This one kind of grew on me. I'm not a fan of any of the new Star Wars films, but this one seems the best of the bunch. It is the only one that I can stomach. Beautiful 4K transfer.

One of the two only Disney Star Wars movies worth getting the second being SOLO.

It explains the error how the Star wars trilogy began from the beginning.

I watched the 4K Ultra HD and enjoyed it during the COVID-19 lock down. Highly recommend!

Very good looking and sounding in 4k. This is my favorite Disney Star Wars movie.

Finally know who got the Death Star plans and why Vader was so mad in ANew Hope.

The best star wars movie fight me except for The Last Jedi FIGHT ME

This movie is a worthy addition to the Star Wars franchise, and it looks and sounds great!

The 4k remaster is worth the buy. The best star wars movie since the originals.

Usually before I go see a Star Wars film. I prepare by watching the prior films due to the new film's connection. However, this film is a standalone in the franchise, so I went into this film blind. However I did play Battlefront, not in preparation but because it's a fun game. After seeing the film, it was the best way to prep. Rogue One is actually a War film. I'd pretty much say it's the more Warsy of Star Wars film than any other feature. The focus is more on those enlisted in the rebellion rather than the Jedi. The film takes place before the events of the New Hope and details how the plans for the Death Star was stolen. Garett Edwards is a good director, I liked his prior films. I also like the change in pace of this film. I appreciate the slow build of the first half. In the beginning the film 'spacetrot' to different planets. I felt that we've visited more planets than any other movie. I like how vastly different each planet looked. The characters I liked were Donnie Yen, who always plays a blind warrior. In this film he's a true believer of the force. However, the film leaves a mystery as to whether he possessed the power of the force. I did appreciate that aspect of his character. The Cgi is perfection, I remember watching an interview where someone once said "the technology will one day be perfected to the point where you can bring actors back from the dead". Wow it is evident in this film, Peter Cushing is back in this film (I don't feel this is a spoiler since he's a major character in the plot line of the Death Star). The Cgi is perfected to the point, where there is no uncanny valley. People will watch this and either wonder who is the actor they got or will be dumbfounded in thinking that Peter Cushing is still alive. The action scenes were great, it definitely captures how brutal this mission was in order to get the plans. The Scarif battle definitely shows how outnumbered the rebellion was against the Imperials. My problem with this film would be the main characters. I didn't find myself emotionally attached to Jen Erso, trying to find her father. I didn't care for Diego Luna's character. They aren't as exciting as the characters in the previous films. Now before you say that's because these characters are new in comparison to other characters who've been in Star Wars existence for 40+ years. I like the characters like Poe Damron, Finn and Rey. I instantly like those characters and could identify their traits from watching the Force Awakens at the theater. However the two leads are somewhat bland and by the numbers. The rebel with a past, the devoted rebel captain who will stop at anything to complete the mission. I understand this film went in a more serious route in story. However they could at least given some appeal to the two leads. Alan Tudyk work for the droid K-2 is good, his character is hilarious as the dry-witted droid. Ben Middleson does a great job at portraying the pompous villain Krennic. However I wasn't as invested in Jen Erso and Captain Andor. That's a problem when you have a story that every Star Wars fan will know how it's going to end. We all know they succeed in stealing the plans. However it depends on how fun the journey is and if youre going to introduce new characters at least make them enjoyable. This film definitely feels like a Star Wars film, I heard a lot of people say that it doesn't have that feeling. However, the music, atmosphere and call-backs will remind you. My only worry is the over saturation of this franchise. Star Wars is known for taking 2 years or more before introducing a new film. Which explains why even the prequels made money despite being bad movies. The franchise knew how to wait and build up the excitement and anticipation for a new film. Star Wars is an event film, which is evident how this film had me confused in how to prepare for it. I'm sure I'm not the only that has a prep for these films, however since it's a standalone and we just had a Star Wars film come out last year. It left me confused which is why I came into this movie with an open mind. Which is unusual for a Star Wars film because, all fans have build up anticipation and preconceived notions after a couple years of waiting. I just hope the day will never come when the most beloved franchise will end with fans going through Star Wars fatigue.

The movie was fun and entertaining but the final scene steals the show.

Delivering on the promise The Force Awakens made when the Mouse House took the reins of this saga, ROGUE ONE really puts the WAR in Star Wars with a film set firmly in the dirtier, more rough-and-tumble side, not only further flavoring the original adventure as we already know it, but offering up some of the most impressive imagery in this series to date thanks to Gareth Edward's distinct visual stylings. (Also, Alan Tudyk just needs to be in bloody everything. Starting now. Aaaaaand go.)

To me this is the best Star Wars movie out there. You know the other story now.

Best Buy's Rogue One SteelBook exclusive was an instant buy for me. I dig the overall design of the artwork, inside and out. Sound & picture quality are stellar for both 2D/3D versions. I was surprised, though, that the 3D version was not as eye-popping as I expected (though the X-Wings flying through the rain sequence was very notable). The separate disc of bonus features is always a welcome, though the absence of a trailer gallery is a bummer. Overall, another highly recommended release.

After being incredibly skeptical about a stand alone Star Wars movie, I thought, it's still Star Wars so I'll give it a try. And I'm so glad that I did! It nicely bridges movies 3 and 4 while still be it's own movie. I am one of the few of my friends who didn't like it better than the Force Awakens but it was more about musical taste. When I'm watching Star Wars, I expect certain music to play during certain scenes but that's just the band geek in me. But regardless, get it! It's worth it!

Liked this movie, and Solo, so much more than VII, VIII, and VIII. Looks really nice in 4K

Between sound and picture, it's excellent. One of the best told Star Wars story there is.

Love this movie and definitely amazing in 4k, one of my favorite movies

One of my most favorite Star Wars movies and it looks good on screen in 4K !!!

The first in a series of standalone anthology movies to no include the Skywalker theme is an out of the park home run for Disney, Lucasfilm, and JJ Abrams. Movie plays more similar in tone and theme like a war movie. Nice departure from the Episodic Series that we will be seeing every odd year (this year being Episode VIII - The Last Jedi). Looking forward to additional movies that take place outside of the episodic timeline (next being Han Solo film in 2018). Must have and a must watch!
