SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY SPOILERS - 7 Things That Worked And 3 Things That Didn't

Solo: A Star Wars Story is Star Wars at its finest but while some things worked perfectly, there were a few things which didn't quite click. Hit the jump for a look at what worked and what disappointed...

Filed Under: Star Wars

After Star Wars: The Last Jedi divided the fanbase, Lucasfilm needs Solo: A Star Wars Story to resonate with fans and not disappoint. The critical response to the movie has been mostly positive and early box office projections are good, so chances are it will be a hit but what about the spinoff works and in what ways does it ultimately disappoint? Well, that's what we're going to take an in-depth look at here.

Needless to say, major spoilers follow from this point on but even if you haven't checked the movie out yet, you may want to take a look at these points so you can prepare yourselves for what's coming.

Solo may have been besieged by behind the scenes issues following the firing of Phil Lord and Chris Miller but Ron Howard has steered this character's origin story in the best direction and there's a lot here which sets the stage for what's come next so click on the "View List" button for our breakdown.

Did Work: Alden Ehrenreich As Han Solo

I'd only seen Alden Ehrenreich in Hail, Caesar! before Solo: A Star Wars Story and while he delivered a fine performance there, nothing about him screamed "Han Solo" to me. In fact, I couldn't really picture anyone other than Harrison Ford in the role but what the actor does here is nothing short of fantastic and he both homages his predecessor's performance while also delivering his own, unique spin.

That's the best possible thing to do when taking on a part made famous (well, iconic) by someone else and there's just enough Harrison in Alden's performance to make Han feel familiar while also delivering some new traits which ensure what he's doing doesn't feel like little more than a poor imitation.

Didn't Work: An Opening Crawl That Isn't An Opening Crawl

Rogue One made it clear that these spinoff movies won't be utilising the opening crawl made famous by the core saga but then Solo goes and puts three paragraphs of text on screen and after that, this adventure for the smuggler might as well have had one! Don't get me wrong, this really isn't a big deal but it's a distracting way to kick things off and an argument could be made that it wasn't needed.

On the other hand, kicking this movie off with an opening crawl definitely would have been a little weird but here's hoping Lucasfilm finds a less clunky way to handle exposition moving forward.

Did Work: How Han Became Han Solo

I've seen some critics complain that while Solo spends plenty of time exploring how Han got his name, gun, and ship, it fails to explain how he became the character we meet in A New Hope. That's utter nonsense as he clearly has a character arc here and things play out in a way that makes it clear why he becomes so jaded and struggles to trust anyone following this action-packed adventure with Chewie.

While it's true that he's not the Han who shoots down Greedo by the time the credits roll, that's clearly because we've yet to see him spend years going through all sorts of misadventures as a smuggler and his feelings towards the Rebellion and Empire make much more sense after he got to see things from the frontline and realised that nothing either side is doing is going to get him where he wants to be.

Did Work: That Mind-Blowing Cameo

I don't think any of us ever saw this coming. As Qi'ra reaches out to the mysterious leader of the Crimson Dawn, we see a holographic figure wearing a cloak who I initially assumed was the Empire. After all, it would make sense for him to use criminals like Dryden Vos to do his bidding but the reality is that it's Darth Maul who secretly controls this group and seeing him here is mind-blowing!

He's clearly a bit older and has robotic legs (which ties into his animated appearances) but this is definitely Darth Maul and I have to give Lucasfilm some serious credit for this unexpected surprise. With any luck, the studio has a plan for how best to use him from here regardless of whether that's in a Solo sequel, the Boba Fett movie, or Obi-Wan Kenobi's long overdue spinoff. Time will tell, I guess.

Didn't Work: The Betrayals

While Qi'ra and Tobias Beckett betrayals came as something of a surprise to me, they're not actually that hard to see coming if you stop and think about it. Killing both of them off would have been too Rogue One-ish and something had to happen to make Han the jaded smuggler we met in 1977.

Keeping Qi'ra alive is a curious decision and her story arc will have to play out somewhere because it won't make any sense otherwise. After all, she's clearly loyal to Darth Maul and it sounds like he may want revenge on Han for what happened to Dryden. Either way, this isn't a particularly big complaint.

Did Work: Han, Meet Chewie

Chewbacca's first scene is nothing short of perfect as we learn that he's the "beast" the Empire is keeping chained up to feed deserters to. Covered in mud and clearly angry about being locked up and treated like an animal, Chewie quickly takes aim at Han but is surprised to learn that this young soldier speaks some Wookie and a plan is quickly formed for these unlikely allies to make their escape.

From their, friendship blossoms and it's easy to see why and how these two become partners. They're both orphans in their own way and need someone by their side and that's what they find in each other.

Did Work: Ron Howard: Saviour

Near the start of the movie, there's a couple of scenes with Han which feel like they might have been improvised. In fact, they feel very Lord and Miller-ish but if that's what this whole spinoff would have ended up like, thank God they were fired. A Jump Street approach to this franchise really would not have worked and so we should all be grateful to Ron Howard coming in and saving the day.

