I received this movie for my review. All opinions are my own.
As you probably already know, I was so fortunate to attend the SOLO: A Star Wars Story press junket and red carpet movie premiere. I had an incredible time and highly recommend you check out my links at the bottom of this post with all of my interviews.

I loved the movie so very much. It is packed with action and was IMO the most fun Star Wars movie to date. I loved learning more about Han Solo and his origin story. Read my full SOLO A Star Wars Story movie review. So I couldn’t wait to receive SOLO and watch it again at home. It is just as good the second time, if not better. I loved it again! So much fun and I am super happy to have this in my Disney Movies Anywhere so we can watch it anytime.
