It's actually deeply funny to see the Reva plotline turn into exactly the kind of "edgy, complicated dark jedi" plotline the manchildren who were mad at her for being Black While Star Warsing would have loved otherwise.
Also, killing off Luther's wife is the such a cheap way to make me hate a villain but they KEEP DOING IT.
Finally, just to show off my Star Wars e-peen... Why throw Jabiim in if you're not gonna have it be raining the whole time? The whole point of Jabiim is that it's a muddy storm planet. It's like throwing Tattooine in the script and not having the action occur in a desert.
Maaaaan does Ewan McGregor COMMAND the screen with his presence and performance!!!
An interesting episode from a series that has been hit and miss. The series is really anchored by McGregor. It was nice to see Christensen back (even though people will comment on how he wasn't de-aged well enough). Reva continues to be the worst thing about this show with Ingram either over or under acting. The Vader fight was one of the more interesting things I've seen in Star Wars - feeling like a true martial arts fight, where the stronger of the two doesn't strike but uses their opponents flow against them. I don't know if that suits Vader though.
“OBI-WAN: PART V”: A COMMENTARY
:heart:95% :thumbsup:21 :thumbsdown:1 = Masterpiece!
The penultimate episode of the series feels like a great mix of emotional development, proper Star Wars action and narrative beats that set up what is surely going to be an epic finale!
We finally get a good grasp of Hayden Christensen's return to the role that made him famous - and he seems to slip back into the padawan-era Anakin with relative ease, without walking down the annoying brat route he was maligned for in Attack of the Clones.
I'm happy to see Kumal Nanjiani back in the fold, as he brings some light comic relief into these ever-darkening times.
Moses Ingram is great yet again and taps into Reeva's trauma and past experiences in her performance. I'm happy this episode handles her experiences surviving Order 66 and witnessing Anakin's slaughter - and how she transfers those negative feelings onto Ben. I particularly like her conversations with Ben and how Ben brings out something of a manipulative side to try to win Reeva over.
I do wish Tala had made it out of the episode, as I feel she was just becoming a great character before she was killed.
This show continues to grow in intensity thanks to the Empire's ever-growing presence and the growing unease between Ben and Vader. The attack on the base that we see here feels a bit like the rebel base attacks seen in the original trilogy, such as the Hoth base attack, but his one has more finesse in it through the character interactions. The ensuing battle is truly intense and shows the overwhelming strength of the young Empire at this point. Vader's angry fit as he pulls the spaceship back down and rips it apart is epic! And the battle between him and Reeva is even more epic! WHAT IS THIS SHOW DOING TO ME, AAAAHHH!!
Only minor wrinkles around Hayden Christensen's eyes in the opening scene tell us that this look back (to somewhere around Attack of the Clones) has been shot now and not twenty years ago! It's an incredibly made scene, and we return to it a couple of times.
Overall,
this episode alone is probably the greatest Star Wars we've had since Disney bought the package!
That was legit a way better episode then it had any right to be.
Bail leaving a message for Kenobi in where he mentions Tatooine and 'the boy' gotta be one of the dumbest and laziest things I've ever seen in Star Wars (and the bar is not that high). Some of the writings decisions in this series truly are baffling.
Seems like Star Wars writers since The Clone Wars Series watched too many shônen anime ...
Yeah it might be logical for Vader to be more powerful than Rey or Ahsoka but why the fuck is using the force becoming more and more ridiculous and powerful with every new instance that comes to the screens?? Vaders abilities in Rogue One where awesome and even they are hardly compatible with whatever he did in Episodes 4 to 6. But based on how he is able to use the force here, the bejaviour in the old movies just doesn't make sense anymore.
Why do people feel the need to up the ante every fucking time?!
The Plot Armour is strong with this one
Seeing savage Vader continues to be one of the best parts of the show, which is why this episode was probably the best one so far. Really liked the flash back training session between Obi-Wan and Anakin being a direct parallel to the story throughout this episode. There were some minor things that bothered me, like why didn't Vader just stop the other ship as it was taking off? This reflects how some of the writing has been kind of lazy throughout the show. Reva's twist was good but I saw it coming as I think a lot of people did, so it was a little underwhelming. But the fight at the end was awesome.
