The more I watch Rogue One the more I highly regard it. It definitely captures the spirituality and feel of the first six Star Wars films the best. I love Chirrut and the scenes on Jedha especially. I appreciate how it expands the lore and canon but doesn’t step on the toes of anything that came before or after it. It feels like a love letter to both the Prequels and Originals. I’m always really glad when there’s geninue parallels to the Prequels through ring composition and this film has loads of them. it certainly could use a bit more character development but Sam Witwer made the good point of how in A New Hope we know just about the same amount of information as we do with the characters in Rogue One. It’s really a good point. All and all it’s a beautiful looking film with lots of fun and interesting themes.
