Featured reviews
For the first time in two episodes, we left the Daedra and Cyril storyline, and probably rightly so with the tremendous climax we got for it in Episode 8. Episode 9 continues to deal with what happened after the Gorman massacre, and brings together some of the most beloved characters in the rebellion, while removing other characters from the plot who don't arrive until then.
The execution is phenomenal as usual, and this is the strongest arc of the season so far, maybe even of the entire series. Andor continues to establish itself as one of the best, highest-quality, most exciting, and smartest series to ever hit the screen.
This arc has been a spectacular piece of writting, giving us moments we never thought we would ever see in Star Wars!
This episode was the text book of how to do an intense Spy/thriller, with incredible suspense and tension as you don't know who to trust or what will happen! The soundtrack perfectly creates intensity and keeps you on edge!
Alongside Attack On Titan's Decleration of War.. one of the most tense experiences I have had!
This episode saw the best performance Geneviève has delivered as Mon Mothma! Her speech was incredible and all the emotions she goes through.. perfectly conveyed
The speech itself was powerfull and feels more relevant today than I ever thought! The writting is next level!
"The death of truth.. is the ultimate victory of evil!"
Bravo to the writers, producers, actors, everyone involved in creating this piece of art.
I'm super ADHD, and it's hard for me to stay focused on one thing for long. But when I'm watching this show, you couldn't peel my eyes away from the screen at gunpoint. I lock in completely, absorbing as much as possible. There is no other show I'd rather be watching, I wouldn't pull my phone out if I was getting a call from my boss. I am obsessed with how good this show is. And I'm devastated that there will only be three more episodes.
This whole arc felt like Tony Gilroy saying "you know what, I've got one incredible shot at saying everything I ever believed in and I'm gonna do it in Star Wars." And oh boy, are we the better for it.
No, this is not escapism anymore, it's cold hard reality. And it tells the most pressing issues of our time with clarity and urgency. I cried a lot during my first watch and even harder during watch two of this arc.
To see my beliefs, concerns, fears and activism represented in my favourite galaxy feels incredibly special to me. Thank you to Tony and the team, to the cast, to Kathleen Kennedy for pushing this and all our most beloved stories.
Fight the Empire.

- Quotes
Mon Mothma: Fellow senators, friends, colleagues, allies, adversaries - I stand before you this morning with a heavy heart. I've spent my life in this Chamber. I came here as a child. And as I look around me now, I realize I have almost no memories that pre-date my arrival, and few bonds of affection that cleave so tightly. Through these many years, I believe I have served my constituents honorably, and upheld our code of conduct. This Chamber is a cauldron of opinions. And we've certainly all had our patience and tempers tested in pursuit of our ideals. Disagree as we might, I am hopeful that those of you who know me will vouch for my credibility in the days to come. I stand this morning with a difficult message. I believe we are in crisis. The distance between what is said, and what is known to be true, has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands - we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest. This Chamber's hold on the truth was finally lost on the Ghorman Plaza. What took place yesterday - what happened yesterday on Ghorman - was unprovoked genocide. Yes! Genocide! And that truth has been exiled from this Chamber! And the monster screaming the loudest? The monster we've helped create? The monster who will come for us all soon enough - is Emperor Palpatine!
