When it was first announced that they were making a Han Solo origin story, it was clear from the get-go that many fans were hesitant about what would happen to the beloved character. Add in a turbulent production schedule including directors departing right before principal photography was completed, many were wary about the final outcome of the film and whether or not it would be able to tell the epic beginning story that Solo truly deserves. Well, if the early reactions of the film are anything to go by, fans all over can breathe a little easy in knowing that Solo: A Star Wars Story is going to deliver and it’s going to be good.
Lucasfilm held the world premiere for Solo: A Star Wars Story in Los Angeles and some lucky members of the press were able to view the movie for the first time alongside the cast and crew and subsequently released their SPOILER-FREE reactions online:
I figured if @DisneyStudios was willing to show 'Solo: A Star Wars Story' a few weeks before release it must be good and it absolutely is. Film is a blast and a welcome addition to the Star Wars universe. @RealRonHoward you did a great job. Congrats. pic.twitter.com/1pkWH2y6qE

#SoloAStarWarsStory is reaaaaalllly good. Fun as hell. It’s a straight intergalactic heist movie, kind of refreshing to see a Star Wars movie w/o a Death Star or the rebellion’s fate at stake. Alden Ehrenreich is super impressive as Han, but L3 might be my favorite new character.