Not going to lie, this was better than the previous episode. I still just want to make it through the end. And for a show I had high hopes for, that's a statement of disappointment.
The flashback with Obi-Wan and Anakin was really good but should have been in the movie in the first place. It would have explained more back than as it did today. Seeing Vader stomp through the hallways and holding of the transport was another great sequenz. Overall it's still nowhere near what could have been. Because of the writing...
When the Stormtroopers land and take position in front of the door, that's about as un-military as you can get. Line up for an enemy to maw you down. Is this overconfidence or stupidity ? If Reva could have just slice open the door with her Lightsaber than why not do so in the first place ? And when the door does open, Stormtroopers are dropping like flies and I counted three (!!!) "rebels" being killed, including Tala. And Reva stands just behind in the background. The revelation of her story was anything but a surprise, but it's another reminder that this show has the wrong title. And how many other force sensitive people did she kill or helped being killed to get back at Vader ? To avenge what he has done as Anakin ? Killing what was in your words your family for revenge ? Yeah, that totally makes her one of the good guys instantly. (Attention sarcasm)
But here is one thing I really have a beef with and it hasn't even directly to do with the story or show itself:
Why is Qui-Gon dead ?
He got punched in the gut by Maul's saber once. So did the Grand Inquisitor, and so did Reva. Apperently twice !!! And both are alive.
Right now, even another fight between Vader and Kenobi, which would at this point nake no sense, can't save this show.
Loved this episode!
They finally explained Reva's character and it finally makes sense. Now that her future is uncertain, this is where the fun begins! That scene where Vader was just toying with Reva was awesome!
But I have one slight complaint about this episode: Seriously, is it just me or Anakin in the flashbacks seems a bit too old?
OMG!!! This episode is something else!! Can't wait for the season finale!!!!
Aren't lightsabers supposed to be these super rare weapons? Yet, this bunch of rag-tag farmers have a whole case just laying about?
The plot points of this entire show are soooo simplistic, it's embarrassing: A door needs to be opened? Meh, let's just have it open and shut by itself, no need to explain. The little robot has been hacked? Meh, just pull a little magnet off it and it's back to normal. The little robot destroyed the main hatch controls, oh and what's that, it'll take you 4-5h to fix? Meh, just send in the 10 year-old actual princess with a Philip's screwdriver, she'll get it done in under 20min. Vader can pull ships right out of the sky and tear them apart like paper? Meh, just hide another massive 20-ton ship behind the first one, and pretend this one can take-off faster than the first, so it can safely get away .
Barely an inconvenience.
Garbage writing. This whole episode does not make any sense.
Hahahaha... How on earth are they shooting face to face in the cave and they are still missing??
Who writes this garbage, my god.
God damn, some of these writing decisions man…
Okay, so the action is still pretty bad, and the Reva stuff is every bit as predictable as it seemed. BUT I'm glad we're FINALLY getting some of the stuff that we were promised! The flashbacks with Anakin, although not perfect, are what I wanted from this show. I just wish that they had started with these much sooner, rather than the second-to-last episode of the show.
Also, I know the Reva wasn't exactly on Vader's side, but her sending Obi-Wan inside with two stormtroopers when it would have made much more sense for her to just keep him outside exactly where he was with the rest of the troops and her... that was one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.
IDK how this show manages to keep doing it, but every episode just seems to have dumber and dumber writing decisions and it's truly painful to watch. Vader is being written as a total moron. Why on earth would they just leave Reva alive like that? It makes absolutely no sense.
I've said it almost every episode, but it still rings true - I really want to love this show, but I just CAN'T. I'll give this one a 5.5 simply because it was a fun watch despite all the horrible issues.
The whole third sister story arc makes no sense at all. I'm upset because vader killed the only family I had. I know, ill just join his ranks and kill more jedi and innocent people until i can get close to him and ignore the only other person that could help me get revenge! like WTF
200 stormtroopers shooting point blank and not hitting any of the 6 untrained people inside the bunker? Stupid and lazy as any recent star wars crap.
