Ahmed Best in Chapter 20: The Foundling (2023)

Review by jackkoellmann

Chapter 20: The Foundling

The Mandalorian

9/10

I need to see more prequel-era flashbacks

Grogu's flashback reminded me that he lived to see the demise of the old republic. I think they did a really good job with the special effects in this scene, and it was a really cool reminder that The Mandalorian could be a way for Disney to revisit that iconic era of Star Wars cannon. Although, it's also possible that this was just a one-off, and that that period of Grogu's life has even fewer storytelling potential. Either way, it was so great to be basically taken back to Revenge of the Sith, and I hope that Disney producers continue to retell those "Star Wars stories" in ways that both glorify and rectify the sequels. 9 stars for the flashback sequence, 0 stars for the rest of the episode (which I stopped paying attention to when I started this review... It didn't seem like I was missing much).
