Obi-Wan Kenobi

Oh how the mighty have fallen. And I'm not talking about Obi-Wan, I'm talking about Disney. For a studio who usually has top-notch stories and writing in their movies, the Star Wars franchise has been a huge step down for them, and Obi-Wan, unfortunately, is no exception. The show had some truly great moments, but they were few and far between, buried under ridiculous, contrived, nonsensical story and plot elements. And the 3rd Sister inquisiter has WAY too much screen time, aside from being over the top, cheesy, and just outright annoying. This is worth a watch, but just don't expect too much.

Obi-Wan Kenobi may not the best thing from Star Wars that I've seen but it's still worth watching. Ewan McGregor is a great actor and one of the best parts of the prequel trilogy. I was really looking forward to this when I first read about it and the even more so after I saw the trailers. It did not disappoint! I don't consider myself a huge Star Wars fan but I normal fan who does enjoy most of them. I really liked The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett was worth watching. I don't understand most of these negative reviews, it's like most of the people writing them didn't want to enjoy them. If you saw him in the prequels and saw the trailers what were you expecting that you didn't get? Anyway, if you're a fan of Star Wars I definitely recommend you give this a try.

I love the prequels. I do. And while this whole show did a good job of being separate from that trilogy, it did not satisfy me as Disney thought they were doing. Several times while watching I thought I was taking part in a fan fiction. Why does it look like Marvel in places? Why is the writing cheesy? Disney has enough money to hire good writers right? As for the Vader confrontations... they did not work. They were just lengthy (clumsy even) fights and they did nothing for obi wan and Anakin's relationship. The girl playing Leia did a very good job and so did Ewan by playing very heartfelt roles. Everyone else felt forced. Also, the third sister, fifth brother, 124th second cousin whatever that language was... it didn't make any sense. They weren't using those terms in clone wars, the prequels, or the originals so why use them now? Very inconsistent. Disney writers- when you think you're being cool for writing new terms just for the sake of being cool, you're NOT being cool (please stop forcing things and be consistent). Anyways, I'm glad I watched it but it could've been better. Bravo John Williams for another theme. You keep being you.

What a colossal letdown. I'd rather have an Obi Wan film trilogy in the same vein as Rogue One or Solo than this cheesy poorly written fluff of a tv show.

I actually enjoyed Obi-Wan Kenobi a lot more than I expected to. After reading all the mixed reviews I was expecting a slow moving, boring show but this was anything but. I was very entertained from the very first episode to the last. I was actually wanting more episodes when it was over. I'm glad that it's already been renewed for another season. Some of these negative reviews are just ridiculous, people are hating for the sake of hating. As most here have already pointed out, Ewan McGregor is the best part of this series. He's great as Obi-Wan. You can tell they put a lot of love into this because the attention to detail is very obvious. While it's not as good as the Mandalorian it's still a good show in its own right and definitely worth the time of watching it.
