I'd always liked this movie since it came out in 2016. It had some great action and visuals with good enough story and characters. But for some reason, when I rewatched it tonight (August 2018), it really struck me. I don't even know why, I just went from thinking that it was good to loving it. The movie itself doesn't do a great job setting up the characters on its own, but I've read some books surrounding this movie since. A book called Rebel Rising which was all about Jyn, and a book called Catalyst which was all about Galen, both of which were pretty good. Especially Rebel Rising. So this time with the background knowledge, all the deaths had an emotional punch to them. And that final scene with Darth Vader is still as spectacular as ever. I'll give this movie an 87%
Worst Star Wars movie ever. the is not made for that kind of movie. his Godzilla was meh too.
Forget the naysayers. This movie, based on one paragraph in a new hope's crawl, is absolutely great. Yes, I know they had a female hero. So what? This shows the answer to the Rebel Spaceships, striking from a hidden base. How did those plans get nabbed? Who did they go to? The final battle over Scarif, as well as showing just how really relentless and evil the Empire is, as well as Vaders appearance at the end made this an instant classic. Just an excellent movie.
Typical 'fear men, not see this' story: poor repressed girl is abused by her father and his IDEALISM, REJECTS his idealism, LASHES OUT and CRY FOR ATTENTION by stealing the death star plans... Didn't Leia steal those plans? Let's dig Carrie Fischer up and check in with her... but I'm sure she's happy; not only have we effectively killed Han Solo the character, but we killed Han Solo's legacy. Interesting parallel with the whole consolidation of power to a single woman in this universe and how we glorify that just because she's female, while scorning men whose power is equal or greater--out of fearing the things she can't understand. #ItIsCancer
