The last time I loved a Star Wars movie as much as I loved #RogueOne, it was 1977.

Star Wars fans will be very happy with #RogueOne. It’s fun, action packed, doesn’t feel neutered by reshoots. Donnie Yen and K2so standouts.

Theres an amazing amount of footage/dialogue in the #RogueOne trailers and marketing that are not in the film, including Troopers in water.

Real talk though, #RogueOne has probably 4 of my 5 favorite #StarWars scenes of all time #RogueOnepremiere

With all the talk of reshoots and production problems the final cut of Rogue One is worth the wait. Man that 3rd act….so so good.

Also do not read any reviews. So many of the twists and turns have not been revealed in marketing. My jaw hit ground a few times.

One of the best things about Rogue One are the new characters. They’re so well done and expand the universe. You care about all of them.

ROGUE ONE’s real secret weapon is d.p. Greig Fraser, whose underlit, dreamy frames rep a brave stylistic break from today’s blockbuster look

#RogueOne is FANTASTIC. Incredible action, both planetary and interstellar, and looks GORGEOUS. Most importantly, it feels like Star Wars.

ROGUE ONE = excellent. People around me saying even better than THE FORCE AWAKENS. Congrats Disney/Lucasfilm/amazing talent involved.

#RogueOne spoiler-free review: wow.

ROGUE ONE is phenomenal.
— Brian Lynch (@BrianLynch) December 11, 2016
More seriously, #RogueOne was well executed and Star Wars down to its bones. I loved it.
— Amy Ratcliffe (@amy_geek) December 11, 2016
So… #RogueOne? It’s freaking great! So many crowd-pleasing moments! It’s emotional, exciting and incredibly satisfying. Loved it!
— Eric Goldman (@TheEricGoldman) December 11, 2016
#RogueOne is pretty much everything I was hoping for & then some. So moving/satisfying for so many reasons. Already dying for a 2nd viewing.
