Solo 01 A.jpg

A Star Wars movie that is both fun and funny? Say whaaaat???!!!

Directed by Ron Howard. Starring Alden Ehrenreich, Woody Harrelson, Donald Glover, Emilia Clarke, Thandie Newton, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Paul Bettany, Jon Favreau and Joonas Suotamo.

How is the world wrong about this film?

From Bryan: Remember when Star Wars fans wanted a million Star Wars movies. As a kid you wanted to see a new one every year. Guess what? It happened in 2018 and no one showed up. SOLO doesn’t break any rules or add anything new to the franchise, BUT it is hella entertaining!! Alden Ehrenreich and Donald Glover don’t just do imitations of Han and Lando, they put new life into them. Sadly this was an undeserved box office failure. Grab the family, grab the popcorn and watch a Hollywood sequel that isn’t total braindead garbage. Oh and did I mention it’s not three hours long? Praise the heavens!!!
