Star Wars Movies, Ranked
Updated in 2020 to add The Rise of Skywalker.
Peerless at the box office, the Star Wars franchise has been drubbed by critics as often as its movies have been praised. Above, take a look back at how the 12 big-screen Star Wars movies to date have fared with critics.
(#7) The second stand-alone Star Wars film of the Disney era, Solo is—for the most part—a caper centering on younger versions of Han Solo (Alden Ehrenreich) and Lando Calrissian (a widely praised Donald Glover). While certainly not in the top tier of Star Wars movies, Solo actually turned out better than fans first feared, given that the film's directors (Phil Lord and Christopher Miller) were fired in the middle of production and replaced by Ron Howard.
“Audiences should feel free to lower their guard — to adjust expectations into B-movie territory. And as a B-movie, Solo delivers, sometimes in a way that reminds a viewer of this franchise’s roots in classic Saturday matinee adventure serials and sometimes simply as proficient, dutiful, time-passing entertainment.” —Ty Burr, Boston Globe
