My Review

As with all of my reviews I will not go into the plot

I am a major Star Wars fan and I have to say without a doubt that Solo is the worst Star Wars movie ever. I just saw it today and this is the only time after I have seen a Star Wars film and barely remember what happened in the film.

Everything about Solo was off. The score is horrible. The action scenes are too long probably because the action was so monotonous. Alden Ehrenreich is horrible as Han. The most insulting part of the film was how Han got his name.

The only thing that prevented me for giving Solo a lower rating was that it was a Star Wars film, and it adds some interesting things into Canon.

The other big problem for me was that it set up for a sequel. I thought the Star Wars Stories were supposed to be one offs. I loved Rogue One and how it tied to Canon but was a one off self contained film. When Rogue One was over I saw how the film tied to Canon. Solo, on the other hand, only served to give me a few tidbits of back story to things that didn't really matter. I will not spoil the ending, but all I have to say about it was that it was very disappointed, as it was a tie in to Star Wars Rebels rather than the main series.

If you are a Star Wars fan you have to see it because it is part of Canon, if you are not a fan you should just wait for it to come out on Netflix.

Rating - C minus (Movie Pass no food)

I watched it couple of days ago and i fell asleep :D

Thanks for commenting. I actually had some head nods during the train scene, because you got the whole idea of it in the trailer.

I am really laughing here, because that's exactly where I probably lost it 😂 that means it's just really bad.
