ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY (2016) MOVIE REACTION - BLEW ME AWAY! - FIRST TIME WATCHING - REVIEW

Welcome to our first-time watching as we react to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016). Happy May the 4th to all! Today we get to go back to a galaxy far, far away and experience a thrilling tale of rebel heroes, daring missions, and all the bravery and sacrifice it took to have a chance in defeating the Empire.

Directed by Gareth Edwards, "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" (2016) follows a group of unlikely heroes who band together to steal the plans for the Death Star, the Empire's ultimate weapon of destruction. We already know how things go down thanks to "A New Hope" but this film recontextualizes and allows us to appreciate the bravery and sacrifice these rebels showcased in order to give the good guys a shot at destroying the iconic Death Star.

This is an untold story that truly enriches the other films and ties everything together neatly. The characters in this film are amazing as well. From the fearless Jyn Erso played wonderfully by Felicity Jones to Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) these characters feel fearless and brave despite the odds and remind us that we should all stand for what is right. The return of the enigmatic Darth Vader is also a plus! He was absolutely ruthless in this!

We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary and review as we discuss the different elements that made this film so enjoyable. From the amazing cinematography by Greig Fraser to the fantastic score by Michael Giacchino there's lots to talk about so sit back, relax and let's dive right into a galaxy far, far away.
