Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

Watching this after finally finishing Andor really proved to me that this is by far the best, if not only, good Disney-era Star Wars movie that we have gotten so far. My only real complaint is that those CGI portrayals of dead actors do not look good. I understand why, and the purpose in the movie was done well enough; it is just hideous to look at. Outside of that, phenomenal job on everything else. The cast works extraordinarily well together, and the acting is top-notch. Sets are stunning, and the finale is one of the best I've seen.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

third act saved this movie from mediocrity. again mentioning vader deserves a spoiler warning with his likeness, that being said, that man absolutely went off in his last scene murdering rebels, fun to watch. only a few more movies to go in this journey.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

That first scene and the entire last act made this worthwhile

Thanks for pausing a few moments longer on those spacescapes and landscapes so I can actually look at 'em.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

Finished up Andor proper so returning a final time for the narrative closure. (And tonal whiplash!) Even the spectacle is starting to dim, but at least it blew open the door for the years-long-acid-in-the-belly-of-Mon-Mothma reckoning that was to come.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

Point-at-the-reference-on-the-screen kinda' movie and goddamnit why am I still tearing up by the end of it. I can say I've left Star Wars behind... but have I truly forsaken the rebellion and its sacrifices? Signs point to not quite. And this in spite of what they did to Peter Cushing, surely among the Great Sins of the franchise. You know, concurrently sliding through a RE-WATCH of Andor (as total non-fans do, ofc) has called attention to some distant itch, and I am wondering if the irritant in question relates to some of the old SW books I last looked through 25 years ago. That more intimate, powerful, and powerfully *weird* material, from a time where Disney's world-gobbling wasn't even a remote factor. In any event, caught up in the spectacle of Rogue One's back half if nothing else. Flipping my two nickles now for Donnie Yen playing blind badasses.

Nunca imaginé que me iba a gustar tanto algo de star wars en la que no salieran chorrocientas espaditas de colores por segundo

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

An excellent 1st entry in the Star Wars anthology series. This movie had a lot of heart, and a lot of fun characters. While it did drag for the first half, I must say the 2nd half blew me away. I may have witnessed the best space battle put to film, ever.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

A fantastic entry into the franchise, closing a huge plot hole for the original trilogy. One of the most visually dynamic films, and diverse cast, making it one of the stronger films in the Star Wars series.
