Â but after that I was absolutely glued to my seat.I agree with the first point, although I actually liked the opening scene as hard as it was to jump right into, I liked the aesthetic and it did a better job of establishing the regular menace of the Empire than anything in the original trilogy.
Other than that, the only real complaint I have about the movie is that CGI people aren't ready to replace real actors. Â Tarkin was distracting and weird lookin.
But I don't agree with the second. Yes, its obviously not perfect, but I thought that having Tarkin (a wonderful character) added so much continuity and power to this film that a little suspension of disbelief was warranted in terms of accepting his CGIed stand in.  Totally worth it!
But I really do like, "What's a Moff?" Tarkin. (Peter Cushing added so much gravitas to A New Hope, and to the Empire itself. It could not have been the same franchise without him).
