    This isn't the show you're looking for. Horribly bad generic writing. Obnoxiously low budget that's overpolished. But hey if you like dollar store steak with a Boba Fett sticker on it then this is the show for you!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What the hell have I just seen? Sorry guys, but this thing is just not working. My main points so far:

    - Main character is just not believable as a hero or action hero, feels wooden and old, sad to look at. I like Temuera Morrison, but he just can't pull this of, you literally feel his wish to retire.

    - There is no logic in this show, how should declaring yourself a crime lord work with basically 2 people? The sand people are beyond ueseless, the 2 guards can't do anything... Why should anyone pay tribute? Out of pity? The motor scooter gang is beyond ridiculous and the recruiting scene had me cringe really hard. How did he survive the Wookie attack? A wookie can tear you apart without even breaking a sweat.

    - Show looks cheap, lot of immersion breaking stuff like these power ranger Vespas. Most Tatooine shots feels like recycled material from the original trilogy. That scooter chase scene felt so incredibly slow. What was the plan behind attacking the train, there was no logic to it.

    - What is the point of the story? What is this about? 3 episodes in and I have no idea. What is the goal of the character, what is the heros journey?

    I'll probably see a few more out of boredom (thanks covid) but if this is the future of Star Wars I'm really worried. Obi Wan Kenobi, you are my only hope

    If you’ve seen any of the Disney Star Wars properties you know exactly how awful this show is before even pushing play.

    Disney continues to mess up Star Wars. Morrison and Wen do fine and Rodriguez makes the most of his budget as he's always done, but the writing and world-building are so stupid and ludicrous. The first few minutes alone involving the Sarlacc are poorly done. The stuff with the Tusken Raiders literally put me to sleep. There is no mention of the Hutts trying to retake the planet, when theyDisney continues to mess up Star Wars.

There is no mention of the Hutts trying to retake the planet, when they are a family-run crime syndicate who don't give up power so lightly. This show takes the huge world established in Star Wars and shrinks it down to a few sets and establishments. Note to the writers: Jabba and his family ran the whole planet, not just Mos Espa! None of the threats established seem interesting in the slightest. It is obvious that the budget was not there for this show to have any real stakes aside from more random subplots. I sense a middling threat-of-the-week structure that completely misuses and misunderstands the character. Expand

    Episode 3 : Boba Fett and the woke Hipsterz. WTF are you doing Disney ? WTF ?! (The wookie is badass btw).

    A very mediocre show, with a weak storyline. The characters are unlikable. Forgettable.

    Wow, this was bad, not worth the watch at all. The only good episodes were with the Mandalorian, Boba Fett did not stick to the cannon at all, so disappointing.

    Weaker than Mandalorian in every way. The writing is mediocre to bad, the acting is unimpressive, and the story is not interesting. Just watch Mandalorian and skip this.

    The show demystifies him in the workmanlike way that today’s cinematic universes inevitably treat their bit players: by turning them into boring old heroes. ... But look to the margins, to the creatures who aren’t saying much, for the saga’s future, because they still hold the promise of stories that, just maybe, we haven’t been told before.

    A new series with no true identity. Even the concept art over the end credits can’t escape feeling borrowed from The Mandalorian. This premiere isn’t a total disaster, hinting at a grander crime saga to come. But there’s just nothing to chew on from this first chapter of The Book of Boba Fett.

    The Book Of Boba Fett continues this run of quality, giving us insight into a character that has long fascinated fans of the franchise. ... Morrison gives Fett a sense of regal humanity that makes his desire to reform the galaxy’s underworld under his watch plausible. And Wen, as she’s proven in the MCU, kicks major ass as Shand. Both bring the requisite senses of humor to their roles.
