Strange that the only new release this week is about a guy named Solo, isn’t it?<\/p>\nStrange that the only new release this week is about a guy named Solo, isn’t it?<\/p>\n
So, this is to say that this film was behind the 8-ball from the get go–delivering a new take on the iconic character in a film with another actor taking over for Ford. It did not need a mid-filming directorial change to make the film a risky venture, it already was one.<\/p>\n But a mid-filming directorial change it got, which sent the naysayers a-squawking. Will it be a good film? Maybe. Will it be a good enough film to overcome all the negative energy surrounding it? Probably not.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/New-Releases-Solo-poster-229x339.jpg\")
1. Solo: A Star Wars Story (Disney, 4,381 Theaters, 135 Minutes,\u00a0Rated PG-13 for sequences of sci-fi action\/violence, Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer at press time: 69% Fresh<\/a> [228 Reviews]): <\/strong>Han Solo is arguably the best character in the\u00a0Star Wars\u00a0<\/strong>universe. He definitely has one of the best character arcs in the franchise and people love him. And a lot of that love comes as a result of the performance of Harrison Ford. There is a razor thin line between “Charming Rogue” and “Obnoxious Despicable Rogue” and Ford made sure that the character stayed on the right side of that line.<\/p>\n
