Ahsoka may not the best thing from Star Wars that I've seen but it's still worth watching. I was really looking forward to this when I first read about it and the even more so after I saw the trailers. It did not disappoint! I don't consider myself a huge Star Wars fan but I'm a normal fan who does enjoy most of them. Like by most, I really liked The Mandalorian and Andor. I thought those two are some of the best things Star Wars has put out since the original trilogy. I even thought The Book of Boba Fett and Obi-Wan Kenobi were both worth watching. I don't understand most of these negative reviews, it's like most of the people writing them didn't want to like this. What were you expecting that you didn't get? Anyway, if you're a fan of Star Wars I definitely recommend you give this a try.

I actually enjoyed Ahsoka a lot more than I expected to. After reading all the mixed reviews I was expecting a slow moving, boring show but this was anything but. I was very entertained from the very first episode to the last. I was actually wanting more episodes when it was all ove he r. I know they're already talking about renewing this for another season so I hope they go through with that. The cast here is terrific. Obviously Rosario Dawson is great as Ahsoka but it's the supporting cast which makes this show that much better. It is extremely talented cast with Natasha Lou Bordizzo, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Wes Chatham, David Tennant, the late great Ray Stevenson, and many more. You can tell they put a lot lot of love into this because the attention to detail is very obvious. While it's I not as good as the Mandalorian or Andor, it's still a good show in its own right.

Having heard many bad things about "Ahsoka," I was a bit cautious about watching it, fearing I would be disappointed. I was worried over nothing as I really enjoyed it! The story by Filoni is solid, the casting and acting is excellent. I particularly found Winstead to be a perfect Hera Sindulla, Kudos to her. Sure, there are going to be some slow parts, what show or movie doesn't have that? You can't have phew-phew gun fights constantly. It's called "pacing." There were a few spots in the light sabre fights that looked a bit weak or tired, but it really isn't anything to complain about. Otherwise the CG effects were movie quality. I hope we get a second season of this.

After Andor showed how amazing a Star Wars show can be when competently written by people with talent, directed by people with creativity and performed by actors with passion for their roles, this show comes along to remind everyone that Andor was a one-off occurrence, an anomaly. Ahsoka exemplifies the (few) strengths and the (many) weaknesses of recent Disney Plus Star Wars shows. It wastes time, it has bland characters and it exists to remind you of better things Star Wars has done.

The plot of Ahsoka can easily be summarised as being stretched beyond belief. The story of Ahsoka and the Rebels crew trying to prevent the return of Thrawn and rescue Ezra could have easily been told in at least 3 or 4 episodes, with the other 4 being used to build to an epic battle with Thrawn. Instead it takes us 8 episodes to set up the next season or movie, instead of resolving the plotlines of this season. It moves at an agonizingly slow pace wherein it doesn't build any of its characters and just serves up meaningless action and fluff.

The characters are mostly bland and one-note. The returning Rebels characters are all far less expressive than their animated characters and the actors all look bored and confused. It's clear the direction they were given was poor since most are competent actors in other projects. Rosario Dawson is wooden as Ahsoka which is a real shame. She reacts to everything with bored indifference. Sabine is now insufferable who basically screws over the good guys more than once and is never called out on it. The only exceptions are Baylon played by Ray Stevenson, and Shin played by Ivanna Sakhno. They're dynamic is legitimately interesting but that is all there is. Interest. They're characters are given lackluster wrap-ups.

Of course this show contains all the fan-service you'd expect. It is all there to hide the clear lack of any substance in the script. The show is visually pretty great but the costumes look so cheap and bland. When the volume is used it is very obvious. Another issue is that no casual viewer can really enjoy this show without having consumed 7 seasons of Clone Wars and 4 seasons of Rebels. The show keeps telling us that Thrawn is dangerous but we are never shown this. Thrawn does barely anything in the overall plot and there is no reason to fear him.

