78% on RT

The main grip is that almost all the characters are flawed and unmemorable

Didn't say this would happen after the reaction Tweets?

Fanboys are freaking out

Don't give a shyt. From the reviews of people I respect as far their movie opinions and especially Star Wars opinions go, I'm in.

Quotes like, "In the end, this hardening of the franchise seems likely to alienate both the fans and the uninitiated." keep me from giving half these critics any credibility.

Sounds like a lot of people are also upset that we're dealing with a group of people who essentially everyone already knows aren't going to make it. I mean, we know these nikkas don't show up in Eps 4-7, so they're not gonna make it. I personally enjoy a good story about a doomed crew just trying to accomplish their mission. Its probably why I enjoyed Halo Reach's story honestly more than any of the others. We already knew Master Chief was the only Spartan left. Lets see how these muhfukkas went out. And Star Wars needs some grittiness and real stakes to it. Just a goofy fantasy universe. Would please me to see nikkas get murked.

Only fakkits didn't like The Force Awakens. This movie will be another classic.

The fact that you called TFA a classic means you're extremely biased towards this franchise, and you have abysmal fukking taste.

sounds like people that actually like Star Wars like this. Reading and watching some of the mainstream reviews from non-fans, they are surprised at it being cynical and gritty compared to TFA, which they love, not realizing a lot of fans have wanted gritty for decades and didn't like TFA. TFA was middle of the road Star Wars to me.

I wouldn't call myself a Star Wars fan. I enjoy sci-fi, and the fantasy aspects of the franchise just feel cheap and cheesy to me at time as well as the cutesy robots and shyt. This franchise needs a shot of adrenaline and realism and real stakes. If that's what this gives us, then I'm all for it.

Man look go with your own views and watch the movie but fukk rotten tomatoes When the hell did that site become the authority on what's good and what isn't? I'll be watching this weekend I've been looking forward to this.

A subpar 78...not surprised.

Did people forget about all of the director/disney fukkery that took place?

Rogue 1....

Some more here comes the white woman to save the day nonsense. I'll pass. They're gonna make their money regardless, but a side of me does get a very small kick out of Trump winning considering this flick was supposed to coincide with Hillary hype.

We definitely need more tragic and dark films in the fantasy genre. If people can't handle it, they can re-watch Avatar and shyt like that because those 'everything works out' movies are a dime a dozen.

These reviews

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

Time to go on IMDB and bask In the disappointment

A subpar 78...not surprised.

And if it reaches 85?

 

[Makavalli]

critics complaining bout the grittyness of this is retarded. Its a stand alone film because every star wars fan should know these nikkas die but the mission was complete. Its star wars pearl harbor

Cacs think they slick by substituting the white male savoir trope with the white women savoir trope . The Force Awakens had to be the worst example of that, I still remember Finn's goof ass screaming n shyt. REYYYYYYY!!!
