Film Reviews by MD

Ignore the critics. You can definitely view this as part of the whole Star Wars universe or a "solo" space cowboy adventure.

You don't need to know all the Star Wars films, or the history of the Star Wars universe to enjoy this but on occasions it helps. There are plenty of references to people and places mentioned throughout the Star Wars films.

The film does seem a bit disjointed at times but there's a lot of adventure and action so you can easily get past that.

The film did leave me feeling that I wanted a second part though. The revelation that Vos' superior was Darth Maul comes as a nice surprise, ut as soon as it's revealed it is abandoned. If this was revealed nearer the start of the film, or if hints were left, the film would feel more "complete".

This is an enjoyable film none the less.