In the end, this is another show with nothing to say. It lacks substance. Two decent characters, pretty visuals and fan service can't save this show from the pool of mediocrity/stupidity of its fellow TV show brethren. Just re-watch Andor.

This series features characters introduced in the animated Star Wars series 'The Clone Wars' and 'Rebels' so it would help to have seen those first, I certainly felt I was missing out on something having yet to watch 'Rebels'.

Set after the fall of the Galactic Empire, this series follows Ahsoka Tano, Anakin Skywalker's Padawan. She believes that Grand Admiral Thrawn is still alive and remains a threat to the New Republic. She acquires a star map that should show his location. Unfortunately it is locked; she is advised to seek the help of her former Padawan Sabine Wren. Sabine has her own reasons for wanting to find Thrawn; when he vanished so did Ezra Bridger, a close friend of hers. Also seeking Thrawn are Baylan Skoll, a Jedi turned bounty hunter, his apprentice Shin Hati and Morgan Elsbeth, one of the last of the surviving Nightsisters. The mission will see Ahsoka and Sabine face many dangers and travel further then either imagined.

Despite not having seen 'Rebels' I enjoyed this. I liked the character of Ahsoka since she was introduced in 'The Clone Wars' and Sabine quickly grew on me. Other main characters, both good and bad, were fun to watch. There is a good amount of action, fight scenes are impressively choreographed and space-based action is exciting without being too overblown. The cast is impressive; Rosario Dawson really captures Ahsoka, a character who is older and wiser than the Padawan we met in The Clone Wars. Natasha Liu Bordizzo is really likeable as Sabine Wren and the late Ray Stevenson puts in a fine performance as Baylan Skoll. As one would expect from Star Wars the action takes place on a number of distinct planets. The end of the first season is very much a cliff-hanger so I'm pleased to hear that a second season is to be made. Overall I thought this was a lot of fun; well worth a watch if you are a Star Wars fan.

I usually don't write a series review if not all episodes are released yet, but with Ahsoka, I feel like I have to. So, just as a warning, this review gets a little ranty.

I keep seeing these amazing reviews of people praising this show to be some masterpiece and I honestly don't get it.

I have been a fan of Ahsoka's character since I was a child. I grew up with her and I am so nostalgic about her, especially because she is practically what introduced me to Star Wars, and I appreciate Filoni's handling of her character in Clone Wars and Rebels as much as anyone else. She began as an immature student and grew to be a very wise and independent person. I was thrilled when they announced her live-action show. The cherry on top was that Thrawn would be the antagonist. That being said, I do know her character and liked her from moment one.

And now, with this show, I feel incredibly gaslit by fans who claim this show (especially episodes 4 and 5) is Christ's second coming and praise Filoni for his genius. But I also feel gaslit by Filoni and the show itself. I am certainly confronted with a character I know nothing about whatsoever. Sabine is a different character; Hera is a different character. I get that animation and live-action are different, but naming this difference as an excuse for stale and emotionless characters is just a cheap ploy. All of these strong female characters that were written so well in the animated shows are now blank, emotionless slates with a history Filoni keeps hinting at but never fully explains and it honestly annoys me so much.

With the live-action show, Filoni's lack of writing skill on a line-level becomes painfully apparent, and to distract from that he keeps jangling shiny keys in front of the viewer with these callbacks and nostalgic moments like the Clone Wars or Anakin wanting to teach her one last lesson, which I still don't know what that was supposed to be. When I watched some YouTube videos of fans breaking the episode down and theorising what the lesson could be, I found myself painfully laughing at myself (in a sad way). How come the writing in this show is so bad and opaque that they have to rely on the fans to pull at loose strings and tie them together and hope that everyone then ends up thinking that this was what Filoni had intended from day one? When I tried to think of a possible explanation of what Anakin's lesson was supposed to be about, I couldn't think of any answer that matched what other people were thinking. It is not only that, but I feel like everybody has different answers and not in a way where a writer writes didactically to leave it for free interpretation but in a way where the writer had no idea what they even wanted the lesson to be.

