Who Are You?

This goes beyond Star Wars, beyond sci fi, this was the greatest piece of film, cinema, tv, and movie that I've ever seen. It was perfect. I created my account 30 seconds after finishing the episode to write this. The suspense, the emotion, the pure evil, the story arcs, the character build, everything coming together in a wonderfully beautiful chasm of bedlam, chaos, and struggle. May never see a better piece of cinema ever.

Star Wars has found its edge once again with Andor. If only Boba, Acolyte, and others could've followed the rated-R style of writing in this. As opposed to the recent, PG nonsense.

No words to describe the feeling of watching this episode, but this is peak everything, while writing this I am still processing everything that I witnessed, what a show, what a feeling, simply marvelous.

The brilliance of this resides on the fact that I can't wait to finish this show and rewatch Rogue One and episodes IV through VI, the absolute disgust that the empire representa and ironically the parallels that we actually see in your daily news is just baffling, absolutely frightening yet inspiring.

Tony Gilroy you absolute genius this show is brilliance, it might not feel formulaic but in its very core THIS IS STAR WARS.

One of the best episodes of television I have personally ever seen. The stakes, the tension, the emotion this whole episode were unlike anything I've seen before in Star Wars media. Hours and hours have gone in to building various character arcs for this moment, and safe to say it did not disappoint. You feel the weight of every decision made and so do the characters. I for one am glad to have been here since day one to see this marvel of show become what it is now! 10/10 for me, and I fear Star Wars may never see anything like this again. This is Star Wars at its best, at its peak, and like never before.

The tension alone gives this episode a 10/10. But it's not just that. It's legitimately a perfect episode of television. The writing, the emotion, technical aspects such as visuals and sound, everything is perfect. Honestly rivals "One Way Out" in terms of quality. The build up to the main event has been spectacular. This season might end up being the best series of television of the year, it is that good. The set up was great, and the pay off was even better. It felt so raw throughout the entire episode, one of, if not the most brutal episodes of the show so far. This show has proven once again that it is the best thing Star wars has ever produced. Easy 10/10.

Now I get why the rest of this season was almost entirely buildup. I swear my heart rate was over 100 BPM the whole time.

This episode expertly weaves character moments into an unthinkably tragic event. Star Wars has never explored this territory in this depth and I'm amazed at how well they pull it off in this episode. I had to remind myself as I was writing this review that I just watched an episode of a Star Wars show. Star Wars. Like, you know, Baby Yoda and company.

This episode feels like it was what Andor was for. Getting at the true evil of the Empire, and reminding us that these ideas come from real life. Real people can be this cruel.
