MovieWise Analysis
The Story: In 2016, audiences were introduced to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Taking place within the realm of Action, Adventure, Science Fiction, the story highlights A rogue band of resistance fighters unite for a mission to steal the Death Star plans and bring a new hope to the galaxy.