So far, in this show, I have only seen bad writing, bad dialogue, stale acting, characters that are intriguing (Skoll and Shin) but are left so vague for so long that by the end I don't even care where they came from. You can't leave the mystery open for so long and then explain it at the end of the season (if their character will even be explained at all). If there is nothing for me to get emotionally attached to at a certain point, I will not care for the rest of it, even if it does end up being explained. The same is true with the history between Sabine and Ahsoka. What is it? Why aren't we seeing it? Why are the characters just talking about it like it is general knowledge the viewer already knows? (Again, if it is supposed to be written to keep it open for interpretation, it has sorely failed.) There are only two more episodes left and if it does end up being explained in the LAST TWO EPISODES the pacing will be off so freaking bad!! Why wait so long?

The issue I have is the writing. And the writing in a show is everything, so I have an issue with the show. And with everyone pretending this is "the best Star Wars since..." If this is the best Star Wars since the Disney area, then it's pretty bad to begin with.

I don't want to tell anyone that they are supposed to dislike this show. If you enjoy it, great. But I feel so sorely misrepresented in my opinion of this show. It seems like everyone keeps falling for these cheap callbacks and nostalgia bait moments and cheap execution of some character arc I wasn't even sure Ahsoka was on, because, again, nothing about the writing has led me to think that! I get that a lot of things about a story are supposed to be shrouded in mystery to keep the viewers' interest, but at one point, when everything is just plain vague and so unsatisfyingly touched upon and then poorly executed, I really have to ask myself if anyone working on this show had any idea about what they wanted this show to be!

I hope the last two episodes will prove me wrong, but I doubt it. You can't rely on the last two episodes to remedy an entire season of bad writing.

This is another forgettable and mediocrely-written Star Wars show by the best streaming service ever!

It is overall not as bad as Obi-Wan Kenobi and way more well-produced and well-made, but it's still a soulless show that has barely anything to offer.

In order to keep my review of the whole show short and get my points across more easily, I will just list the pros and cons and won't get into details.

So for things I liked first:

• The music is decent at first but gets kinda forgettable after a couple of episodes

• The action scenes are well-choreographed and surprisingly well-thought-out, but ultimately get dull

• The visuals and CGI is pretty good

• Ahsoka's style of fighting is pretty cool

• Sabine not being a superhero and gradually getting better but still getting hit nonetheless

• There are some setups and payoffs and things don't just magically come to aid the characters and also they don't always succeed on the first try

• The flashback episode was pretty good

• Bad guys getting a decent screen time as much as the protagonists

• Ray Stevenson

• Thrawn's intro

.... and, that's it I guess? I can't really think of other things I liked about the show other than some cool action scenes and some moments here and there. But there is really nothing to like about its characters or the writing in general.

Now the bads and the uglies:

• Dave Filoni's writing and not having other writers work with him on the show

• Ahsoka being a black void of a character and having zero personality whatsoever. She's just devoid of any characterization.

• Sabine getting more screen time and character arc than Ahsoka. Might as well call the show Sabine instead.

• Sabine's baffling decision-making and having zero plan gambling the fate of an entire galaxy over one person

• The barebone story and plot that could've even been a 3-episode mini-series

• Main characters having the biggest plot armor in recent years

• Bad guys/good guys having the clear opportunity to end each other multiple times but doing nothing

• Thrawn being wasted and turned into something even worse than a cartoonishly evil character. He is a forgettable terribly-written villain that does nothing and basically runs to his grandmas for help every 5 minutes. They did a terrible job of making him intimidating or powerful.

• The trope of bad guys having every opportunity to kill the good guys and even getting the orders to shoot but still standing around looking at each other and doing nothing. Even worse is when they do decide to shoot, they stop because the good guy said "Wait"!

