Jyn was really the only one that mattered and I thought they did a good job with her.
Yeah, as a whole the characters were treated more or less a lot like how the Magnificent Seven have been traditionally treated. "This character is cool because of this", "this character has heart because of this" etc., annnd GO GO GO GO!

It's effectively a war time Star Wars movie. I think they did a spectacular job of making characters interesting, charismatic, and ultimately, tragic.

I'm going back in tomorrow for a 2nd screening (IMAX this time), interested to see it in that format.
