    New Video Review of Solo: A Star Wars Story

    Our latest CatSynth TV episode features a review of the latest offering in the Star Wars franchise, Solo: A Star Wars Story.

    The video has some spoilers in it, so we advise waiting to watch it until you have seen the movie.  For now, here are some non-spoiler takeaways:

    • The movie continues to fill in the storyline between Episode III and Episode IV, along with the Rebels TV series and Rogue One.
    • Donald Glover is great as Lando Calressian!
    • Star Wars does a good job with its gangsters and bar and club scenes, going all the way back to the Mos Eisley cantina.  There is no shortage of such scenes in this movie.
    • It’s a smaller scale story than the main movies or even Rogue One.  And force-wielders are less prominent than in any other movie or series.
    • Sadly, no cats.

    We do recommend it for Star Wars nerds like us, as well as casual viewers. 😺
