Kenobi: A Star Wars Fan Film

The plot is engaging and managed to raise the stakes in a short time, the act is brilliant, fighting very realistic, cinematography and Tatooine scenery absolutely beautiful, costumes and props entirely believable, and the soundtrack (recorded by Budapest Scoring Orchestra) astonishing! Also, captain Leegus has a nice Krennic edge to him (played by James A. Taylor - the voice of Obi-Wan in TCW!). My only objection is the sound of an approaching Imperial vehicle seen through macrobinoculars, which should have been much quieter and distant-sounding. Otherwise, everything was executed nearly perfectly.

Satterlund's Kenobi has set a seriously high bar for any future fan film, as this looks, sounds and feels like far more. Most importantly, this is how Star Wars is done. Hopefully, we'll see more of it.

Great movie you can tell these guys have a true passion for not only film but Star Wars as a whole. The camera work is impressive for a fan made film and the effects work while other fan made films struggle to feel real this one nails it ,but they changed they title just to get attention. I truly want to know why you guys did that? Takes away from the film in my option and is lazy. I'm that Karen I know I'm sorry!

I wasn't expecting much when I first stumbled across this as most of my fan film encounters have been underwhelming. If you don't overanalyze it or pick apart the effects you should enjoy this fun add-on to the Star Wars story line. It's a decently written & acted piece that I give strong kudos to for sets, costumes, & props.

Honestly don't waste your time with this. Non canon fan made mess. Writing is that have a child and the effects are laughable. Stay on YouTube maybe rather then making short films? I think if your a kid you will enjoy this film. If you are a Star Wars fan you will not.

Pacing is slow, the camera style is basic at best and that's being kind.

It's almost like they thought this was a good idea but never planned anything. I have seen Student films done better then what these grown adults made. And I won't go into detail or spoil it but just make it have more fights and maybe that could save it but even then I don't think it would. Just a pure mess never should have been made.

If you're into Star Wars then this little gem is a must-watch. I don't want to make this review too long because the gist of it is this: it's with Obi-Wan and it is produced incredibly well, for a fan film at least. It's fan fiction like this that gives me and others new hopes that perhaps Star Wars can get back on track. So if Disney is reading this, head my advice: your new Kenobi series should get take notes from this and The Mandalorian. Or, in short, let passionate people, like the ones behind this fan film, bring true Star Wars to life.

It's only 18 minutes runtime by the way but that's 18 minutes more than the Rise of Skywalker...
