I did enjoy watching this film, I think the acting was good and the cinematography was good... it was a decent, pop-corn on your seat movie.
For the Star Wars nerds out there, it's unsatisfying and vapid. Why did Han and Lando become friends? I would assume they have more adventures together besides this. They don't seem that close at the end of the film. Solo's love interest is lacking nearly everything as well... big mystery that she's a slave of the primary antagonist. There is nothing to be discovered in this movie... we still don't even know why 12 parsecs because it's all just explained with a cavalier shallowness and ambiguity. These characters are very two dimensional, you're not really in love with them the way you were in Star Wars IV and it's not because of who is playing the characters.
