![]() ![]() ![]() This is a different kind of Star Wars taking a dark tone with a group of somewhat forgettable characters. The scale of destruction was also wild with huge amounts of debris being sent everywhere and it was also very dark at most moments. The CGI was absolutely incredible in the film truly making each setting come alive and recreating some of the most magical elements of the series. They also continued the odd love that this series has for desert planets, but that one is a big surprise for fans and a bit disappointing to see what happened with it. They basically doubled the amount of known planets in the other movies (for those unfamiliar with the extended universe or larger new film universe) and it was hard to keep track of them all. The scale of the worlds that were visited in this film was larger in scale than any of the previous entries. It was particularly odd that the rebellious convict was even discussing certain mission aspects with the core Rebel leaders and it felt off. The tone was also really dark and yet still attempted to reach epic heights despite having no characters that should bring that level of required stakes. There's also a wide variety of cameos thrown into this film in order to almost force this into the franchise and it felt a bit off there. This almost felt a bit off considering that they could have taken more chances with this or even packed an emotional punch with a smaller group, but that was thrown to the side. For those wanting to see the technology of today at full force in a Star Wars film, look no further as it just piles on troop numbers. ![]() Eventually the squad grows with some Force religious type guys and other random rebels.ĭespite focusing on a small group in this film it still was not at all an intimate setting as there were massive space battles and gigantic amounts of carnage. This robot absolutely stole every scene he was in providing a somewhat sarcastic and hilarious point of view. This initial mission sends her outward with Cassian (Diego Luna) and the most charismatic/best member of the rebel squad K-2SO (Alan Tudyk). The rebels break her out from an Imperial prison and want to have her help them find her father. The lead here was Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones), the daughter of The Death Star's creator and one that was definitely always a typical rebellious individual. The general plot of the story was to build on the universe by showing us how The Death Star came to be and where the rebels got the plans at the start of Episode 4. With that in mind it did feel incredibly like a filler telling an interesting story, but one that didn't entirely feel necessary. I suppose expectations are going to be high on this coming off of Episode 7 and preceding Episode 8. Stops everytime a scene switches and then all of a sudden starts vibrating like a cheap motel bed (not that I know anything such as that).This is the first in what's supposed to be everlasting years of Star Wars Anthology films and it was generally average. Why only AVERAGE you ask!?! Did you forget the 20 min ordeal of driving in circles looking for a parking spot as you go from aisle to aisle looking for a glimmer of daylight to squeeze your vehicle into - after such activity, you hope no one door dinged or bumper smacked your car!?!? Note to self.leave the car and walk!!! It'll be faster! DBOX really isn't worth the hype - maybe it will get better! It moves you around a bit, sort of tilts in the general direction of the scenes. It's close to where I live and it's quite modern, has all the best Movie tech and the best movies. OK.shoot me.for all those who said DBOX was a waste of time, I just had to fall for it! It's Star Wars!!!! SilverCity is cool. ![]()
