Man, such a huge pet peeve of mine was finally answered! The movie was epic, definitely the movie of 2016. And I thought the perfect amount of Vader.

Probably the best Star Wars I've seen. True to the original fans.

If I had to rate it in the saga it's at least 4th, possibly better than Return of the Jedi

A good addition to the story. Everything about the film is well done, but not exceptional. Worth seeing, but by no means a cant miss

If they would have edited the first 1/2 better it would have been epic. Real slow start but a great movie over all. Go Vader!

It's Star Wars but then it's not Star Wars. I liked it but i didn't like it. I liked the characters but then I didn't. A prequel to the first Star Wars ever? Don't think it was really necessary..

the first 15 minutes or so is a little choppy and jumpy. too much transition. the REST of the movie is absolutely amazing! a bit of humor and a splash of sad, minor glimpses of some fan service. overall quite action packed and really good!

It was slow at the beginning but once it finally picked up, it was pretty good throughout. Quite possibly the only Star Wars film with the best Vader fight scene. Full on Vader uniform fight scene.

I'm not a fan of all the movies, but this one was fun and entertaining. I felt that the first one that came out earlier this year was better. But this one helps understand the story a little better. However, I thought it was going to end were the last one started; I'm still…

Excellent movie. Has the feel of star wars but did their own thing at the same time. Much better than the force awakens IMO. Would watch again in theaters.

It starts off slow and somewhat clunky, but by the time the mind-blowing third act arrives, it’s all a fan can do not to stand up and cheer.

It has undeniable weaknesses: an underwritten protagonist, a generic villain, a shortage of interesting personalities. (No knock against the large cast, which is mostly very good, but underused.) But in many other respects, it is a better film than last year’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens: leaner, darker, with a distinct visual style and an actual ending that feels like a denial of blockbuster expectations simply because it shows basic narrative integrity.

The director of Rogue One, Gareth Edwards, has stepped into a mythopoetic stew so half-baked and overcooked, a morass of pre-instantly overanalyzed implications of such shuddering impact to the series’ fundamentalists, that he lumbers through, seemingly stunned or constrained or cautious to the vanishing point of passivity, and lets neither the characters nor the formidable cast of actors nor even the special effects, of which he has previously proved himself to be a master, come anywhere close to life.