I agree with everyone commenting in the inconsistences on this episode. To me a minor thing but Star Wars in very inconsistence with ages, Reva is in her late 20s, Kenobi is his 50s so the events of the temple were decades ago but Luke and Leia are pretty small children like I said a minor thing but bothers me. And how about Vader holding a ship but then couldn't hold the other one, or in his fight with Reva with that strength he could have tear her apart limb by limb, so many details.
The writing is atrocious another missed opportunity for Disney.
I just wanna post this from Geosage on reddit:
Imagine if each episode of Obi Wan contained flashbacks of him teaching different lessons to Anakin, and then showing how each one applied to each different episode...
Tell a story taking place now, yet also fleshing out some moments between them... ya know, really flesh out the relationship between the two of them...
But then there wouldn't be room for Reva.
It was a nice episode, great flashbacks between Obi-Wan and Anakin. These were scenes I wanted to see in the prequels: nice confrontations between a master and an apprentice.
The action is nice but the shaky camera is unbearable, I always liked Star Wars for its clean scenes.
It was strange to see Obi-Wan go instead of helping the third sister, a confrontation between the three of them would have been nice, I felt he abandoned her, to her eyes, a second time after order 66.
I know we will probably see Kenobi and Vader fighting alone again.
[7.1/10] I’m torn on this episode. It has some truly compelling ideas and set pieces at play on the one hand, and some baffling story choices and clunky sequences on the other. I’m not sure how it all comes in the wash.
So let’s start with the good stuff. The reveal that Reva is not, in fact, just an ambitious Inquisitor trying to rise to the top for the sake of personal success, but rather trying to get close to Vader to pay him back for slaughtering her fellow younglings, is a superb one. Her history with Anakin not only explains (sort of) how she knows his secret, but deepens her motivation and gives her common ground with Anakin. It’s the sort of layer the character’s been missing to this point, and the reveal makes “Part V” her best episode.
My only complaint is why did they have to wait to reveal this until now? Modern television shows, genre shows in particular, are near-obsessed with major twists and reveals. It’s all well and good to surprise the audience, but as with Reva, when you have to play the characters’ motivations so close to the vest, it flattens them until we see those hidden depths and complications. They could easily have revealed this in “Part III” and had the intrigue of Reva playing her own game that would have made her close calls with both Kenobi and Vader more interesting.
The interactions between Kenobi and Vader themselves are more interesting here, though. I’ll admit, it’s neat to see the two characters in their Episode II guises. The fact that we’ve entered an era of Prequel nostalgia is a little odd for someone my age, and yet, I’d be lying if it didn’t spark something to see McGregor and Christensen stepping into those roles and that time again.
The way that their sparring match in the past matches their broader tactics in the present is a touch on the nose given the editing, but still counts as clever. Anakin’s over-aggressiveness and need to win, matched with Obi-Wan’s famed willingness to find “alternatives to fighting” and deft bits of trickery to win the day plays out in both their saber duel and their chess match on Jabiim. Vader’s brute force attacks, paralleled with Obi-Wan using a decoy ship and siccing Reva on Anakin to secure an escape helps show that, however much has changed since those days, Anakin and his former master are still, deep down, the same people they were all those years ago.
Plus, once more, Darth Vader is a terrifying badass. Him almost casually pulling a spaceship back into dock is some near-Force Unleashed stuff. At the same time, the way he just toys with Reva when she attacks him displays the full force of his power. There’s no wasted movement from him, no grand efforts necessary to defeat her. It’s a fighting style vaguely in line with his battles in the Original Trilogy, but in a calm, steady way that contrasts with Reva’s overmatched fury. It’s the best fight in the show so far, one that's compelling despite, and in some ways because, of the ways in which the outcome is never much in doubt.
