Great flick - thought the pacing was great, it looked fantastic visually, decent character development. Worked in the odd nostalgic callback much better than TFA. I appreciated the slightly more complicated plot, have felt that Star Wars has gotten a bit too simple and predictable in their plot lines. Saw a few sub 10 year old kids and i can't help but think the ending was a bit dark for youngsters like that.
Where TFA went for a lot of big epic shots (X wings coming in across the water), Rogue One went for busier but more visually interesting shots. Some really good set design, liked seeing some new ships for both the rebellion and the empire.
Really want to see it again soon as I think there is likely a few things I missed on the first viewing.
