Solo: A Star Wars Story

Han Solo’s origin story didn’t exactly smash the box office, but this serviceable action film is better than you’ve been led to believe. Anchored by fun performances by Alden Ehrenreich and Emilia Clarke, the movie is an easy watch, even if it’s not the masterpiece Star Wars fans were hoping for.