But man, some of the story choices are weak. So Vader and The Grand Inquisitor knew Reva was planning to betray them all along? To what end? Why did they allow this to go forward. If you want to read between the lines, you could suggest maybe they thought/foresaw that she would lead them to Obi-Wan, but neither of them ever seems to hint at that possibility in prior episodes, making this yet another important detail toward character motivation that's either hidden or just spackled on here, without the creative team letting it inform the characters’ choices in the moment. At worst, it just flat out doesn’t make sense, with it seeming as though both Anakin and The Grand Inquisitor would make different choices along the way if they had this information.
I also haaaaate that they don’t just kill her on Jabiim. You can rationalize it that they don’t just want to end her life; they want to make her suffer for treachery. But come on. How many times in Star Wars have we seen characters conspicuously left for dead without being firmly offed only for them to conveniently come back later in the narrative. The trope is incredibly hacky, and I’m tired of supposedly brutal villains doing stupid crap like this that will conveniently backfire in some way rather than finishing the job. Anything Reva does after the duel will inevitably play as unearned because it rests on Vader and The Grand Inquisitor both being stupid and not eliminating a clear threat.
I also just don’t care about Tala. The episode does its best here, showing “important” clips from prior episodes in the “Previously On” and giving her an awkward and writerly monologue about why she does this before the big battle goes down. But she’s barely been a character up to this point. She’s more of a backstory delivery mechanism and walking plot-advancer than a three-dimensional player. Honestly, I got more emotion out of the loader droid trying to shield her than anything involving her death and sacrifice.
What’s more, Leia helping to save the day, safely away from the fighting with the other refugees, in a space where only a child can go, scans as awfully convenient. There’s still some of the spunkiness in the kid, which helps, and getting Kumail Nanjiani back is a treat, but you can tell the show wasn’t one hundred percent sure what to do with her and them during all this.
On a less significant level, it’s not clear why the Imperials would pause to “talk” with Obi-Wan, or how, even fronted by a Jedi, the proto-rebels could withstand the stormtroopers in this outmanned and outgunned assault The mechanics of the stand-off don’t make sense, which isn’t the biggest sins given the usual conceits of Star Wars, but took me out of the moment since they didn’t even make intuitive sense.
Therein lies the yin and yang of “Part V”. So many of the practicalities of this skirmish don’t add up. The major death is a dud. And the villains’ choices don’t make much sense. But Vader is once again the imposing monster he should be. The connection between he and Kenobi’s past and present is commendable. And the reveal of the common ground between Obi-Wan and Reva, replete with a piercing guilt trip about how Kenobi wasn’t able to protect her, are all strong beats. The frustrating things about back half of this show is how the promising ideas and story points are surrounded by elements that weaken them, as the clear potential at play leads to excitement mingled with disappointment.
I get that sometimes characters in a story need to make illogical decisions so the plot can move forward, but that needs to be balanced with some characters making logical decisions. Not a thing that happened this episode made sense.
And why are the rebels all a bunch of helpless women and wimpy men? How are they a threat to the empire? If you have a grenade, why not throw it at the bad guys? Why can no one in this universe fire a weapon from cover? Why exactly are so many people gathered together in a big empty building? Why did no one this episode care about precious Wade? Why did they even go this this place instead of going directly to Alderon? If you want to kill Darth Vader and have been around him for years, just poison his food. I'm assuming he has to occasionally eat.
I'm at the point now where I miss the writing of Boba Fett and his teenage vespa street gang.
The real Vader would have finished her off and made sure she was dead... Disappointing.
flashbacks with Anakin were the best part
It's not totally bad. I like the emotional aspects of this episode. It's a bit too much Hollywood for my taste but it's okay-ish. I like the depiction of the relations between Vader, the Sister and Obi-Wan. You understand their character. I like the fact that Vader had a well devised plan after all. Ultimately it failed because the rebels escaped but it was a good plan to toy with her nonetheless.
