The "Star Wars: Rogue One" has released largely positive reviews and a fairly healthy buzz. If it is not quite the thundering elation and rock solid critical reception of the last year's the force awakens. The movie was action packed and it had some great characters, it ended with a bang. However, there are big problems about this movie.

"Star Wars: Rogue One" is another Death Star Plot

"Star Wars: Rogue One" though visually striking still, something was missing both as a film on its own merits and as a Star Wars movie. It was hard to be shocked and awed on the movie since you already know that it is just the first of three that is blown up by the rebels. The second two got blown up without the help of Gelan erso's trap. However, it is another plot that centered on the Death Star, and it felt uninspiring, especially when there is an entire galaxy of other stuff to be explored.

"Star Wars: Rogue One," CGI Tarkin

Straightforwardly the most off-putting instants of the film were the scenes with the CGI version of Grand Moff Tarkin. Tarkin in the movie looks counterfeit matched to the real humans around him; it is too unauthentic that puzzles me why it was included. The director could have placed his appearance only delivered one short line, not next to other actual human actors. The other CGI character in the film looked far improved largely because of her isolation and briefness.

"Star Wars: Rogue One" Too Much Of Too Short

In Rogue One, viewers moved around so much that by the time we arrive at Jedha we can barely remember where exactly we have been. The movie made very little sense; it creates quite a few character deaths, less significant. According to Movieweb, that act was shown as the Death Star showed up and just slain everyone.

"Star Wars: Rogue One" Is Overly Populated

For a self-contained movie where everyone dies, Star Wars: Rogue One sure presented a lot of new characters. It then it sprinkled in previous characters for the nostalgia aspect, from CGI Darth to Vader Bail Organa to Tarkin and Mon Mothma. Finally, there were too many characters and all the new ones were fashioned just to be dead in the end. The mixture makes it both hard to empathize with these people, and hard to want to go back and watch the movie again, says, Forbes.
