Episodes that slow down to flesh out new characters or just to add some more to the story tend to catch some heat. Surely a burst of violence or a riveting chase or cash grab are more interesting when we know who these people are. That has been said about Andor before and will be again.
It hasn't disappointed yet so maybe we can give it a chance before we write it off. We got a couple of big new names to hear about, one of them a complete surprise.
The Empire is a very well known entity but we have never been given more inside looks into how the uniforms think and feel about their status (and how to better it).
I'm sure the special effects will be back. Knowing more about these people is not a distraction.
I cannot believe Disney+ actually allowed something so risky to be made for a show that's set in the reality of one of their biggest brands. Feels more akin to "Squid Game" on Netflix than anything else; a grim, cynical refutation of a broken political system (which draws direct comparisons against our own), masterfully captured by the indomitable director Toby Haynes - who truly depicts even the darkest moments that could potentially be quite triggering, respectfully - whilst skilfully juxtaposing the growing sense of hopelessness with the hopefulness of the flourishing rebellion & thus, clearly conveying to the audience just how important it is to the survival of civilization; the oppressive establishment isn't just corrupt & tyrannical, but inhuman, so the narrative is far deeper than that because it becomes a poignant reflection of the endurance of the human spirit, in spite of insurmountable odds.
I say this as a casual "Star Wars" fan but the utter genius & creator Tony Gilroy has used the iconic sci-fi Disney property to explore real-life issues, making a beautifully nuanced commentary which feels startlingly relevant. Truly profound.
Anyway, that's a conversation for a different day. I'm just glad to be somewhere where most people watching something Star Wars aren't being total jerks.
Like others have pointed out, what the Empire does to people behind the scenes isn't something that's seen very much in this universe, and it's brutal. This episode was deeply disturbing, from the behavior of some of the inmates to the nature of some of the (non-rebel) scum working inside some of the the most tyrannical baddies Erin cinematic history.
Andy Serkis! What a surprise! I love that man. The rest of the acting is very solid too.
This is a very consistently done show. I don't blame anyone for favoring as much as they do.
This is a strong episode that gradually increases the tension and introduces some recognisable actors.
The plot continues to slow burn the development of the rebellion and does it in a plausible way. The different factions, ideologies and individuals are portrayed realistically in the face of an empire with colossal totalitarian grip on the galaxy. I love the scene involving Luthen and Saw Gerrera which gives Forrest Whitaker some strong dialogue to deliver brilliantly.
For atmosphere, the Narkina 5 factory scenes are the best of the episode for me. They are tense, very dystopian and involve some strong cameos. One very well known actor is introduced through a nice reveal that involves a number shots edited in a way that obscures his face until the right moment. The Bladerunner style music is used in numerous scenes and it adds to the bleak tone of everything.
It's difficult to feel too much tension in what's happening to Cassian, plus the fact that so many other characters are urgently searching for him, because we ultimately know where his future lies.
It's an 8.5/10 for me but I round upwards.
The actors are ALL doing an amazing job! Something that we dont usually expect from Star Wars! Some shows or movie usually have a performance or characters that are not convincing or believable! But here.. every character feels natural and you connect with all of them!
The Cinematogrophy and direction is also amazing! It looks a lot better than Kenobi and you can feel how much work they put into this!
This is Star Wars doing something new and different and i LOVE it!
¿Sabías que…?
- TriviaThe prison world pays homage to the dystopian reality of George Lucas' USC student film THX 1138 (1971). Prisoners dressed in white, living a sterile existence, where their work gives them purpose.
- ErroresWhen the prison transport is approaching Narkina 5, the ship rolls to one side and the prisoners are seen reacting to this, yet the shoes they were forced to kick off earlier remain lying in the same place.
- Citas
Saw Gerrera: Aren't you tired of playing behind the scenes, Luthen?
Luthen Rael: Well, aren't you tired of fighting with people who agree with you?
Saw Gerrera: You come all this way to scold me? Or did you bring me some toys?
Luthen Rael: Mm. I did, but they're not for free.
Saw Gerrera: Nothing with you is free.
Luthen Rael: Not every operation is as flush as yours.
Saw Gerrera: Tell me what you've got.
Luthen Rael: Well, how about a full set of Imperial drive adapters? I've also got three sealed Steergard targeting deflectors.
Saw Gerrera: Hm. You have this all here with you?
[Luthen doesn't answer]
Saw Gerrera: At what cost?
Luthen Rael: Anto Kreegyr. I want you to meet him.
Saw Gerrera: [laughs] Anto Kreegyr?
Luthen Rael: He's been probing the Imperial power station at Spellhaus. He's found a weakness in the defenses. It may take some time to work up, but he's got an angle.
Saw Gerrera: The man is an ox! Slow! And stupid!
Luthen Rael: And strong. I want you to hear his plan. He'll need air support.
Saw Gerrera: Let's just keep this simple. I'll take all three deflectors. How much?
Luthen Rael: Well, you meet with Kreegyr, they're free. You don't, I'll take them elsewhere.
Saw Gerrera: I work alone.
Luthen Rael: That's what I'm trying to change.
Saw Gerrera: I'm not going to put my people at risk for someone else.
Luthen Rael: We need to pull together, Saw! Whatever our final version of success looks like, there's no chance any of us can make it real on our own. We need the Empire to help. We need them angry. We need them coming down hard. Oppression breeds rebellion. Kreegyr needs air support.
Saw Gerrera: I'm not for hire.
Luthen Rael: Think of it. Think of Spellhaus in flames. Neither of you could do it on your own, but together...
Saw Gerrera: Kreeygr's a Separatist. Maya Pei's a neo-Republican. The Ghorman Front, the Partisan Alliance? Sectorists! Human cultists! Galaxy partitionists! They're lost! All of them, lost! Lost!
[tense pause]
Saw Gerrera: What are you, Luthen? I've never really known. What are you?
Luthen Rael: I'm a coward. I'm a man that's terrified the Empire's power will grow beyond the point where we can do anything to stop it. I'm the one that says we'll die with nothing if we don't put aside our petty differences.
Saw Gerrera: Petty? I am the only one with clarity of purpose.
Luthen Rael: [laughs] Well, anarchy is a seductive concept. Bit of a luxury, I'd argue, to a man who's hiding in cold caves and begging for spare parts.
[another tense pause, then Saw laughs]
Saw Gerrera: No sale today, Luthen. Good luck with Anto Kreegyr.
