I’m glad I decided to watch all 11 of the Star Wars movies in chronological order. It really did make a difference in how I perceive the entire Skywalker Saga. It also gave me an interesting perspective on the relative quality of the individual movies in comparison with one another.
A couple of nights ago we watched Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, the next movie in the Star Wars chronological timeline after Solo: A Star Wars Story.
This is not a review and it isn’t meant to rain on anybody’s opinion of this movie – it’s simply an attempt to articulate my own feelings about it. Your mileage may mostdefinitely vary.
Rogue One was well-received when it was first released in 2016, and it seems to have held up well with both fans and critics. I remember going to see it at the theater and being blown away. I’ve only watched it a couple of times since, but that isn’t because I didn’t like it.
Warning! Spoilers Below (if there can be such a thing as spoilers for a movie released in 2016).
