I saw it today, and enjoyed it. I felt I was getting into the story, and caring about the characters (which is what it is all about for me), about half way through.

Spoiler:

There's one moment where they are definitely giving the fans what they want, haha. You'll know what it is when you see it.

Though I thought later it doesn't really fit in with what we see in some of the other films.

Spoiler:

Another thing is there is a lot of bits in the trailers which aren't in the films. In fact I watched an Rogue One advert on Youtube after I saw the film, and it had something which isn't in the film.

Spoiler:

I liked the droid's humour, and the blind martial-arts man, and the phrase he repeated at one stage resonated with me, for some reason.

^Minor spoilers.^.

Bigger spoiler points.

Spoiler:

I think the over-thought themselves trying to explain the flaw in the Death Star. If you were going to build in a exploitable flaw, why make it so difficult to hit (the exhaust port).

Spoiler:

The cgi-ing of one character's face looked a bit 'uncanny valley' - like a video game character. I didn't mind the other one though.

Something in the trailer not in film.

Spoiler:

This was the bit in the advert I saw after the film, which wasn't in the film itself.

Oh I loved the explanation of that I thought the hologram scene was great and I don't think it would have been as good with a lesser explanation tbh, but also I just think it adds so much to A New Hope, and without ret-conning anything, I really admired that they were able to do that. I think as well that in building the exploitation flaw, they'd have to prioritise it being kept hidden over being easy to hit, and it would probably be difficult to achieve both.
