Notes:
*I have had this at my theater since it came out, but we weren't allowed to watch it until the 2nd of January via Disney's rules. I ended up very busy until I finally get to check it out 8 days after the freedom period.
*Gareth Edwards also helmed as the director of Monsters and Godzilla which were both excellent.
*Chris Weitz has an interesting writing background with the live action Cinderella, About a Boy, The Golden Compass, and Antz under his belt.
*Tony Gilroy has been known for writing Armageddon and being a part of the first four Bourne movies.
*This is the first film written by John Knoll.
*Gary Whitta has been involved with the writing of After Earth as well as The Book of Eli.
*I hope this is as much fun as I believe it to be.
Pros:
*The cameos and references to the other films.
*K-2SO!
*Donnie Yen as Chirrut
*Honestly all the new characters were pretty awesome.
*Any moment with Darth Vader.
*The fight/battle scenes were awesome.
*This is by far my favorite work from Gareth Edwards so far.
*It's so much cooler than I was hoping.
Cons:
*Not enough of Vader lol.
Verdict:
I don't know which punks are complaining about having Star Wars films every year, but I for one happily approve. Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Rogue One are excellent entries into the saga. I'm hoping Episode 8 and the Han Solo one off will be just as good. The newly introduced characters of the lore here were awesome. The battles were truly intense. I mean the last half of this movie will have you on the edge of your seat. It's so much fun. Definitely a must watch if you haven't gotten around to it yet.
