Jyn Erso è la figlia di Galen Erso, un ingegnere scientifico ribelle, costretto dall'Impero alla costruzione di un'arma di distruzione di massa nota come la Morte Nera. Jyn ha cercato per quindici anni di dimenticare il padre, dandolo per morto, finché un pilota disertore non le ha consegnato un messaggio urgente segreto, proveniente da Galen stesso. Insieme al capitano Cassian Andor e al suo droide imperiale riprogrammato dai ribelli, la ragazza parte allora alla ricerca del genitore e di uno spiraglio per fermare i piani apocalittici del malvagio imperatore.   Rogue One è "una storia di Star Wars", una delle tante possibili nell'universo sviluppatosi dal Big Bang mentale di George Lucas, oggi in piena, rinnovata espansione.  La Disney promette già un capitolo dietro l'altro, come sta facendo con l'acquisita Marvel, e allora forse, tra qualche anno, Rogue One non apparirà più grande di una "stellina" nel firmamento della saga, ma, anche fosse, sarà una stella con una sua luce propria, solida e brillante, per ragioni diverse e concorrenti. Prima, la sua posizione geografica nella mappa stellare: temporalmente precedente al quarto (Una nuova speranza) e successivo al terzo (La vendetta dei Sith), questo episodio è contenuto niente meno che da quarant'anni in quella prima didascalia scorrevole del primo Guerre Stellari di sempre ("...Navi spaziali ribelli, dopo aver colpito una base segreta, hanno ottenuto la loro prima vittoria contro il malvagio Impero Galattico. Durante la battaglia, spie ribelli sono riuscite a rubare i piani tecnici dell'arma decisiva dell'Impero, la Morte Nera...").  C'è poi la sua posizione simbolica, all'indomani del primo capitolo del nuovo canone, firmato J.J. Abrams: un film che, nel bene o nel male, al di là della sua natura di calco, ha mantenuto la promessa di risarcire i fan delusi dalla seconda trilogia di Lucas e di riportarli "a casa". Infine, la sua posizione estetica: di gran lunga più interessante, più polverosa e action, di quella proposta dal "Risveglio della forza". Soprattutto, Rogue One , pur inserendosi a cuneo come un "midquel", è un episodio indipendente, che sa sfruttare la libertà che deriva da questa indipendenza per fare quello che Abrams non ha voluto o potuto fare, vale a dire raccontare una nuova storia. Estraendo la giovane Jyn dal nascondiglio sotterraneo, il personaggio di Whitaker dissotterra letteralmente qualcosa che era ancora sepolto, riportando in superficie il piacere dell'invenzione. Il film ci mette un bel po' ad ingranare, ma, una volta che la squadra è al completo, non ha incertezze né cadute di tono. Presi singolarmente i componenti dell'equipaggio non appaiono straordinari: non lo è il droide che fa calcoli probabilistici né l'orientale cieco che crede nella Forza, ma è l'eroismo del gruppo a funzionare. Lì c'è Star Wars. Non solo e non tanto nelle apparizioni digitali, a loro modo ologrammatiche, dei vecchi eroi, ma nel sacrificio dei nuovi, che, rapidi come meteore, brevi come vite di santi, si fanno subito leggenda. L'impronta della serie è chiaramente anche altrove: nella coppia Felicity Jones-Diego Luna (il quale sfugge dal sabotare involontariamente il film, riprendendo punti sul fronte romantico), nei salti nell'iperspazio, nelle scene canoniche nelle città piantonate dall'esercito e nei bar malfamati, nel tema musicale di Darth Vader. Ma è più che mai nella sua indipendenza dall'obbligo di far tornare i conti a colpi di spiegoni che sta la felicità del film di Gareth Edwards: un "pilota" che non avrà un gran senso dell'umorismo, ma sa come diavolo si manovra un film di fantascienza.