• Maybe too much use of nostalgia-baiting and random name-throwing and references for its own good. It's basically all for the hardcore Star Wars fanboys to lose their mind because they name-dropped Glup --ito and now they think the show is a masterpiece because an old character had a cameo.

• Ahsoka not feeling like the main character at all and having less and less screen time every episode

• Ahsoka having a semblance of a character arc which turns her into a worse character with having a more baffling mentality of actually agreeing with Sabine's stupid choices

• Introducing the element of witchcraft which makes it feel less like Star Wars. I understand that the Jedi are basically space wizards. But this is just too un-Star Wars-y, and feels like they don't know how to make interesting stories with Star Wars anymore, so they resort to throwing every genre at it.

• The story is more like a video game, especially in the finale, because there isn't much meat to the story so they have to resort to video game storytelling and level design instead of actual good writing

• Forgettable dialogue and sometimes even childish

• The pacing is pretty bad especially in the beginning with many pointless drawn-out scenes where characters just stare and do nothing

• Too many action scenes in the second half of the season that get boring and dull after a while

• No tension whatsoever. There are no stakes because you know the outcome every time and an action scene without any tension of stakes is a boring one.

• Not giving a good characterization to the main protagonists, or a reason as to why the audience should care about them for those who haven't seen the animated shows.

• Uninteresting story a show overall since you don't care about any of the characters.

• Unfinished storylines and plot when the show is advertised as a mini-series. So basically the nothing sandwich of a story also didn't have a conclusion.

• Did I forget to mention how awful and forgettable the characters are and how terribly written they are?

These are the problems I can think of right now. I'm sure if I got into details I would remember more problems I had with it, and the review would be 5 times bigger than this.

But overall, I'm not sure what the point of this was. Basically, everything from this show is forgettable and I feel like I'm being generous with giving it a 6. I do not care about the characters especially Ahsoka herself and I'm just observing them from afar and not caring about them at all. The plot is really thin and how it unfolds and things happen is only because of the stupid decisions Sabine makes. The only interesting and intriguing character is Baylan Skoll which is all because of Ray Stevenson's acting. But they waste him and his character so badly too.

I understand if they're trying to prepare a new trilogy of movies maybe? Or a season 2. But this was the worst way to go at it, especially since they botched the main bad guy from the start by making him as unintimidating as possible as if it was on purpose. They really dropped the ball with Thrawn.

I'm not sure what the point was, but as long as Disney isn't willing to hire actual professional writers who know what they're doing, this is what we're gonna get with the shows and the movies. The shows apart from Andor have been nothing sandwich after nothing sandwich with barely any story to them. Basically, drop some references and names here and there and show some cool action scenes, bring back old actors from the prequel trilogy and utilize them as much as you can, and nostalgia-bait really hard so fans would lose their minds as they just witnessed a masterpiece because there was a cameo. Also don't forget to make the most forgettable and black holes of characters you've ever seen. Congratulations, you just made a $100M Star Wars show that will definitely turn a profit and be called an actual good show by the fanboys.

This series started out very interesting. Ahsoka seemed cool and confident and the new sith had an edge to them that felt dangerous. Then it got bad. Really bad. These characters are awful and have no substance whatsoever. The sets look top notch and then the characters look like they are from a high school play. They act like it too. Whoever plays Sabine Wren is a joke. Every scene she was in was immediately ruined and the actress had no ability to make Sabine the tough rogue she should be. Now Sabine is an ignorant whiny brat. The sith duo quickly lost that dangerous edge and simply became edgelords. It's clear the creators were just hoping people would be so mesmerized by ahsoka being live action now that they wouldnt mind the lack of excitement or talent. Mr. Krabs has a role though so that's nice.

I'll state right off the bat that I have never seen an episode of "Star Wars rebels," and only a handful of "The Clone Wars" episodes, so I was naturally caught a little off guard with how well received the first few episodes were amongst Star Wars fans. There's no way for me to sugar coat this, but it was painfully slow. When you take away all the fan service and the joy of seeing animated characters in live-action for the first time, it's honestly a little bit dull. Episodes 1-3 really should have been combined into one, maybe two, episodes.