It's all good and fine until the fighting starts. Presumably they have thousands of troops aboard the imperial ship and they send this this sad bunch of guys? That's underwhelming indeed. They shoot, but don't aim. They fire from 60 feet away but they don't hit. It's like the writers want to feed the countless memes about stupid imperial soldiers. Initially they don't even use the sword to breach the door - although that seemed to be the easiest option. They only send 100 or so warriors. Is that all they got? Why not send 1000? Why don't they place canons atop the shelter in order to block the only exit? That's not how "surrounding" and "traps" work. And Disney can't stop being Disney: they feature that adorable kid instead of blood or mutilations. Is streaming turning into TV? I thought, that's why we had streaming: Produce edgy material and show the innocuous family stuff on TV.
Ok the show is still boring but I liked that we got to see Vader's monstrous powers in this episode
He was a total BADASS
I'm watching this only to find out what new silly things the showrunners invent. Apparently the pre-Hogwarths aged princess Leia is the most intelligent person around and has some hidden hacking talents which come in handy. Obi wears the same pained expression the entire show, but apparently the inquisitor girl is even stupider than he is, since after he surrenders to her she just lets him go back to the shelter from where he escapes. I know little about Star Wars but maybe I would have written a better fanfic had they hired me.
Complaint I just read online, passing it off as my own.
It's so disheartening to see how much the Star Wars fandom has never changed. I thought we got passed this 20 years ago, but I guess the newbies need feel acceptance by repeating what everyone else says.
This is the best Stars Wars material in a long time.
The chapters that people said were the best, for us, the worst, it makes no sense what anyone does. Example being pierced by a lightsaber and you don't die, A series disappointment
This episode perfectly represents the series as a whole. A few things done really well. But so many examples of terrible writing and bizarre directing decisions completely overshadow everything.
Overall, there is something to enjoy here. But the idea that it can be so much better is ever present.
The first actually good episode this entire series.
Reva was actually good for once and learning her backstory was nice. She actually show some emotion too, which is nice. I was not a fan of her this whole series but she was actually ok here.
Too bad it took 5 episodes for it to get passable. Overall though this show was a loss and a mess.
Its also nice to see the old Kenobi come back a little bit to his former self.
The flashback framing is the most logical use of Obi/Ani in the whole project. Reva’s whole deal feels unnecessarily complicated but I’m all for the younglings being represented here (and borderline amazed that they didn’t use this as an opportunity to somehow further the backstory of Grogu… amazed but thankful).
The Obi-Wan we know and love is slowly returning, planning, scheming, negotiating - and putting himself between innocents and danger. Especially love the way his relationship with Leia develops. And the way Obi-Wan still knows Anakin/Vader.
The Third Sister's past... well... tragic to be sure... but it's not as though she hasn't perpetrated enough cruelty, let's just think about the scene on Tatooine in episode 1. So my compassion or sympathy's pretty limited here. Of course, Obi-Wan's manipulating her, but at this point, does anyone care? (And let's not forget why we're really watching this show: not to learn about her, who's squashed like a fly by Vader, but to see Obi-Wan confront Vader and his past and grow into the excentric desert hermit we all know and love.)
The less said about Obi-Wan's stupidity to not delete Bail's message (or set the communicator to auto-delete once heard), the better. ;)
I think I'm growing tired of the singular plot element that they recycle for every episode: Obi-Wan runs from the Empire, the Empire finds Obi-Wan, Obi-Wan outmaneuvers them. Rinse and repeat, ad nauseam.
I liked parts of it (the Vader parts, mostly), but the contrived story beats kind of left me wishing they had spent more time in the writer's room.
Stop shaking the bleeping camera!!
Horrible action sequences once again, with 50 Stormtroopers taking turns shooting one at a time, and now with shaky cam! A small space where only a child can fit -- except that once we see it, it's immediately obvious that it could easily hold two or more adults. Someone left alive who should've been killed. And on and on. I don't know what Disney's priorities are at this point, but Obi-Wan is clearly not one of them.
Man those troopers cant shoot for shit lol they killed one person by the time they were face to face with the people.
Using the force while fighting is such a bitch move. What you couldn’t fight her fare? Of course not he’s the biggest p:pound_symbol:$$¥ in the whole galaxy
Hope the inquisitor joins the rebels
Amazing episode, I almost cried, I did not see that coming
I want to be like General Kenobi, He's always got a way out
Another worst episode from Deborah Chow, let's see how much worse we will get next week's finale.
