I quite liked it
Not as bad as I feared not as good as I hoped.
My friend thought it was so so - "neither overwhelming nor underwhelming" she said.

I may see it again at the cinema.
I will buy the dvd

I am always leery of things like this <sigh> I can't think of a single 'Prequel' that didn't 'detract' from the original :-/

I will wait until it shows up on NetFlix <g>

[[ I tend to avoid 'The Cinema' cuz there is no pause button and I can't bring my own beer <g> ]]

It was fine, in a Disney, PG-13/12A homogeneously inoffensive type way.

No scenes where my heart soared or slumped tbh, and most definitely one moment of wtf!? at the end when the big bad was revealed.

If you have one of these weekly free ticket deals, then yes, I'd say go see it, otherwise wait for rental on Instant Video or Netflix, etc.

I (almost) always wait for NetFlix. Can't push 'pause' or enjoy a beer while in the theater <wink>

Oh, I only go to cinemas where I can have a glass of wine or three whilst I watch the film.

Yeah, but you don't live in IN where the liquor laws are stupid and / or archaic <sigh>

There is at least one in NW Indianapolis and one in Fort Wayne where wine can be consumed during a film.

We have mall theaters in the Detroit area with bars inside them and you are allowed, even encouraged, to take your drinks into the the theaters with you.

The last time I went to a Showcase cinema with a bar, I didn't make it out of the bar and into the screen to watch the film! lol

Bad, bad, bad bad…

Disney will be the first up against the wall when the revolution comes.

On the plus side still not as bad as the Last Jedi…

I actually enjoyed it quite a bit.

The actor does not look like Harrison Ford at all. Does not sound like him. That throws things off a bit.

However the story 'feeling' was nice.

I enjoyed it better than Rogue One.

I finally saw Solo and I agree with...

"neither overwhelming nor underwhelming"


But then that describes just about every movie Ron Howard has directed.