As the rebels are setting charges on Scarif, they twist them to, presumably, arm them, the second or third charge never gets twisted. <br>------------------------<br><br>A giant Jedi statue, lying in the sand, is at first lying on its left side (like in Trailer #2), but zooming out, it is lying on its right side. <br>------------------------<br><br>In the opening sequence, the Imperial shuttle is flying to Galen's farm to take him back to the Empire, and can be seen flying over Jyn's head as she runs back to the farm to warn her parents. The shuttle knows where Galen lives and presumably flies in a straight line, yet arrives well after Jyn arrives, leaving Jyn plenty of time to talk to her father and be hidden in the cave by her mother. <br>------------------------<br><br>When landing the Transport the crew is preparing for landing as they deploy landing gear. You even hear them say that the landing gear is locked in position. Minutes later, when they actually are landing, you see the the landing gear coming out of the Transport, not being deployed earlier. <br>------------------------<br><br>When Jyn Erso is talking to Saw Gerrera, the position of his breathing mask changes. It mostly hangs to one side of his chest, but in one close up shot it is in a different position without the character having moved it. It returns to the previous position in the wide shot. <br>------------------------<br><br>At the first appearance of Orson Krennic the wind is blowing very strong and his cape is moving very strong too. But during the close-up Scenes the cape almost doesn't move. In different shots it's moving strong again. <br>------------------------<br><br>When the shuttle lands on Scarif all of the palm trees surrounding the landing pad are coconut palms. Later an exterior shot of the shuttle shows date palms with pruned leaf bases. These palms are easily available and transplanted as mature trees as the trees in this shot were. <br>------------------------<br><br>When Krennic goes to take Galen Erso, it is raining. His suit is wet and drops of water are hanging from his insignia (the six red rectangles). The drops appear and disappear between shots. <br>------------------------<br><br>When Krennic is talking with Galen in the opening scene, we see a young Jyn sneak up to within a few meters of where they are, but in the opening wide angle shot, we see that the belt of green vegetation is actually quite narrow and is surrounded by relatively flat and open terrain. <br>------------------------<br><br>The U-Wing has a very different door design from the practical version (Yavin IV, Edu) to the CGI version (departing Yavin IV, Jedha). <br>------------------------<br><br>In several of the trailers, there is a scene where two X-wing pilots are walking past two large hangars. In the background is a modern piece of construction equipment clearly bearing the logo of JCB, a UK-based manufacturer. (It's possible this will be cleaned up in post-production). <br>------------------------<br><br>During Darth Vader's first scene on Mustafar, light from the window behind him is visible through the lower part of his ventilator and it is also possible to see part of Spencer Wilding's head. <br>------------------------<br><br>As the camera pans into the control centre of the data bank station for the first time, we see officers huddling around a couple of consoles. These consoles appear to be rugged and firmly planted to the deck. However one of the furthermost console was visibility nudged out of position as the camera away (towards Krennic). <br>------------------------<br><br>When the shuttle's thrusters ignite a conscious Jyn is pushed backwards to the edge of the platform but an unconscious Galen, who is nearer to the shuttle than Jyn, stays at the same spot and in the same position as before the ignition. <br>------------------------<br><br>When the U-Wing was approaching the Imperial Kyber refinery, it took a hit on the rock. Upon impact, Bodhi fell backward. He should have fallen forward due to inertia when the vehicle reduced speed hitting the rock. <br>------------------------<br><br>When the Imperial officers in the main tower see the explosions on the landing pads, the sound reaches them simultaneously. The distant landing pads are about a kilometer or so from the main tower, so there should have been a brief delay of a few seconds before the sound reaches them. <br>------------------------<br><br>A rifle scope would not produce stereoscopic image (as seen in the 3D version of the movie) , as two lenses are needed for that to work, not one. Even if it did, that would be pointless, as only one eye is always used to look through the scope. <br>------------------------<br><br>When Darth Vader is staring after the escaping corvette, he is standing merely on a ramp in space. There can be no air around him. He could survive, but the Stormtroopers behind him couldn't. The regular Stormtrooper armor is not a space suit and it has no air supply. There are "Space troopers", but they look very different from regular Stormtroopers. <br>------------------------<br><br>After Darth Vader massacres the soldiers on the corridor and the Blockade Runner escapes, he is standing on a ramp on the bottom of the cruiser, looking after the departing corvette. He is in vacuum, yet his cape is flapping in the wind. Even if we assume that some air was escaping from the ship into space, it'd move the cape to the other direction. There is no way wind could blow from the outside to inside. <br>------------------------<br><br>When the actual Death Star schematic is shown on a screen, it has an error - the superlaser dish is shown on the equatorial trench; it is actually above this trench, not on it. This may be a deliberate error done as a throwback to Guerre stellari, which has the same apparent goof. <br>------------------------<br><br>At Jedha more than once in the wide shots the Death Star is upside down as shown by the superlaser dish being on the bottom half of the station when it should be on the top half.<br><br>The Death Star was rotated upside down for the attack. There's nothing inherently wrong with doing this in space since there is no true up or down in zero gravity. <br>------------------------<br><br>We see Bail Organa leave the Rebel base on the Yavin moon to return to Alderaan to enlist, presumably, Leia. When the rebel fleet leaves the base to join the battle of Scarif, we see R2D2 and C3PO still on the ground, yet the Tantive IV is one of the first rebel ships at the battle. Somehow, R2D2 and C3PO show up aboard the Tantive IV when it's captured at the start of A New Hope. <br>------------------------<br><br>The Death Star displays the ability to completely demolish planets in Rogue One. However in the original 1977 film A New Hope, there are numerous references to the battle station not yet being fully operational. In fact, there is a quote spoken to Princess Leia in the 1977 film: "In a way, you have determined the choice of the planet that will be destroyed first." <br>------------------------<br><br>During the space battle over Scarif, in one shot of Gold Leader's Y-Wing cockpit, the edge of the Death Star's equatorial trench can be seen through the back window of the cockpit behind him. This is reused footage from the rebel attack on the Death Star from Guerre stellari. <br>------------------------<br><br>When Jyn , Cassian and the other volunteers depart the rebel headquarters for Scarif in the stolen Imperial ship, as the ship departs into the atmosphere you can see on the top right corner of the screen the faint image (or shadow) of the same ship departing. A slight smidgen of CGI error. <br>------------------------<br><br>When Saw Gerrera interrogates Bodhi Rook, Saw reaches for his breathing mask and knocks off the pipe connected to his suit. Cut to Bodhi then back to Saw and the pipe is back in place. <br>------------------------<br><br>When Galen Erso is lying on the ground, his angled leg changes. First his left leg is angled, then his right and finally his left leg again. <br>------------------------<br><br>A corridor and platform lead to Princess Leia's ship from the back; this is most evident when Vader stands on the platform as the ship flies away. However, the ship doesn't have a hatch in the back; there's only the engines and thrust nozzles. <br>------------------------<br><br>