Can't even see and focus properly on my screen while the Stormtroopers shooting blasters at the rebel's hideout since the EFX spark was too much and it hurt my eyes at a certain point in the shootout. And why does this Disney hire these screenwriters? They let little Leia fix the broken gate and how does this little child know mechanic stuff? (Great, we now have an engineer Leia.) And why does Obi-Wan calmly agree to let the child fix and be away with her, when the reason why he's not on Tatooine looking out for Luke is that Leia got abducted from her guardians.
And also thanks for the little fanservice you give about Anakin and Obi-Wan lightsaber scene. The Vader holding back the aircraft was also cool to watch. Still, the episode is garbage!
And I like that little twist about the third sister trying to get revenge on Vader.
I think this is a good (borderline great) episode in a series with a very bad plotline. The best I can give it is a 7/10 due to the direction Disney decided to take this show and characters in the series.
I'm really struggling to see past the poor writing with this show. Storm Troopers being bad a shooting just went to an entirely new level - About 50 Stormtroopers directly facing about 20 'Good Guys', both without any cover and somehow only about 4 people get hit.
There were even moments where you could see Troopers in amongst the Rebels and still not hitting people, not sure if this was just bad editing or not.
I understand that writing a story when we know certain characters need to live is difficult but then why would you make the idea of Reva killing Darth Vader a main point when we know it won't happen?
I will say this though - They made Darth Vader look bad ass when he pulled that ship out of the sky, tore it apart and then easily defeated Reva.
Overall though I'm not sure I'll be watching any more of the new Star Wars shows unless I hear about something amazing because the recent films, Boba Fett and now Kenobi have just been plain awful.
A lot of good stuff here but also a few unlogical things. Still I loved the flashback scenes and how much screentime Vader got in this episode. Really sad to see Tala getting killed off. I really liked her character. But at least her death scene was done quite well. The ending offered a nice twist but in general I‘d say the storyline was easily predictable.
i wanted to like this more but the logic in progressing the story through this episode was lacking. the effort to open the front gate using a giant gun when a quick saber would suffice... the third sister's quick turn around... continuing saga of bad shooting by the stormtroopers... why didn't tala just use that grenade on the stormtroopers... vader's mercy... feel like we're missing something.
cool to see the flashback scene though.
6/10
Fair episode
better than the last few
and arguably the best of
this Show.
Reva yeah whatever
that seems predictable
and anticlimactic I was
definitely hoping for
something more than
Good old fashion revenge.
who cares and if they wanted
me to care then don't make
her such an unlikeable
cruel annoying bitch for
90 percent of the show.
I was way more invested
and cared so much more
for them two
Darksiders from
"Ahsoka" now they
were super interesting
and cool AF.
Once again
The Mandalorian
did this type of
episode so much better,
Once again this episode
had stuff just happening
for the sake of it and
people making decisions
that make absolutely
no sense oh yeah and
Once again the incompetent
bad guys let the good guys
Once again get away,
Including Obi.
In all this was a better
episode to the show but
at this point that's not saying
much.
Right onto
This special event
season finale as they
are calling it.
(wonder what's so special).
6.5/10
Oh dear, that didn't really go that well... :o I'm just relieved that at least Obi-Wan, Leia, and Luke will be fine.
The dark story of the life of The Third Sister is both too unbelievable and too sad/pathetic IMO.
It sucks that Tala died. She's one of the coolest characters of this show.
Anyway, it's getting too out of hand now... :o
I'mm really surprised how good the latest Star Wars shows has been, especially given that they are made by woke Disney. Quite a contrast to the crap that has been produced for the Star Trek franchise lately.
Okay, I don’t expect this too.
Pros
+Anakin training scenes are fitting and fantastic
+Obi Wan urging the betrayal of the Inquisitor fit well with what she's already done and how the Jedi are actually supposed to fight and act. Vader being blinded by his rage/need to win was also a really nice touch, we are reminded why he lost to the master of the high ground. However it made no sense why she would let Obi Wan just walk back into the base.
