wait, this is just stupid". When I push a big truck against an other big truck with my small car, the trucks will not explode.
At the end Darth Vader kills a couple of good guys with his light saber. That looked very stupid. If he has the power to squeeze their throats, why did he bother to wave with his light saber? What was the purpose of Jyn Erso to be in prison at the beginning of the movie? If Jyn Erso had a rough life, how did she manage to keep the crystal she got from her father? If Galen Erso did not know whether his daughter was alive or not, he had not seen her for many years, why did he named the tape after his daughter's nickname? What if his daughter decided to become a chef, why did he put this huge responsibility in her hands and not in the hands of Saw? Chirrut Îmwe (Donnie Yen) gets killed by storm troopers. After getting killed Baze Malbus comes over to his friend to say goodbye. Where were the storm troopers at that moment? This movie did not make any sense to me.
