First of all, except for some close-up shots that are slightly strange, the comprehensive performance of the new Solo actors is okay; secondly, the film has the most passionate shots in the entire series, and you should understand everything you have seen; finally, the Millennium Falcon is true ... It's hard work, it's hard work. Then there is the biggest question of the film: Which pair of passersby is Tiger and Bink? Crossed out above. Now is the real biggest problem of the film: a film in which almost all the key plot points need to have the foundation of the previous game to see the fun, can you say that you are STAND-ALONE?

Anyone who has seen the movie or the specific one should know that Moore appeared near the end of the film. Wearing mechanical legs, he claims to be in the home star Dathomir, and he holds the judge's sword from "Rise of the Rebels" in his hand...
So the question arises: Why did a villain who fell into the abyss after being chopped up in "Phantom Menace" many years ago, now suddenly became a behind-the-scenes boss in a rumor?
To understand this without barriers, you must have watched at least part of the animation "The Clone Wars", and perhaps add a little bit of "Rise of the Rebels." However, even in Star Wars base camps such as North America, there is a hidden hierarchical relationship between the big screen and the small screen (not to mention publications). The audiences of the two have never completely overlapped. Considering that Star Wars is film-oriented, there are even a considerable number of people who are pure film audiences.
As for the situation in Mainland China, it is even more obvious.
The appearance of So Guerrera in "Rogue One" is not a big problem. After all, no matter how thin the screen image of Gerrella is, at least there is a relatively complete account, and it can be called a self-contained one. When Moore appeared almost as an Easter egg, it suddenly became a problem.
As far as the threshold for viewing movies is concerned, if it is considered reasonable to have seen previous movies, it is obviously open to question to have seen previous animations. Even if someone uses Moore to assert that the timeline of the film is before "Phantom Threat", what is your real position to criticize others?
And Moore's "surprise" arrangement is almost a microcosm of the dilemma of the film, that is, the biggest problem raised earlier.
From Solo and Chubacca not knowing each other, to Solo and Lando betting on the Millennium Falcon, to the Millennium Falcon being smashed to pieces... These bridges are not so difficult for passers-by to understand, but As a friend said-understanding and seeing fun are two different things. In the presentation of the corresponding plot, the film did not reach the latter level.
So "Solo" is such a movie: it is true that you can "understand" with zero basis (even Moore's Easter eggs, such things as resurrection due to death are not a problem in the face of zero basis), but you need enough foundation to watch Out of fun.
SO BE IT.
70/100.
