20 Highest Grossing Movies Of 2016 - Ranked Worst To Best

7. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

Suicide Squad
Lucasfilm

Box Office: $400+ million (#17) - at time of press

It may not reach the soaring highs of A New Hope or Empire, but Rogue One is nevertheless a mostly satisfying prequel that serves up stunning visuals, entertaining new characters, and the riveting return of Darth Vader.

Re-shoots have definitely made their mark on the end-product, evidenced by some poor editing and pacing issues, but for the most part it delivers a warm dose of nostalgia and commendably doesn't position itself as anything more than a standalone spin-off.

Hopefully the Han Solo movie might be a little more adventurous, though. And please, no more CGI legacy characters...
