I could compare this to the games, and on those grounds it would do terribly, but I think I'd rather explain why it's trash on it's own merits.
The Good: the action was top tier, thoroughly enjoyed it and that's what gets it two stars.
The Bad: everything else, the story is contrived and cheap, Master Chief loses his mystique the moment he takes his helmet off and even before then he's just a poorly copy and pasted archetype.
The female lead is mostly just annoyingly preachy and almost everyone we meet seems like a cheap caricature.
In closing, I'll watch another episode or two, but I already know this show will be generic at best, irritating at worst.

There are many things I could say about this wholesome and amazing film. It stands up both on it's own and as a continuation of a great series.
It manages to somehow keep the spirit of the originals and yet put a slightly different tone that makes it its own thing. Definitely worth the watch.

Based purely on the first episode, The Book of Boba already gives you a very different and unique look at the Star Wars Universe. This the harsh, cruel yet honourable side of the Galaxy. We see a rough and ready part of this franchise and I for one can't wait for more.
