Solo - A Star Wars spin-off that did the job in explaining how Han become the Solo we knew, how he met and befriended Chewbacca and of course how he get his Millennium Falcon..
It also has all the elements of Star Wars, except the light saber fighting. To be fair, Alden Ehrenreich did a solid job as Solo (better than what I’ve anticipated as per the trailers) and Emilia Clarke ( as Qira) as well as Donald Glover (as Lando) are up to mark too.
Having said that, the movie seems to be too reserved and predictable and lack ang surprise element, if at all (even the supposedly “twist” seems tired). Also, I noticed that the cinematic tone is a bit too dim/gloomy for my liking (I suspect it is the reason why my eyelid getting heavier half-way through the movie).
Overall, it’s just another average Star Wars spin-off. Watchable but also forgettable.
My rating is 3 (out of 5 stars)
Have you watched Solo? What is your review?
I really like the previous spin off, Rogue One. Is this as good?
@jrvacation : Personally think that Rogue One is better than this..
