Part V

Part V is exactly what the title implies. It's what we waited for, the episode brings back Kenobi almost to what we knew in the prequels while also giving the emotional character moments we needed.

SPOILERS AHEAD...

This is the first episode to contain full flashbacks giving us a better look at reva's backstory and showing meaningful moments in Kenobi/Anakind history, despite some ineffective de-aging on Hayden Christensen they were very well executed linking into the story at the same time.

Also Vader was no joke in this episode with the improvements since the late 70s early 80s they can really show of Vader at full potential and he is nothing short of terrifying.

I love Star Wars. LOVE STAR WARS. I'm doing my best to love this, and there are elements that are incredible, but there are weak points in the writing/CGI (and some acting) that are hurting the story.

While many others have referenced that the twist was inevitable, it was also too late. This is only a 6-part show. The slow and uneven pace is hurting the positives this show has going for it, creating an emptiness and even a bit of redundancy (how many times can Leia be captured etc). Plus the fight between Reva and Vader was like watching a youngling train, with Vader barely trying, which would have been great if they weren't acting like it was an intense fight...? Just feels like the whole show is a little misguided, like maybe they could have used a few more script edits before going to film.

I want to love it. I sort of like it. I wish it was better than episodes I-III instead of right in line with them.

It's truly sad when you see the wasted potential of this show and this episode is the very reminder of that. Don't get me wrong it still has some of the big issues and you can still feel how bad some of those actors are doing but this episode is the first one that actually focuses on the most important thing which is Vader and Kenobi and their emotional conflicts. Overall, though brought down at times by the problems we already saw in the previous episodes, this episode actually felt like it was related to its source material, it was enjoyable and the best one so far.

I was questioning watching episode 5, glad I did. Respect to the writers on having a vision this whole time, was really sure they were kind of full of it. This episode has a much more of a mature feel to it that episodes 1-4 should have had. Could not be happier with this.

Did you feel similar sentiment of wall e, and toy story, where there it is. Disney should have let Andrew Stanton write the whole thing.

Should petition Stanton to write a new show "Darth Vader" where he mindlessly chops off jedis.
