Take up a good SW movie, eliminate all of the cute, kiddie stuff, add good dialogues and Rogue One is what you get.
It strike a comfortable middle ground with clear, well-defined action sequences, familiar faces and technologies of the past, new, likeable characters, and tragedy: the large-scale effects are particularly well-rendered, like in any SW movie.
The air was spicy with the upcoming SW rebirth at the time. It is kind of interesting to get back to this movie and imagine what the franchise could have been if the right persons were assigned at the right places since.
Second or third best Star Wars movie ever made, IMO.
