Generic blockbuster

Rating: 7/10 (14 December 2016)

Rogue one didn't give me any emotions that i would get in really good movies. It had way too much forced humor possibly to compansate for the darkness and sadness it had. Also i felt the music was too underwhelming for my liking – again the music didn't give much emotions with the movie and seemed overall just too mild at least for my taste.
The story itself was made to fit it's purpose as a filler story between E3 and E4. Thats what it did and i think it did that job fairly well. It also gave some possible plothints for the coming star wars Episode 8 – something to talk about for the next year while waiting.
Rogue One delivers what you expect from a big blockbuster these days. Blockbusters always come with downsides. When the goal is to please the maximum amount of people everything ends up being milder. Overall good movie, not bad but not really good either. Safe to say it servers it's purpose at the Star Wars movie family but fails to deliver anything special.