As I stated in my review, the filmmaker has delivered a superb movie which feels like classic Star Wars and I for one would love to see him return to the franchise somewhere down the line. After all, if he could do work this great after all that behind the scenes chaos, just imagine what he'd deliver with a decent amount of prep time. Move over Han because Ron is actually the true hero in this film.

Didn't Work: Wasted Characters

Whenever these spinoffs feature characters we've not seen in the main trilogy, we should probably accept there's a very good chance they'll die to explain why they don't show up there. Despite that, it was still ridiculous for Thandie Newton's Val to be killed off in such short order and that was a real waste.

The same could arguably be said in regards to what happens to L3-37. Her goodbye may be extremely emotional but when the door is so clearly open to spinoffs, simply making her part of the Millennium Falcon isn't quite the same and there's surely more that could be done with her. Alas, it is what is it.

Did Work: Donald Glover's Lando Calrissian

Heading into Solo: A Star Wars Story, I'd heard a lot of good things about Donald Glover's Lando Calrissian but wasn't sure what to make of him when he showed up on screen for the first time. Initially, it felt like he was simply impersonating Billy Dee Williams but as the movie unfolded, I think it's fair to say that not only does he steal the show but he's actually the better Lando of the two (really).

Learning more about his and Han's past not only explains a lot about the character but it also makes it clear why he betrayed his so-called friend to the Empire all those years after this adventure. While I don't think his own spinoff movie is necessary, it would definitely be good to see Glover return.

Did Work: Sequel Set Up

Surprisingly, Solo sets the stage for a sequel in a lot of ways and none of them feel forced. There's nothing to say we'll ever get a follow-up, of course, but Qi'ra's story remains pretty open-ended and seeing Han embark on the mission which sees him ditch Jabba's loot would be a great deal of fun.

Ultimately, I guess this boils down to whether or not the movie is a box office hit but it would actually be a shame for this to be a one-off and there's really no reason why Disney and Lucasfilm couldn't start releasing more than one Star Wars film a year the same way Marvel does with its own MCU-set tales.

I though most of the first half didn’t work including Alden as Han. Giving him the Solo name was cringe worthy to me but pretty much every after the meet Drieden worked for me and just got better from then on.

RocknRolla - 5/25/2018, 7:24 AM

@Ha1frican - interesting because I thought the way he got the solo name was kind of cool

RocknRolla - 5/25/2018, 7:24 AM

I think I mostly agree with this I think the characters that died off in the movie should have been there more

Nightwing1015 - 5/25/2018, 7:29 AM

I thought that the idea his real name was never Han Solo was just stupid. All this time and it was made up by a random Imperial officer. But maybe that's just me.

DukeSimian - 5/25/2018, 8:15 AM

@Nightwing1015 - I thought it was weird that he could remember his father and the time he spent with him, but somehow didn't know his name? Maybe I misunderstood that scene with the Imperial officer but I thought the implication was he had no, or didn't know his family.

DirkLargepeck - 5/25/2018, 9:43 AM

@Nightwing1015 - It's not just you...

OmegaDaGrodd - 5/25/2018, 7:34 AM

The amount of love I've seen for Alden as Han has been surprising.

IronMandarin - 5/25/2018, 7:40 AM

Here's a list of 20 things that didn't work about Solo.

1. Opening credits
2. Centipenus
3. Han getting his name because some guy gave it to him
4. Han attempting to act like he's tough shit in front of the centipenus
5. Han attempting to act like he's tough shit in front of Woody Harrelson
6. The fact that Woody Harrelson just throws him his blaster and that's the weapon he's been carrying his entire life
7. Fish head in a jar singing backup vocals
8. Paul Bettany's face lighting up whenever he gets mad.
9. The fact that the movie has Rogue Ones aesthetic and the entire movie looks so colorless and washed out
10. Humans and droids can have sex. I did not need to know that.
11. Han saying "We've already got the pilot" followed by awkward smile.
12. Woody Harrelson's friends die before you get a chance to learn anything about them.
13. Han pretending that he knew how they wouldn't send Tai Fighters after the Falcon
14. The fact that the movie kept showing Lando's hand with the spare card as if the audience were too dumb to remember that's how he cheated
15. Paul Bettany got betrayed twice by Emilia Clark and died pathetically (But still better than Snoke)
16. Han trying to bullshit his way out of fighting Enfys Nest
17. Ending battle was anticlimactic. The asteroid chase with the Monster was more intense.
18. Emilia Clark and Darth Maul. Is that ever going to be resolved?
19. Nobody saw the Kessel Run except for the people on board the Falcon, yet somehow Rey has heard about it in the Force Awakens like it was a famous event.
20. Screenwriting 101. What does your character want? Han wants Emilia Clark back, but halfway through the film he gets her back anyway.

