In fact, because it bridges generations so well, it feels rather organic. Though it's a one-off, it never feels completely foreign from what's come before. Set during Imperial-Rebel wartime, this is a Beings-on-a-Mission film involving a disparate group of humanoids, aliens and one hilariously sarcastic droid (think: The Darth-y Dozen). This intermingling of past, present, and future gets done exceedingly well, especially considering these strands never sacrifice the crackerjack standalone story at the movie's center.
In fact, it even spackles (fearing a deadly backlash, the words "improve upon" will be avoided) certain plotholes from the original trilogy and provides audiences with a throughline to the second trilogy. It shares much with that vaunted classic, including characters (some beloved, some minor) and interlinking storylines (some kickass, some Easter egged). As the central plot involves the blueprint for the Death Star, a key plotpoint in the first act of Star Wars Episode IV from 1977, it's not spoilerish to say that the franchise's latest entry leads right up into that very same flick. Part sci-fi flick, part sequel, part war movie, part prequel, and part character-driven adventure, Rogue One is many things to many moviegoers but the whole package proves quite entertaining, able to satisfy new fans while pacifying most long-time diehards save for the true curmudgeons. In this PG-13-rated sci-fi adventure, the daughter (Felicity Jones) of an Imperial scientist (Mads Mikkelsen) joins the Rebel Alliance in a risky move to steal the Death Star plans. Rating: PG-13 (Sci-Fi Violence and Action)Ī Rogue agent in all of the right ways, this superb Star Wars Story might have much of the franchise's storied mythology running through its DNA but its edgy design and execution speaks of a bold and exciting jump into a new hyperspace for the historic series.
Knowing that her father holds the key to its destruction, Jyn joins forces with a spy and other resistance fighters to steal the space station's plans for the Rebel Alliance. Many years later, Galen becomes the Empire's lead engineer for the most powerful weapon in the galaxy, the Death Star. His peaceful existence comes crashing down when the evil Orson Krennic takes him away from his beloved family. Former scientist Galen Erso lives on a farm with his wife and young daughter, Jyn.
