The CGI face looked just that little bit awkward at parts, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. It just felt really cool seeing Peter Cushing as Tarkin in a scene as if he'd never died.
I've really enjoyed watching the original trilogy, but I don't care about it to the point that I'd say "nothing's sacred anymore" when seeing characters return in new films.
The final scene was great, and it left me wanting more, which I guess is what it's supposed to do, and if it had had any more it could easily have ended up being too much.
Funny video: -

In a few years when someone creates a thread entitled "Do you think Rogue One aged well?" everyone will call the CGI face scenes cringe-worthy or whatever term we use then.
You can't just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry! -

Was going to say don't worry Lucas will update the faces as the tech advancesBut Lucas isn't doing Star Wars anymore, is he?
What is this world we're living in?
According to me, yes. I am the person it's usually according to when I'm talking. -

Felt like a Marvel movie in that its attempts at "world building" somehow make manage to make it all feel smaller. The action is all well executed for the most part, but the storytelling is shallow and the plot is paper thin. I wasn't at all effected by the deaths at the end because none of the central protagonists are developed in a meaningful way. 6 sounds about right.

Well that was actually p. good. Can't beat the classic setting and all the throwbacks. Every scene where they paid tribute to the old movies was the best, like having the AT-ST walk in and fck sh!t up, or the AT-ATs at the end, all the Star Destroyer scenes, pretty much all the main action scenes.
And then Vader rolls in at the end and does the best SW scene by far in the entire series. Well, maybe that's stretching it, Vader vs Luke in ESB and Vader killing the Emp are probably the best scenes overall, but this hallway scene was right up there. Too bad it was only one minute long.
Aside from all that good stuff though, I did find the pacing to be a little off and the development to be not the greatest. It was the mindless fanfare stuff that I enjoyed the most, although explaining why the Death Star had it's sh!tty flaw was a great idea.
I'd say on its own it's like a 7/10 movie, pretty good, but, the fanservice brings it up to an easy 9/10 just for enjoyment.
