Solo: A Star Wars Review



When it was announced that a Han Solo origin story was next in the Star Wars Anthology series, enthusiasm hit an all-time low. The last time Star Wars tackled an origin story on one of its iconic character's, it didn't bode well with most audiences. Things weren't any better behind-the-scenes when the film's original directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller clashed with the producers that they were booted off the project; fours months after production began. (The duo do receive an executive producer credit). With Ron Howard stepping in the director's chair, does Solo: A Star Wars Movie  mange to be a fun ride or completely pointless?