I'll also throw out the fact that this feels much more like Sabine's show than Ashoka's aside from the frequent Anakin references. I wish Ashoka Tano's character was more centered in a show named after herself. That doesn't drag down the quality of the series though, at least not as a whole.

All that being said, I carried on watching because I do enjoy Star Wars and I quite like the character of Ahsoka based on my limited experience with her. And, boy oh boy. Nothing could have prepared me for how good it gets.

Episode 4 is good, for sure. It's nothing insanely special, but it was refreshing to see the show finally pick up the pace and throw us into the stakes it's seemingly promised us from Episode One. When the credits rolled, I found myself actually wanting to keep watching for a reason other than saying I watched the whole series.

Now, Episode 4 may be good, but Episode 5? I can confidently say that Episode 5 is one of the best pieces of modern Star Wars media out there. It's a perfect reminder that fan service is a perfectly valid form of storytelling when combined with genuinely good writing and direction. Yes, there's plenty of fan service to go around, that even made myself (the casual viewer) lose my mind in anticipation, but the main reason Episode 5 is so good is simply because it was well-put together. It's a beautiful piece of media that truly makes you realize how much potential "Ahsoka" has.

Now, past Episode 5, the show had its ups and downs for sure. The difference in episode quality is noticeable (it seems like Dave Filoni should have just directed them all because his are much better). That being said, while I do criticize how the show starts off slow, the fact that there are tonal inconsistencies, quality gaps, and sometimes the acting seems just a tad bit less-than, I can still say with full confidence that "Ahsoka" is ended up being a spectacular watch.

My advice? Push yourself threw the first three episodes and forgive your lack of past knowledge, if you have my same inexperience with these characters.

I promise you it's worth it.

Within the first paragraph of the spoken word, the series felt doomed. 0h, then it got worse. Until they come up with a workable script and directors who actually know what they're doing, I'm done with this one. Perhaps the people who have done this have no idea what they're doing. I feel sorry for what few good actors there are in the show. I was excited about it because I believe Zoe Saldana is one of the better actors out there. At this point I really can't think of anyone who is worth watching. I've loved others Star Wars shows but they all have a bit of an edge. This one is absolutely, positively too dull.

First of ! I rewatched this show 7 times so that I'm an expert ! Seeing comments that complain and are disrespectful to the actresses ,the director and more ,is absolutely hilarious ! I heard people saying that the story doesn't make sense or that the plot would be bad ! But the irony is ,all of them didn't watch Rebels or clone wars ! They don't understand that Ahsoka is the spin-off of Star Wars Rebels with the focus on Ahsokas last character development and the build up to Dave filonis movie ! Hearing people say that Rosario can't act , is absolutely nonsense !! Because Rosario Dawson was perfect ! This is master level Niveau which is Emmy worthy ( she showed emotion but traumatised in the first 5 episodes ) and after Ahsokas last development she changed her emotion because Ahsoka accepted her past and smiled like in old times ! Rosario showed that Ahsoka was different after the events of the fight with vader ! Seeing Ahsoka accepting her past and having hope ! Is her ultimativ development and last lesson ! Also giving her the chance to have her own padawan ( and with the knowledge of different perspectives and time, makes that story more interesting)

What I've seen in the first two episodes is the definition of mediocracy. It's not bad, it's not good, just hanging somewhere in between.

The story so far is non-existent. There are some bad guys and... that's it.

Writing is horrible. The character interactions were pretty much the most boring I've seen in a very long time. It was painful to watch sometimes. It was that bad.

Forced wisdom... is the worst kind of writing.

Logic has left the show. When I saw Sabine, one of the smartest fighters in the SW Universe, punching a robot in the face, I immediately lowered my expectations. After that, it even got worse. She's definitely NOT the Sabine I knew from the Rebel series.

