The Playlist
Rogue One is a very good “Star Wars” film, frustratingly though, it falls short of being a truly great one. - 80
The Guardian
This is another really entertaining fantasy with fan-fiction energy and attack. - 80
The Telegraph
But in its best moments, there’s a yarn-spinning intimacy to it too – an old war story told around a spectacular campfire. - 80
The Hollywood Reporter
What fans will get here is loads of action, great effects, good comic relief, stunning locations (Iceland, Jordan and the Maldives) and some intriguing early glimpses of the Galactic Empire as it begins to flex its inter-galactic power. - 80
Empire
The ultimate Star Wars fan film, it’s short on whimsy but when it gets going there’s enough risk-taking and spectacle to bode well for future standalones. - 75
Movie Nation
It’s almost wholly satisfying — witty, warm and entertaining — a film in which fatalism isn’t a joke, where pitiless death is doled out by Empire and Rebellion, where those deaths have weight and meaning, where suspense is genuine. - 70
We Got This Covered
Rogue One makes up for a shaky first act by punching into overdrive for an outstanding third act battle sequence that overwhelms in scale and intensity. - 63
Slant Magazine
Rogue One is less the fetish object that The Force Awakens is because it at least has the ambitions to create its own character dynamics and plot routes rather than coast on existing ones.
