Andor

Hate it. So the message of Andor is it's ok to commit murder as long as it for the benefit of the cause. So the ends justify the means. Great Messaging Disney. That is not what Star Wars is about.

Probably the best disney star wars show to release since the mandalorian.

If you liked 'Rogue One', you'll likely enjoy this prequel (set five years before Rogue One). Some familiar people, places and creatures, but also some unfamiliar ones. I personally love the flashbacks to Cassian's childhood. It helps to flesh out his character and explain how he became the person that he did. It's gritty and realistic with great cinematography. Some might say it's slow, but do yourself a favour and watch the first three episodes in close succession... as they really do fit together as a movie length introduction to the series.

Great show so far, I do have problems with the Rebel's morals but I am enjoying so far!

The one and only Star Wars TV/movie story that is actually good and not just a visual spectacle. Yeah, I said that. Don't fight me though.

I have only ever watched Star Wars shows and movies for the visuals and fight scenes. Never have I actually been captured by the stories.

But Andor... it's just on a whole different level. Well done to the writers here. Some of the best non-movie visuals ever as well!

"Star Wars: Andor" takes a different approach to the galaxy far, far away. It's not about lightsaber duels or epic space battles, but rather the gritty reality of rebellion. This series delves into the everyday struggles of people fighting for a cause, and it does so with a refreshing realism that resonated with me deeply.

As a Star Wars fan, I've always been drawn to the core philosophy of the franchise the constant struggle between good and evil, the reminder that life is about making choices and aligning yourself with one side or the other. "Andor" embraces this theme, but instead of showcasing grand battles and heroic deeds, it examines the everyday compromises and sacrifices that fuel a rebellion.

Cassian Andor, the series prota...

"Andor" functions as a gritty tale of war and politics but it fails to fit into the Star Wars universe.

Take away the storm troopers, the X-Wings and the general Star Wars trappings and Andor is hard to distinguish from any other series, that mixes a slow burn political drama and warfare.

Its simply too harsh, cruel and gritty to merge comfortably into the lively, larger than life, swashbuckling world, that George Lucas crafted so well, back in the late 1970's.

The result is a discordant series, that, like aspects of latter day Star Trek series, is simply too cynical, for this franchise.

In summary, if you want a political military drama in space, I suppose this will do. That said, for those of us old enough to have come, w...
