May 31, 2022For the first two episodes i think it was ok. I hope that the last four episodes will get better.

Jun 6, 2022I didn't know the series had started until the controversy. I'm so happy now because I have binge watched 3 episodes. Not all characters are likeable but that is normal in any story. This FEELS like an old school Star Wars movie and I'm here for it. I still remember going to the theater at the age of 7 and watching the first one on the big screen. I'm all in.

Jun 14, 2022Aside from some weird logic and shaky cinematography, Obi-Wan Kenobi is narratively strong, bolstered by great performances and the quality special effects one has come to expect from Lucasfilm.

Jun 2, 2022I thought it was great, 7.5-8.0/10 based on the first three episodes, with room for improvement. Ignore the Metacritic trolls; the critics have this about right.
-
Jun 3, 2022I really enjoy the this far. It shows you a broken man long after his glory. He’s lost everything, his eyes are on one goal. Yet gets pulled out of that roll for the possible better future.
-
Jun 3, 2022Love seeing the old cast as well as all the new faces. Shoutout to the art department for the amazing sets and costuming. Really enjoying it!
-
Jun 3, 2022Hello there! Great show so far, great characters and actors, in my opinion this is the best star wars mini series to date.
-
Jun 2, 2022Strong acting helps to elevate a fairly generic story. The action scenes will hopefully improve as the episodes progresses as they are the weakest parts.
-
Jun 3, 2022Well acted and wonderfully casted. Obi Wan hits all the marks for real Star Wars fans.
-
Jun 3, 2022I am loving this show! Can't wait for the next episode. Showing the effect that Anakin's falling to the dark side has on Obi is great. We get to see that not only Anakin was affected but so was Obi. We can sense his guilt at failing Anakin.
-
Jun 3, 2022Everything I was hoping for in Star Wars series about Kenobi! Highly recommended if you are true fan of Star Wars and the Prequel movies and characters.

Jun 3, 2022Don't listen to the trolls. The series is great. Much better Star Wars story than the new movies. It makes me feel like a kid again/

Jun 3, 2022Don’t let the Fandom Menace fool you into thinking this show is no good. It’s a masterpiece that isn’t pushing any agenda or ideals like other SW properties have been accused of.
The only controversy associated with this series is the viewership that call themselves SW fans, and push their own agenda instead of enjoying a great show. -
Jun 3, 2022Honestly this show has been bomb as **** Me and My dad are both star wars fans and we’re both loving it, in fact I even dare say it’s fixed mine and his relationship.
-
Jun 3, 2022Great Show!!! Looking forward to future episodes!!! Loving all these different Star Wars shows! Really looking forward to the continuation of Star Wars Rebels with the Ahsoka series!!

Jun 3, 2022OMG!!! This show is amazing I love the way that vader is portrayed and Reva is a badass
-
Jun 3, 2022This show is amazing! Granted I am a Star Wars geek but it re-fueled my passion for the fandom. Ewan McGregor and the rest of the cast is phenomenal. I also think Moses Ingram, a new addition to the Star Wars Universe is a great actor! Thak You for this incredible series!
-
Jun 3, 2022The negative reviews are just fake accounts that are mad about what was said. This show is the BEST!
-
Jun 3, 2022Really enjoying the cast and all the new lore being added! Great to see such classic Star Wars being made awesome.

Jun 3, 2022By far the best Star Wars show so far. Ewan is brilliant as always and the tone is much darker than anything since ROTS.
-
Jun 3, 2022This show is incredible. It’s even easier to rewatch than Mandalorian - which at the time was the best recent thing Star Wars had released. The releases keep getting better and it’s clear the future of Star Wars is TV
-
Jun 3, 2022Honestly, a series I always wanted, to see how broken Kenobi became to be Ben. It has everything needed for nostalgia of the prequels that I grew up with.
-
Jun 3, 2022It’s great to see what “Ben” was doing while Luke was growing up. I’m 3 episodes in and can’t wait for the second half.

-
Obi-Wan had a larger problem: It was dumb as a rock. Simple rules of spatial logic went out the window. Main characters kept almost killing each other, and then walking away long enough for their wounded opponent could recover.
-
McGregor is wholly up to the challenge of shouldering the emotional weight of this series, which feels less like a cynical cash grab (despite being that) than a natural continuation of the saga that Lucas crafted more than two decades ago.
-
Ewan McGregor was last seen as Obi-Wan, he brings more depth, more of a world-weary wisdom to the role. ... As is the case with many a “Star Wars” title, the dialogue sometimes borders on the corny, but director Deborah Chow (“The Mandalorian”) has a keen sense of pacing and a distinct visual style that holds our interest even in the quieter moments. “Obi-Wan Kenobi” is off to a roaring start.
