Review of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) by Tarekali — 22 Jan 2020

I just rewatched Rogue One and this time round the nuances of the acting are even more poignant. The massive sacrifices by Galen Erso and his daughter Jyn, and the selflessness of every single protagonist in the mission, make the deeds of the vaunted Skywalker clan seem small in comparison.

This movie doesn't miss a beat, and I appreciate it even more amidst the stale vomit of the new abomination Abrams, Kennedy and Riaan subvert expectations Johnson trilogy. Gareth Edwards should have helmed the new trilogy.
