Daughter of Ferrix

This show has built itself a really great scope of paranoia and intrigue. I think what is particularly satisfying is how so few of us saw this coming. It makes it such a treat. We've got back to the Empire as this terrifying force in the universe. It's a really great reminder to fans of what was so deftly constructed in the original trilogy and it's great to discover how Tony Gilroy truly understands the background landscape of those movies that we all love so dearly.

It's refreshing to be afraid of the Empire once again. The final shot is quite contemplative and has some symmetry with Rogue One.

After the previous episode which delivrred incredible tension and amazing writing and acting, this felt like a great way to digest what we just experienced as well as setting the stage for the finale!

At this point you can feel how the rebellion is only getting closer qnd closer! The characters are facing some turning points and they have to fully commit themselves to the cause, if this is gonna work!

After Luthens legendary monologue in the previous episode, you kinda see him differently now! Its like you finally understand him and you root for him more than ever! For that reason I am glad he gets one of the best scenes in this episode!

The season might have been slow at first, but all thst set up and introduction is about to pay off!

Andor got the brunt of the sword and it is really disheartening. Obi-Wan Kenobi and BOBF turned a lot of people off unfortunately.

Andor is the show that the adult side of every Star Wars fan yearned/yearns for. This is a real show with chalant characters; intelligent writing with a large dose of rationale. Everything makes sense. Nothing makes you scratch your head in confusion.

If you are reading this, and you HAVEN'T watched Andor yet, I urge you to check it out. Sure, it's slow, but I like to use the term focused. And that focus gives the action exponentially more weight when it comes. The payoff is potent.

This episode was no exception. Luthen is becoming one of my favorite characters in Star Wars, and it was cool to see more aliens. I also can't wait to see what happens with Mon Mothma, Cassian and Syril.

Can't wait for next week!

The poker face of the Star Wars universe. This show was always playing the long game, I was going to fold, it had me fooled. It's a drama that kept getting better and better and this week we had a huge emotional gut punch, a heart wrenching performance from a droid, characters being captured by huge nets made of tripe, the pieces all coming together for the Empire snd the rebellion and a cheeky little space battle. Everything about this show improves week on week, setting up a 'well im not sure' for next week as the story will go on for 12 more episodes soon after. Can't wait for its hand to be played, I'm going all in.

With a bit of a rough start, Andor is proving to become a must watch show.

This episode specifically focusses more on character development and gives the actors the needed screentime to actually act. Long close-ups engage the watchers and we can see the change in our characters unfolding in a way the old films use to do it.

As the previous episode, it's of a high quality, and after the rush of the previous episode, this one is a well paced, visually stunning and emotionally engaging 40 min.

The camera work, acting and editing is on the spot and Benjamin Caron's directing is superb!

I cannot wait for the season's final!
