It was awesome. Not on the scale of ROTJ or even ROTS space battles, this one matched the nuance of R1's entirety perfectly. I really liked the shield idea & having to both infiltrate & eventually destroy it.
The battle really didn't need more than the handful of Star Destroyers or Rebel lead ships... & the ground battle was ideal with the troopers & Walkers trying to wipe out the small group of Rebels.

I loved it. I do wish we got a bit more beachfront battling, though. There was that incredible shot of the stormtroopers hopping down onto the beach and being rushed by rebels while the music just stopped and the sound effects took charge, which was awesome. It reminded me of Saving Private Ryan, but I still wanted more of that.

Yes, it was awesome. The battle of Scarif is one of my favorite battle sequences in movies in recent years.

It was awesome. The kind of gritty Star Wars I've been waiting for!
I just wish the stormtroopers were portrayed more competently instead of just running straight into fire or getting knocked out by a blind man with a stick.

Superbly done. Only nitpicks are too many rehashed themes like a Mon Calamari commander and stormtroopers are too incometent at times.
But this is redeemed by the realistic, lethal war movie outcome. That weirdly peaceful music plus cinematography when the Death Star finally arrives is among Star Wars' finest moments. |

It's what saved the movie for me. Everything else is dull.

Some of the best action in a SW film since Return of the Jedi.

Of course it was awesome! Any Mon Calamari admiral can appreciate the excellent strategy. And don't forget the bravado and trap spotting.
