This is perfectly adequate. Fine acting (not really Emilia Clarke’s best performance), fine characters (the droid’s annoying as shit though), fine story (if a little predictable in the third act), fine music, fine comedy and dialogue, it serves perfectly fine as a set up for Han’s character in A New Hope, it’s all fine. The visuals are a bit … much, it almost looks like black and white photography at times, but there are also times where it looks fantastic. Still, I don’t get why this easy going and light Star Wars film is presented as if its Lord of the Rings. The set pieces are very well executed, I love the train heist and Kessel Run in particular, which in the end makes it a mild recommendation.
