Critics Consensus

A flawed yet fun and fast-paced space adventure, Solo: A Star Wars Story should satisfy newcomers to the saga as well as longtime fans who check their expectations at the theater door.

What's onscreen simply isn't magical enough. It might please die-hard fans to know how Han got the last name or how he made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs...But I think even they might be disappointed.

Rated: 2.5/5

Alden Ehrenreich is a very snappy bit of casting.

A scruffy nerf herder in a "galaxy far, far, away..." Solo: A Star Wars Story, a movie that has no reason to exist, is a fun lovable escapade that gives us a new introduction to the most famous non-Skywalker in the galaxy.

Rated: 3/4

The film is not without heart, though its heart exists in scattered fragments without assimilating into a cohesive whole.

The cast is great, there’s no doubt about it. But there’s a reason why Disney stepped away from creating so many standalone Star Wars films, and I think this film was a contributing factor.

Since the character of Han Solo was already established, the limits of what they could have done weren't huge, but the lack of stakes and consequently the lack of character development reduce this film's influence.
