My mini-review (No Spoilers) from the M/TV Board:

quote:

Thoroughly enjoyed Solo. Reminded me of being a kid seeing A New Hope for the first time.

Just fun from start to finish and never tried to be anything more than it was.

The kid playing Han was able to make you feel like you were watching a young and inexperienced Han Solo and was smart enough to not try to do a Harrison Ford impression.

Donald Glover nailed Lando, right down to Billy Dee's speech patterns.

Shout out to Ron Howard for coming in late and delivering a coherent, fun, Star Wars movie.


Don't let anyone on here fool you. There's absolutely nothing politically offensive in the movie.

I heard the same thing.

I’m boycotting SW until Kathleen Kennedy is fired though.

I don't think this is really the point. I haven't seen many say it was a bad movie, but they are hoping the box office forces disney's hand to rethink what they are doing with star wars. Solo tanking has more to do with TLJ than whether it's a good movie or not.

Not why I am refusing to buy a ticket.

I will not pay to see a SW movie, until I am convinced they can correct the craptastic path the main series is on.

Until then, it's a nope

TLJ is the reason Solo is tanking.
