Muchos años antes de conocer a Luke Skywalker y la Princesa Leia, en una galaxia donde impera el caos y existen numerosas bandas criminales, el joven Han Solo consigue huir del planeta Corellia, pero atrás queda su amada Qi'ra, y Han promete volver a por ella algún día. Tras apuntarse a la Academia Imperial para ser piloto, Han conoce a un wookie llamado Chewbacca y más tarde al famoso jugador Lando Calrissian, dueño del Halcón milenario. En una misión desesperada, Han se unirá a Tobias Beckett para obtener un valioso cargamento de coaxium, del que se extrae el hiperfuel para que las naves naveguen por el hiperespacio.

Oh dear. Something is up when the final 30 minutes of a film are the most entertaining part but you had to suffer the previous 90 minutes first.
Just one endless fight/battle/running away - I got really bored - too many special effects, too dark (why are film makers nowadays constantly trying to save on the lighting bill - for gawds sake turn the lights up!!!).
It was saved by the final 30 mins of actual plot but I won't watch it again. ( )

Young Han Solo does some crimes with a space gang.

1/4 (Bad).

I guess it's less objectively awful than Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. But I'd rather rewatch those than this. They're at least bad in a bold way -- they tried hard, and failed. This movie is just boring and brings nothing to the table, which is so much worse. ( )
