Not bad

Rating: 6/10 (22 December 2017)

This is a more serious Star Wars which went a bit silly starting in 1983 with Return of the Jedi and escalating with The Phantom Menace (1999), but Rogue One does away with silliness and gets down to business. The only thing I didn't like was Darth Vader's dark tower/castle (I'm nitpicking); in fact there's lots of nitpicky things I don't like about this film (maybe I'm just sick of Star Wars). Rogue One's action packed; you get your money's worth; especially the battle at the end, and the epilogue with Darth Vader kicking rebel arse. In comparison to some of the latter Star Wars entries Rogue One's not bad. Like another review said, Rogue One's a war film.
