Solo: A Star Wars Story

It is said that the universe was still the era when the heroes were divided into groups. The street gangster (Alden Ehrenreich) who lives on the gang-controlled planet Corellia can no longer endure such depressing living conditions, and uses stolen super fuel to bribe border officials to escape. And attended the Naval Academy, because he was an orphan, the recruiting officers gave him the name Solo (meaning loner), so he was the famous Han in all the previous "Star Wars" series where Harrison Ford played. Solo's predecessor (see my blog post "Another New Beginning Star Wars: The Force Awakens"). The unfortunate travel companion's childhood sweetheart, Kiera (Emilia Clarke), is caught back for being a step behind. The heartbroken Han Solo vowed to return home and see Chira again in the future.

Time flies, three years have passed, and in one operation, Han Solo not only meets his later brother Chewbacca, but also joins Beckett (Woody Harrelson) and Farr (Tandy Harrelson). · Newton Thandie Newton ornaments) a pair of thieves team. Decided to hijack the train to steal super fuel. It's a pity that this operation failed, and it took Farr's life.

In fact, the entire operation was ordered by mob boss Dryden (Paul Bettany). In order to remedy this mistake, they decided to steal the raw ore of super fuel again, and then send it for processing. At Dryden's banquet, Han Solo also met Qila, a teenage lover who had become Dryden's deputy. Led by her, they borrow the fastest "Millennium Falcon" spacecraft from Lando (Donald Glover).

After a series of thrills, they successfully completed their mission to bring the super fuel back to Dryden. Secretly, Han Solo has colluded with a group of rebels. They kill Dryden and Beckett, and Qi'ra becomes the new gang leader. Han Solo and Chewbacca retrieve Lando and bet his "Millennium Falcon". From there began their smuggling life, until the beginning of the first "Star Wars".

(more powerful spoilers)

Since this is Han Solo's story, it is inevitable that people who eat melons will compare the two actors Alden Ehrenreich and Harrison Ford. It was no easy job for Alden Ehrenreich, it couldn't be exactly the same, it had to fit his character, a thankless job. In the end, complaints are far more than praise. It seems that he is smart, witty, careful and bold. And she also has a hand in flirting. But it is not as steady and sincere as Harrison Ford, and it is also a bit glib, in short, far less than Harrison Ford. I just don't like that he killed Beckett in the end. Speaking of which, Beckett is still his introductory guide. Although he is not a righteous person, he has never hurt his heart. Even in the entire Star Wars series, Han Solo is also a character that is both black and white, but gradually he became a hero. But asking him to sacrifice Beckett's blood in the first place seemed too much.

This is yet another Star Wars story (see my blog post "A Star Wars Story: Rogue One Gives Hope"), and the main selling point of the film is Han Solo, who doesn't get the Most people agree. In addition, many traditional star fans are not satisfied with the diversity of roles. Therefore, in comparison, the score of the film is low. In addition to the recent release of many Star Wars films, it is inevitable that there will be aesthetic fatigue. The film also had lower box office receipts.

However, in the film, the two parts of their team's flying cars to seize the super fuel and the flight of the "Millennium Falcon" after encountering the Imperial Tau ship and the giant squid in the nebula passage are still quite thrilling. Worth a look.