MarkCassidy - 5/25/2018, 8:03 AM

@IronMandarin - Some of these are legit gripes, but most are some of the most pedantic nitpicks I've seen on this site.. and that's saying something.

Timerider84 - 5/25/2018, 8:13 AM

@IronMandarin - Yes, he got Qi'Ra back, but what the character wanted was to pay off the debt he owed, because it was kinda his fault, he felt guilty and wanted to make amends to Beckett, because Beckett gave Han and Chewie a chance and he saved him by picking him up, instead of leaving him and Chewie there.

IronMandarin - 5/25/2018, 8:25 AM

@RorMachine - Fair. Some of these are just nitpicks that annoyed myself and my mates personally and you can probably tell which are meant to be legit criticisms and which are just meant to be me saying things I thought were stupid, but I have seen greater films than this get nitpicked to death for far less.

MarkCassidy - 5/25/2018, 8:38 AM

@IronMandarin - Actually, after another read through, here's the only thing I agree didn't work:

The Centipenis:)

LSHF - 5/25/2018, 11:03 AM

@IronMandarin - "14. The fact that the movie kept showing Lando's hand with the spare card as if the audience were too dumb to remember that's how he cheated"

This movie is made for children, also. It has nothing to do with a "dumb audience".

MarkCassidy - 5/25/2018, 11:38 AM

@Elle79 - OR, I thought it was very good, and you didn't.... see how that works? It's called an opinion.

CyberBishop - 5/25/2018, 11:47 AM

@RorMachine - Bingo!

Franshu - 5/25/2018, 12:33 PM

@IronMandarin - "20. Screenwriting 101. What does your character want? Han wants Emilia Clark back, but halfway through the film he gets her back anyway."

For all my gripes with the movie (which I thought was OK, mind you, just not particularly memorable nor exciting), this must be the greatest. What goes on right afetr that is sort of "why is Han even doing all of this?" He could just tell Q'ra 'seeya later' and met at a bar or something, rather than getting in all the trouble that follows

Amuro - 5/25/2018, 7:45 AM

Didn't work: L3-37.

Even worse than Jar-Jar Binks !

MarkV - 5/25/2018, 8:29 AM

@Amuro -

ThunderThighs - 5/25/2018, 7:57 AM

Didn't work:

That shower scene.

Chameleon - 5/25/2018, 8:13 AM

L3 is one of the worst things in Star Wars, everyone in my theatre cheered when she died, what an awful idea for a character

jumpingtheshark - 5/25/2018, 8:29 AM

This movie has no reason to exist. There's heavy fanfare that falls flat because the characters are terrible/unfamiliar. Alden is canned ass as Han. The script was terrible. Even Donald Glover—who is great at almost everything he does—was miserable. His Lando felt more forced than smooth. Apparently **spoiler** ....... he probably bangs robots. It's basically this film's Luke drinking green titty milk.

V > IV > VI > Rogue One > Rebels > Clone Wars > III > VII > II > I > Solo > VIII

Amuro - 5/25/2018, 8:41 AM

@jumpingtheshark -

1) The Empire Strikes Back
2) The Clone Wars (2008)
3) Rogue One
4) A New Hope
5) Rebels
6) Clone Wars (2003)
7) Solo
8) Return of the Jedi
9) Revenge of the Sith
10) The Force Awakens
11) The Last Jedi
12) The Phantom Menace
13) Attack of the Clones
14) Forces of Destiny
15) Holiday Special

jumpingtheshark - 5/25/2018, 9:25 AM

@Amuro - as long as we agree Empire is perfection and TLJ is canned ass.

DirkLargepeck - 5/25/2018, 9:53 AM

@Amuro - Solo BEFORE Return of the Jedi?? Holy hell.

LSHF - 5/25/2018, 11:06 AM

@jumpingtheshark - None of the films have a reason to exist, except for entertainment value and money. That is what the original was created for and also the rest of them. George wanted to make a film that would entertain and make him some money. Entertainment and money is the reason they exists.

jumpingtheshark - 5/25/2018, 1:39 PM

@LSHF it's more about having a story to tell. They didn't really. But sure lets talk about it from a completely obvious standpoint.

jumpingtheshark - 5/25/2018, 1:40 PM

@DirkLargepeck Episode VIII is the only movie I walked out of angry. With Solo you kind of knew it was coming.

Elle79 - 5/25/2018, 9:06 AM

Donald Glover is the better Lando? You have to be high or insane to think that.

Glover was fine as Lando, but stop overpraising just because he is the flavor of the month at the moment. Man, groupthink is an unbelievable thing

LSHF - 5/25/2018, 11:11 AM

@Elle79 - Once again I show up to read some comment about a film but I keep seeing a bunch of people insulting each other. And you don't know "why" that comment was made. You don't know if it is because he is the "flavor of the month". People liked his performances before he did this film, so it is logical that people would like his performance in this film.

Man, mind-reading is an unbelievable thing.
