    Looking at it another way, it's the British politics answer to Dunkirk.
    It's predictable because it's history.

      I saw Solo...it wasn't awful but it wasn't really good. It was better than The Last Jedi and Rogue Yawn though so there is that...

      The film would have been better if it had zero to do with Han Solo. That didn't work. He isn't Han and Glover is not Lando. (Though he tried) If the movie had been independent of the original trilogy I think it may not have bombed as bad because everything else is pretty solid. The Kessel Run is excellent.

      And the "surprise" cameo is ridiculous and makes no sense unless you watched The Clone Wars which no one outside of hardcore fans did. To the rest of us it breaks the timeline.

      I give it a 6... With a more even story divorced from the OT it could have been way better. It had prenatal but squandered it in stupid story lines like Android Civil Rights and paint by numbers criminal heist plots.

        Righteous Kill:

        Two cops (DeNiro/Pacino) set out to find a serial killer.

        Not quite what you expect given the movie description. The ending/solution is given away at the beginning, but wait, there's more! While entertaining, the movie thinks it's outwitting its audience, when no, not really. Almost had it, but in the end, nice try. That being said, it is worth a watch if you want a decent crime drama.

          That's basically what I'm expecting from it.

            Then I think you will enjoy it. If you find a way to change his name in your head you will like it even more

                      I didnt think so because I found Don Glover to be kinda of annoying in the part. He is over the top flamboyant in my mind whereas Billy Dee was just naturally smooth I am in the minority on that though.

                      Chewbacca is honestly the bright spot. First movie that has done him justice since ROTJ. If her plot wasnt so completely basic I would say Mother of Dragons Girl was pretty good too. Same with Woody Harrelson.

                      Like I said if you just ignore Han Solo (and we really didnt need to the stupid origin of his name) the movie is much better. That character is Han in Name Only.

                      This movie doesnt add to the lore of Han Solo, it basically tells you (more likes beats you over the head) all the reasons for everything he did in the OT.

                        Ocean's 8. My first Ocean's film ever. Including the original which I also have not seen.

                        Slow burn. Enjoyed the heck out of it. Payoff was brilliant.

                              11 was good, 12 was dumb and the plot was pointless, but 13 was pretty good again IMO. Basically if they were in a casino it was good, if not it was bad, which to me doesn't bode too well for the first one. Also, "Akwafina" is a dumb name.

                                The off-the-cuff banter between Pitt/Clooney was really great in the first one. It just felt natural.
                                Rusty: I need the reason. Don't say money. Why do this?

                                Danny: Why not do it?

                                [Rusty shakes his head]

                                Danny: Because yesterday I walked out of the joint after losing four years of my life and you're cold-decking "Teen Beat" cover boys.

                                [pause]

                                Danny: Because the house always wins. Play long enough, you never change the stakes, the house takes you. Unless, when that perfect hand comes along, you bet big, and then you take the house.

                                [another pause]

                                Rusty: Been practicing that speech, haven't you?

                                Danny: Little bit. Did I rush it? Felt like I rushed it.

                                Rusty: No, it was good, I liked it. "Teen Beat" thing was harsh.
