Part I

It is hilarious how bad it is. Also the show itself is kinda bad and ruins a lot of background in the universe. Acting is okay cgi is pretty bellow average. Could be improved but it still has some pretty things baked into it and makes me think that they didn't think this plot through very much and how it places into the rest of the universe.

Ewan is great. Everything looks great. Nice story setup and then...an infantile chase scene worthy of the finest Teletubbie episode. At least it was only 30 seconds or so.

I don't like Flea or that over the top Reva-character either but I sure hope they won't include anymore kindergarten stuff.

Glad to see Obi Wan back on screen, but didn't blow my socks off just yet. Interested to see where it goes! Also great to hear John Williams back on the score.

Disney's sole intent with these Disney+ shows (Star Wars and MCU) is to take all the soul from the movies and stuff it down the drain. Some of the acting in this episode is straight up awful, mainly because the writing and production is so "on-nose" that it's impossible to deliver in a way that doesn't sound cheesy. The plot is spoon fed so carefully that it made me forget that we have a national shortage of baby formula. The tone is bland and the Star Wars novelty just doesn't work like it used to. There's just no nuance here. Nothing memorable, just another piece of Disney content. This isn't art, this is a product.

Still, most people will probably like it, as this is yet another example of Disney only making shows for the broadest of audiences. It's not like episode this is awful, it's just boring and very telling for how the series is gonna play out.

It's Star Wars content so I'll watch the whole series, but it's just gonna be another lukewarm viewing experience. Not good not bad.

Nothing really happened. And the chase scene with leia was pretty cringe. The "bad guys" don't seem too menacing at all. World was set up decently well and visually looked good.
