Expected it to be terrible, actually liked it


I was gonna skip it cuz it looked like it was gonna be a dumpster fire. The trailer was awful. Ended up getting free tickets for my kids and I and, low and behold, we all actually liked it. It wasn't great, but it was good. I thought they handled the characters well. I was not happy about the casting of Donald Glover but I was surprised at how well he played Lando. Overall, I'm satisfied with this film. I may not watch it again, but it was at least entertaining.

For free, what more can you ask for? I am kind of glad that when I do watch it on rented blu it may not be the chore to get through that TLJ was while I was stuck in the theater.

Its not a bad movie by any means. I think most people just agree it was disappointing for a Star Wars movie and unnecessary for the character of Han Solo.

I agree and I hope positive word of mouth gives it a little bit of a boost. Sure it wasn't really necessary but fun nonetheless.
