I went to a special screening 1 day before the release, the movie was almost empty which is why I am not surprised about some reviews here who clearly haven't seen the movie. I too had my doubts that they would be able to make such an iconic character work with a different actor. I was afraid that the cast was too distracting from the story. It was a great movie that turned out to be in no way as chronical that most people were afraid of. Ron Howard did a great job by telling a story for non Star Wars Freaks and engage all the nerds and freaks who are very familiar with the lore and the Clone Wars Series and Rebels Series by dropping Easter eggs all over the place.
Han Solo was always the character for comical relief therefore it is a funny movie with great action scenes, amazing animatronics and a decent story.
If real Star Wars fans can't appreciate the first meeting of future allies in the original movies what does make them happy?
