I have no doubt Edwards had to steer an entire army of Executives in order to deliver the film he wanted. To juggle so many major and minor characters in a single narrative in a tight running time, for any director is no mean feat and Edwards manages it extremely well. One or two of the subplot characters are a little underwritten (perhaps deleted scenes and a longer cut will reveal them to be less so) but that really is nit picking, I had no issue with this at all. The appearances of Vader and Tarkin (Incredible) are entirely warranted and in proportion with the rest of the film. Chiefly in the acting credits, plaudits must go to Felicity Jones who plays Jyn with real conviction while Diego Luna avoids a Han Solo portrayal of Cassian, her would be ally and sometimes adversary. I have no doubt the Droid (Voiced with skill by Alan Tudky) will become a favourite of many and new aliens and ship designs are not thin on the ground. The film contains so many pure Star Wars moments. Here the Rebellion is shown as a far more tangible real faction, not everyone agrees with each other, things get messy and sometimes the wrong people are killed - the film even begs to ask the question, how better really are they than the Empire? - we know of course, but its great to see such shades rather than just plain good and bad guys. Strong drama is the key ingredient of the day. Many British actors really make their mark in smaller roles including Duncan Pow & Ben Daniels as Rebel Foot Solider and General Pilot respectively while the likes of Sharon Duncan-Brewster & Jonathon Aris as Rebel Senators argue the merits of the attack in a tense conference debate - gone are the boring council meetings of the prequels. The cast feels truly international, as any universe should. #Everwing hack reddit cache movieThe new villain of the piece is brilliantly played by Ben Mendelson (Hard to believe this is the kid from The Big Steal!) Donnie Yen's character was beautifully written, I could have watched another movie just about him alone. The supporting cast were especially good here, everyone from Riz Ahmed to Forest Whitaker giving it their all. I am not a die hard Star Wars fan in any sense and was fully prepared to be very critical of this film, but find it hard to find fault in it anywhere. I was highly critical of the prequel movies, which really are a masterclass in how not to make a film, here the total opposite is true. This is a man who clearly understands his craft of what makes for a great film. I have not seen them so well combined since Lord of the Rings. It is the perfect mix of live action & CG effects. Here the technology enhances the story and the tension and at no time tries to substitute for either. Seventh - real sets, please give me a London Underground station redressed over bland CGI sterile sets any day of the week. First a good script with the right mix of drama, action, pathos and humour and above all a story that actually makes sense, secondly good well written, rounded, characters that are interesting, diverse and unique, third great visuals - there's so many memorable shots in this film and so many of them are the shots you always wanted to see, fourth well directed action that looks and feels real, that is tense and that you can follow, fifth - tension, this film has it in spades, Sixth nods and references to the original trilogy - they come in abundance, some are comedic, some pure nostalgia while others are entirely appropriate and work so well within the story. Gareth Edwards is a director who understands all the combined elements that make a Star Wars Film great. So does it hold up? Well, yes, not only does it hold up I would put this film on par with Empire and also Episode IV and this coming from someone who saw the first film on the silver screen in 1977. #Everwing hack reddit cache archiveThis information is contained in an archive and it falls to the daughter of the designer, Jyn Erso, to not only restore her fathers name but get the designs to the rebels who are just itching to get on with events in Episode Four (New Hope) and blow the thing up. The plot which I will only briefly describe involves a group of rebels attempting to secure the plans to the Death Star, the designer of which, having a morale conscience, built the deliberate flaw (The exhaust port which Stewie Darth Vader asked about in Family Guy) so that it could be easily destroyed as long as the information fell into the right hands. I guess everyone has different expectations of Star Wars. Rogue one is as engrossing as it is seamless and while its not perfect it had everything required to make a great movie. With all the rumours flying about that Disney had interfered with the creative process on this one, just as when Alderaan blew up - I feared the worse. #Everwing hack reddit cache fullWatch/download the full movie here - CLICK HERE ENJOY!
