Review of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) by Resuaicata — 16 Dec 2016

Movie is LOONG and boring, you will literally be sitting in the theater for an hour and a half before the movie starts picking up and getting decent. I will say this about the actual movie, I'm not going to include spoilers. The characters aren't going to grow on you, this is not an "Epic tale", you probably won't remember the character's names a month from now after seeing this movie. This is not Starwars,this is not the franchise we grew up on. And thats why I'm giving this movie a bad review, I'm not going to give it a "Free pass" just because it's starwars. Also with that being said, most of the people that I know personally that like the movie are pure George Lucas haters, they hate everything George Lucas did, and love everything he didn't do. They couldn't name one thing they really loved about the movie other than the action towards the end/the ending. I can't name a single thing I personally liked other than the action, so Hence the 3/10 score. FAIL.

As a side note I will say this is how I personally rank the SWs movies. 1-8 1 being the best.

1.) A New Hope 2.) The Empire Strikes back.

3.) Return of the Jedi.

4.)Revenge of the Sith.

5.)The Force Awakens.

6.)The Phantom Menace.

7.)Star Wars Rogue One.

8.)The Clone Wars.

I am an avid Starwars fan, and to be honest Rogue on had less going for it than Clone Wars. The characters were that bad and they just couldn't convince me enough through poor acting (With a few major exceptions), and a poor/poorly written plot to care about them. I mean this is my personal opinion, I'm not telling you to not watch the movie, you should just lower your expectations so you won't be disappointed, or you might even like it more than you expected you would, the action scenes are great, but lets be real here if thats all it takes to make a good movie Taken 1/2 would be 8-9/10s.
