Solo: A Star
Wars Story
Through
a series of daring escapades deep within a dark and dangerous criminal
underworld, Han Solo meets his mighty future co-pilot Chewbacca and encounters
the notorious gambler Lando Calrissian.
Woeful from
beginning to end, offering nothing new in regards to either aesthetic or
subtext. Like the previous prequel in the franchise, this was designed merely
to regurgitate scantly explored ideas in an exercise of referential
ascertainment that for some reason people find gratifying. Like a well of water
that will never run out. In the past, I have spent a great deal of ink on here
explaining why this saddens me. By all means, enjoy your garbage.