Acting is also generally ... bland. Even Rosario Dawson seems off as Ahsoka.

But there are also good things.

CGI and scenery are breathtaking.

David Tenant is amazing as the voice of Huyang. God I love this man.

The show has some promise of mystery in the distant horizon, and that's what encourages me to watch more. If they can deliver, the show can get a lot better.

It's better than Obiwan.

Shots look cool.

Score and sounds are ok.

Actors look amazing.

Fight choreography and cuts are bad. Tiktok influencers can do way better than what you get in the first episode. They just don't know how to make it. They need support there.

Story is okay but not even close to Andor.

Andor makes you care and feel so many emotions. For now you can't compare them.

I'll watch the next episode.

This part is about imdb. Why can we not give short feedback on movies. People hate long comments/reviews/articles. That's why we are here and not reading some expert. 600 words is like an essay homework that you copy over from chatgpt. Please reduce it. 100-200 words are more than enough.

Ahsoka Tano Episode V, the latest installment in the Ahsoka Tano series, is a testament to the passion and dedication of its creator, Dave Filoni. It's abundantly clear that Filoni has poured his heart and soul into this project, and the result is nothing short of remarkable.

In this episode, Filoni continues to demonstrate that he has truly mastered the art of storytelling within the Star Wars universe. His apprenticeship under George Lucas has paid off, as he seamlessly weaves the narrative of Ahsoka's post-Clone Wars life, delving into the depths of her character and experiences.

The choice of the theme "LIVE" to awaken Ahsoka from her PTSD is not only emotionally resonant but also a brilliant storytelling device. It underscores the fact that Ahsoka has never fully recovered from the trauma of the Clone Wars, a pain she has silently carried with her for years. This exploration of her inner turmoil adds layers of depth to her character that fans have been yearning for.

The pacing of the episode is spot-on, keeping the audience engaged from start to finish. Casting Ariana Greenblatt as Young Gamora is a stroke of genius, and her chemistry with Hayden Christensen, who portrays Anakin Skywalker, is his best work ever. It's a pairing that leaves fans hoping for a spin-off TV show featuring these two talented actors.

In all honesty, it's difficult to find any flaws to critique in Ahsoka Tano Episode V. The episode feels perfect in every aspect, from the storytelling to the character development, and the overall execution. It's a testament to the dedication and talent of Dave Filoni and the entire creative team behind the series.

*After 2 episodes* Finally some real star wars. As a CW&Rebels fan, I was in tears multiple times after just the first 2 episodes.. the soundtracks are beautiful, the story is straight, many references, good coreography, cool villians, etc, i could mention so many other things I loved. This is what Kenobi should have been. For some people the pacing can be a little slow in the beginning, but this show is basically Rebels season 5, we have to give a chance for new watchers to catch up (I didnt mind hearing some heartwarming recaps at all).

Now it is clear that Filoni is our savior, thank you Dave, cannot wait to see what you have to show us this season.

Overall, I like this series for being a nod to the fans who watched the animated series (Filloni's revenge!!). Rosario Dawson's Asohka remains the same tenacious capable Jedi dropout we all love. That's the reason I'm sticking with it.

But, in so many ways, this series also feels like a stepdown from the narrative impact Rebels had, and the maturity or authority these characters developed over it's run.

In SW Rebels, Sabine Wren matures over the course of the series to a responsible formidable adult, who could hold her own with Gar Saxon. But in this new series, she's a petulant impulsive teenager shirking responsibilities and unaware of consequences.

The same goes for Ryder Azadi, the Governor of Lothal, who is here taken from an imposing seasoned leader and reduced to a Jeff Goldblum Grandmaster knockoff. These changes didn't need to happen, but they come off as grating since the show is intended to be a nod to the fan who'd know these characters, and presumably be fond of them.

