Just saw the film, and I must admit it was great. Blows TFA easilly of the water. Not sure do I want to see episode 8, as it's going to be a dissappointment anyway after this film.
The beginning felt a little confusing at first, but didn't really matter after the film started rolling.
The character played by Donnie Yen was pretty cool. He clearly knows the force, but is untrained to use it. Other than that, reminds me of Yoda in Empire Strikes Back.
Overall the characters were good, as they were viewed as characters that are not perfect. Pretty much the same fashion with the original trilogy, and opposed to the naivistic prequel trilogy, where good guys are righterous good guys and bad guys are speeding and stealing candy because they are bad guys. Pretty much like how Marvel characters differ from DC characters.
The dynamics between the main characters was good.
CGI characters were horrible, I would say they were at videogame level if there already weren't games with more credible/life-like CGI. At least for the key role with lots of screen time, it would've been better to use a live actor (see what I did there).
Darth Vader was ok. One thing I however can't get over with, is how Darth Vader is a character that's running errands for the emperor in the original trilogy, whereas Rogue One he's apparently running his own scheme behind the emperors back (because he wanted the death star being kept as secret from empire). He's turning against tbe emperor in the original after he finds out Luke is his son, yes, but that's more like being opportunistic and figuring out his family in the end is more important than his loyalty for the emperor.
I always thought the ventilation shaft weakness in the death star was a design flaw, that nobody cared to fix because of the empire being too arrogant to do so, but this was quite good and creative solution.
Ending was quite sad, and it makes you think what had happened differently if the rebellion hadn't come for help.
