Review of Chapter 12: The Siege

I had high hopes after the previous episode! And NO, not because of Ahsoka Tano! But let's start with the basics. Although the role would be fitting, but Gina's acting was weak in the first season and now it is even more obvious. With Chapter 11, I hoped that the series returned to the path that the first season had begun to traverse, but NOT! The episode 4 is definitely not a filler, however the plot is weakly reasoned and take the story forward randomly through weakly related events. This seems to have become a trademark of the second season and this show somehow always becomes far-fetched when it wants to be overly significant and too big too fast! Furthermore Star Wars still can't grow out of portraying the Empire as a congregation of utterly dilettante idiots except for some evil masterminds. Perfectly childish representation of the antagonists, which kills all kinds of tensions! But my main problem are those little dried out Snoke-like something in bacta tanks with the Palpatine's Teachings playing in the background. I guess I wasn't alone with the idea that the sequel trilogy was a historical violence against good taste! I was hoping Disney recognized this and wouldn't bring The Mandalorian anywhere near it, but they failed! Again!
