Solo is the scruffy looking smuggler’s tale I hoped for when I entered the theater. The story is entertaining. The cast is solid from top to bottom, and the star did as well as anyone could’ve asked filling the shoes of an icon. I’ll admit, after the stink bomb that was The Last Jedi, I…

I also give my thoughts on tonight’s Florida State spring football game, and what…
