Destiny

In a show with bad writing and bad acting and illogical story beats, I was genuinely surprised when Jodie Turner-Smith came on screen with some legit good acting. Never heard of this actress, was ready to ignore her flat character and more placeholder dialogue - but couldn't. She's great.

Sadly, and I mean that, her good acting made the rest of the episode even worse by comparison.

No attempt is made to explain why things are happening. They just happen. Cue Jedi for no reason. Cue confusing politics with weird rules. Cue immaculate conception or something? Flashbacks are meant to inform - so why am I more confused?

Unironically one of the worst things I've ever had the misfortune of sitting through. People complain about the sequels, but this is an entirely different level. At least the sequels have enjoyable scenes, likeable characters, and aren't pure nonsense. This is just pure nonsense. It feels like it was pulled off a 12 year old's Tumblr fan-fiction.

When the witches start singing together I almost shut it off. It was so cringey that I actually felt regret, Real regret. Like why did I waste my time watching this? I could have been washing dishes. I could have been shaving, How did I get to this low of a point in my life that I sat through this?

I'll keep it short as the other reviews have done a good job on iterating through all of the awful things going on with this show.

But ultimately, it's just boring... there's so much they could have done with such a fun IP, but they're just writing such... meh... shows

Everything feels so forced, it's like the actors are stressing so hard to get their big break from a Star Wars show that so much just feels so unnatural.

Episode 1 and 2 felt like we were off to a good start, but this just feels like filler. I'm hoping the series can turn itself around since right now it feels like it's completely nosedived and it's going to be hard to try to carry on watching.

This episode advances/exposits the plot about as much as a few lines of dialogue would've. It fills in a few holes/questions from the previous two episodes, but we really didn't need *all* of the "Jedi come and find the sisters" story onscreen. Perhaps if the dialogue were especially interesting, or the characters interacted in an interesting way, then, yeah, sure, go ahead and give us an entire rundown of that day's events, but no, the characters haven't progressed much further that Mae (bad seed) and Osha (neutral seed). And once again, despite having Carrie Anne Moss there onscreen, she's underutilized.

Embarrassingly bad and it disrespects the essence of what Star Wars is. I'm generally not hard to please and have loved many Disney Star Wars shows and movies that others have not. (Ahsoka, Solo, Book of Boba Fett to name a few that I enjoyed) However this is disgustingly bad and feels more like a fan fic. The fact this show has the highest budget of any Star Wars project is astonishing because it completely falls flat. The dialogue is bad, even for Star Wars standards, and the acting does it no favors. The only saving grace of this show is Master Sol and his terrific actor. He is the only interesting character that holds any ounce of my attention at any given moment.
