To be honest, reviewing this film might be deemed unfair on both my end and yours. Well, in the first place, I am not really a fan of this galaxy-storified movie saga called Star Wars (But don't get me wrong; I don't hate it either). However, yours truly managed to watch this movie courtesy of my other task as a blog contributor for the entertainment startup Star Powerhouse and MySky. 

So I saw this movie last week and boy, this appeared to be different from the franchise itself. Well, indeed it is because Rogue One was aimed and delivered to be the first stand-alone movie from the Star Wars saga, with characters different from what has been familiar to me before. Apart from Princess Leila and Darth Vader, who else have at least ring a bell for me there?