Firstly, it seems rather unwelcoming to those who haven't completed watching all episodes of "The Clone Wars" and "Rebels" (myself included). Many characters are either unfamiliar or completely unknown, and the show fails to provide adequate introductions. Halfway through the season, I still feel that understanding the plot requires prior knowledge of the characters' backgrounds, which I lack. This makes the dialogues somewhat confusing. Additionally, the frequent use of mysterious half-smiles and slow nods by many characters doesn't contribute to clarity.

Regarding the protagonists, I'm uncertain if they are meant to be likable. Without revealing too much, I believe protagonists should typically represent "good people" with justifiable reasons for their actions and a sense of responsibility, which, in my view, this show lacks.

As for the Doctor Who aspect, I can't pinpoint exactly what reminds me of Doctor Who, but it's more about the vibe of certain minor details. For instance, the circular symbols and the Witch's coven in the first episode evoke memories of Gallifrey. Then there are the star whales, Ezra's attempt to persuade the enemy to grant them time, and of course, Huyang.

In all, I didn't enjoy it as much as the Mandalorians, but it's much more enjoyable than Obi-Wan.

Ahsoka is, for most of the first episode, fairly decent. Rosario Dawson is a rather muted hero, but there's a good fight scene early on and I thought the general was an appealing character.

But the character of Sabine makes no sense. She starts by doing something rebellious for no other reason than to show that, yeah, she's a rebel just for the sake of being a rebel. Later she does something blatantly idiotic that results in exactly what you expect to happen. And once again, the reason for her decision makes no sense.

If the rest of the episode were great then I might forgive it a blitheringly stupid turn of events, but nothing else made up for that foolishness.

I hadn't planned to watch anymore, but then someone on social media raved about how the series really took off in episode 4, which was directed by the guy who did the first Spider-verse movie. So I checked that out. And it was not remotely better than episode 1. Sabine was still stupid, the characters were still bland, and I was generally bored throughout.

Should have gone with my first instinct.

Very solid beginning to the show , I absolutely loved Rebels so this new show starts by introducing all the characters very familiar ones as well as new , looks fantastic as well with lots of throw backs to StarWars Rebels , Ahsoka Tano looks great just as she has done in previous live action shows but now add Chopper , Sabine and dare I say the extremely sexy General Hera Syndula , damn Mary Elizabeth Winstead looks hot as hell as a Twi-lek , absolutely love the Lothal cat , The late Ray Stevenson holds the screen extremely well and has enough menace and melancholy about him for his character to hold your interest , some scenes are a touch slow but I hope it's just taking its time to build the story for us , Overall I'm highly anticipating the next episodes and if the first two are anything to judge by it looks like Ahsoka is gonna be a pretty special Dave Filoni addition to the StarWars galaxy , Can't wait for the Rebels crew to be back together but I'm guessing I'm gonna have to wait a while for that reunion scene .

So far this isn't the worst Star Wars show/movie out there, but it's certainly not amazing either.

The good: It's very pretty

The mediocre: The music The plot The villains

The bad: The acting The writing

Nothing feels like people having an actual conversation, it all feels like people reading lines at each other.

The thing with the map they are trying to find feels like it's pulled directly out of the sequel trilogy. Why is there a map to someone's current location hidden in some ancient ruins behind several layers of old mechanisms you have to turn to unlock? It's the classic error of thinking of something you think will look cool and then finding a silly excuse to do it.

And then there's the whole "the force is female" thing. So far it doesn't really hurt the show, because most of the characters are established and well liked, but you can't help but notice and remember that it's because if Disney's stupid politics, and it just can't help hurting the immersion of the show.

The lightssaber choreography seems really mediocre as well. It's full of the standard up close and obscure shots and cuts, that they do when they have no choice, because it would look terrible otherwise.

The last annoyance so far is the female villain. Maybe it will get better of we get to know her, but her only trait so far is her ability to have a complete deadpan look no matter what's going on in the scene. It's the most lazy way possible to try to make a villain look evil.

I hope the show will get better and part 2 was definitely better than part 1, so there's still hope for the show.
