   I thought this was a very fun film. Nice action and cool characters. Had some stuff for the hardcore fans, but also could easily be enjoyed by newbies to Star Wars. 5 years 10 months ago

   A lot better than I expected. Rogue One played it too safe, and Last Jedi tried too hard to be different. This one struck a nice balance. This is a character driven story with relatively low stakes, and for the first time in any Star Wars movie, it feels like the omnipresent constraint of The Hero's Journey isn't there. Han is presented as a liar and a cheat and a scoundrel, and, no spoilers, he messes up quite a bit, and we get to see him learn the trade along the way. Most of the points you expect to be there are there:

   Han meets Chewy in this movie, he meets Lando Calrissian, he wins the Millenium Falcon in a poker game, he does the Kessel Run. He shoots first.

   , but they're done in just a creative enough way as to be interesting. The few new characters are intriguing and the action scenes are quite effective. I, like many fans, went in expecting a disaster. Instead, we got a film that, in my opinion, is superior to both Rogue One and Last Jedi. 5 years 10 months ago