+I liked Leia's role in this episode, it fit what they are building her into very well.
+Vader showing how strong he is against the Third sister and clowning on her just like Obi Wan clowned on him in the training and awakening her trauma was great. (Although tbh he should've choked her ass out like 3 episodes ago)
Cons
-Tala's confession about killing children that were force sensitive came at a really awkward moment with no lead up or reasoning. This should have been something saved for later, it ended up having a very dull impact. Then they threw her character away in a clumsy way too. I thought her character was one of the few interesting ones, huge waste to throw her away this early
- the thought of Anakin not knowing that the Third sister was faking death while he is literally the one cutting through the children in the Jedi temple is insane and that this leads up to her joining him without any mention of brainwashing or being forced to be a child/slave soldier. Like it would've been so easy to give her a realistic story but they just chose not to. IDK I guess it fits with how big of a fucking idiot she is but come on.
-Tone was inappropriate at times. Star Wars always mixes in the levity with the struggle but they are always during periods of relief, not in the middle of the fight. This one doesn't follow that during many serious sections.
-What is it with the new ones and their dumb ass "sad" droid deaths lmao? it wasn't sad in Solo and it's not sad now. They can literally be rebuilt whenever and even if it was fucking R2-D2 or C3P0 who the audience actually knows well it still wouldn't be sad.
I know this comes off as kind of negative but the negatives were more mid-level bad things and the positive bits were very positive. Definitely had the best moments in the series so far.
The third sister shows some feelings and gets bloody. Mastermind Obi-Wan once again gets it through. Tata dies in quite an undramatic fashion. Sets up for a good final episode.
I've seen Sunday morning cartoons with better character development than this show
Why ist everyone always telling his / her backstory with the empire?
I’m still severely baffled by this great journey Leia has been on when the very first introduction into Star Wats shows a beautiful young Carrie Fisher as Leia leaving a message in R2D2 asking for Obiwans help as he fought with her father. Not “hey obiwan, it’s me again…could use you for another little adventure”.
It’s like there trying to re-write the story with an ending that we already know happened
Just stop the agony of watching the action scenes.
Horrible director
Darth Vader using the force was so epic, really hoped Reva would die.
This episode started to redeem this series quite a bit for me. Reeva's arc finally makes sense and Vader feels more like he should do, directing things from afar then popping in at the last minute to be angry at the world.
finally Darth gets pissed off and starts using the force. some sabre action and abit of Leia fixing something shes never seen before, but she's got the pocket handbook to fixing anything just in the knick of time. 3rd sister is not happy at the end, she's been short changed a coke instead of a thickshake .
This was tolerable, but Darth, Ewan and 3rd Sister can only carry bad writing so far. I don’t know why everyone is so down on Moses Ingram. Would have been better if the storm troopers missed that big ass door even though they were 3 feet away with that giant cannon. That action scene was pretty good compared to the others, but they must be shooting in that tiny digital stage because there just isn’t enough room for those battles to look big.
Thank you for your service Ice Cube
Vader grabs one ship and does cool shit.. then he lets the second ship just take off?
Third Sister shooting 50cal laser bullets into a door forgetting she got a lightsaber?
They shooting at doors when the surrounding area is rocks? They reinforced rocks or some shit?
Obi-wan gonna help walk one shot person away rather than deflect shots just so we get a sacrifice grenade scene?
It’s these moments that really jar you out of the experience and ruin the suspension of disbelief
So if Terminator Lola was workin on it’s own evil agenda… how did Lola open the little door? At first I thought it was vader or reva using the force for how the door gracefully opened and closed but later on when they are busy terminator Lola is on their own attacking Leia

Acting? Bad.
Writing:? Bad.
Directing? Bad.
I really enjoyed The Mandolorian and even parts of Boba Fett, but this latest effort from Disney is dumb, poorly made, and worst of all, boring. I really cannot believe how bad this is.
