Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
Jyn Erso leads the Rebel Alliance in a risky move to steal the plans for the Death Star, setting up the epic saga to follow.
"Forget about the Skywalker family saga. This movie, which takes place right before the events of 'A New Hope', carries on the 'war' aspect of the franchise and invests in entirely new and charismatic characters. In addition to filling in many gaps from the beginning of the classic trilogy, the feature film also invests heavily in social and political commentary. A great example of cinema, whether you're a Star Wars fan or not. Watch all the films in the saga."
