No martial arts in Star Wars ever again please. And before you brain fart fencing with lazer swords is not action movie martial arts.

And before you brain fart fencing with lazer swords is not action movie martial arts. All the bad lazer sword fights are inspired by those mouth breathers, the good ones aren't. No cyber punk in Star Wars. Star Wars begins with a simple premise. "a long time ago in a galaxy far far away". Above all else it shouldn't care about modern earthly issues or cultures or movie genres. These little inclusions of feels erode away at the foundations of what makes this universe cool and destroys this show. Utterly.
Also the art direction is stunningly bad . Just look at how much better the animatic paintings look than the photography. Finally, The show fails to establish ANY scope or consequnce so it just feels pointless and cheesy. Bad scrpt is to blame there. Being cool REQUIRES stakes. To put that in perspective, weapons seem to make things hurt LESS in this show as often as more. It's just dumb around.… Expand

Star Wars has never felt so tiny as the whole thing happens on Tatooine on what appears to be a very budget-limited amount of sets and locations. So much of this makes no sense. The cheezy teenagers supposedly can't find work and live in the slums, yet have what appears to be very expensive hobbies and equipment. Where are Jabba's minions? How can Boba Fett presume to take control without anything backing him up? Why does he want to do this? Why stay on Tatooine? This story is all over the place and struggling to find purpose and emotional oomph. For me Star Wars has always been about planet-hopping, novelty, and interesting new things to take in. This feels like an on-going re-hash of the same creatures, scenery, settings, and even ideas such as strangling a monster with its own chains. This is falling very short of the creative magic of the original films. Boba Fett is coming across as a rather dull, nice guy who, in no way feels like the guy waling around Empire Strikes Back or kicking ass in the comics. This story concept was a very bad mis-calculation and represents a massive missed-opportunity. Star Wars is operating under the continuing belief that if it has Banthas, Jawas, sand dunes, and characters that look like a Mandalorian, then fans will gobble it up. It's the ambitious creativity working towards creating something fresh and exciting that makes Star Wars great; not rehashing things that we loved because it was new and exciting in the past.… Expand

However, the gamemaster had one condition: He had to start back at level 1. Nobody would respect him and he'd have to work with the saddest losers imaginable. None of his abilities would work until he had reached certain leveling thresholds and he'd only be as smart and as badass as the player managed to portray him.

So... Boba is now en par with a womprat. Great job. Lucky for him, everyone else is as dumb as a bowl of grits, too.… Expand

But where the prequels have some campy fun to them, Boba Fett is simply unpleasant and strange.
Just watched the finale and it makes the end of GoT look like Shakespeare. Did an AI write this? Still one point for how great it looks and for letting me know what watching tv with head trauma must be like.
I have watched boring shows and bad ones, but I never saw a train wreck like this. If they had stopped at any point and just showed their budged slowly burning, it would have been a better show. More honest, too. Seriously, wtf?
So let me correct myself, this isn't the prequels, this is Return of Skywalker. An incoherent mess, where the biggest accomplishment is that you can't say for sure how much is incompetence and how much is cynicism.… Expand

The biggest Problem with "The Book of Boba Fett" is that Boba is not the Boba you expect. from the bas ass Bounty Hunter we all know and love is nothing left, this Boba is a soft nice guy, who wouldnt do any harm to no one, ironically lookingThe biggest Problem with "The Book of Boba Fett" is that Boba is not the Boba you expect. from the bas ass Bounty Hunter we all know and love is nothing left, this Boba is a soft nice guy, who wouldnt do any harm to no one, ironically looking at his behavior, i thought i look at captain Rex from Star Wars the Clone Wars. The idea for the show is very interesting, the most dangerous Bounty Hunter in the galaxy becomes a crime lord, this is pretty interesting and fresh to the Star Wars universe because this time we could get a Gangstar show, and explore more of the criminal world of star wars. However this is no such thing. The first two episodes are mostly retrospections, where Boba, after escaping the Sarlaac lives by the Tuskens, and when we are in the present days, Boba does absoluteley nothing. He just walks around the Town saying he is now the Boss around here and thats it. If he gets Attacked he gets his Ass beat and Fennec has to do all of the fighting. There is also many wasted potential, because two Hutts are claiming Jabbas territory, which Boba now controlls for themselfes, they even try to assasinate Boba, but after that they just go away because the Pykes are coming and leave the territory to Boba without any actuall fight. So there are two episodes very boring episodes where actually nothing happens. In the third episode, Boba get notified that a gang of cyberpunk teens on motorcycles are robbing someone who is under the protection of Boba as a Daimyo. When Boba talks to this gang, they get angry and disrespecting, so Boba deals with them like the Crime Lord he wants to be right? Wrong. He just says "You wanna work? then work for me" and this gang just "ok". I mentioned earlier that the Hutts wanted to assasinate Boba, they do this in the third episode, they hired a Wookie Bounty Hunter which just beat his ass. Boba has to be rescued by his new gang like a complete amateur, as i said from the Bad ass Bounty Hunter is nothing there. After the assasin is defeated the Hutts are saying that they are leaving this planet because the pykes are coming. This is also dumb because the Hutts would better fit as Antagonists then the Pykes in this show. What happens with the Wookie Assasin? He just gets recruited. This is the third time by now that somethink like this happens. First time were with the gamorean guards which i didnt mention. They want to stay loyal to their previous lord, so Boba prais their loyalty and after that the gameorians just join Boba. They just like "ok now we will serve you know, because why not". The second time where with this Cyberpunk gang i mentioned and now with the Wookie. At the end of the episode they have to hunt down one of the mayors assistents, because the mayor hired assasins to kill Boba. The Assistant flees in his car, what does Boba? Uses his jet pack to catch the fugitive? No, he does nothing again and sends his Cyberpunk gang after him. The chase scene was also really bad. They were so slow that i thought these are just kids, chasing themselves on Bikes. And then the episode ends. Again a very boring episode. The fourth episode is (except for the last five minutes) completely a retrospection. It shows us how Boba met Fennec, how he stole the Slave 1 from jabbas palast and how he searched for his Armor. This isnt a bad idea, if it was the first episode of the show, but now its to late and again it is not the gangster show which was shown in the trailers. On the end Boba says that he needs men for the upcoming war with the pykes and the mando music appears. So the first four episodes were boring, and without anything that really happens. Now the fifth and sixt episodes are not even a Boba Fett show anymore, it is just a setup for Mandalorian Season 3. Now we could expect that Mando will return, the problem is that in the fifth episode Boba doesnt appear and it focus only on Mando. The first half at least something happens but in the second half, they just build for Din a new ship after which comes nothing but easter eggs on previous Star Wars projects. Still this was the best episode so far but it was still a lame episode. The sixth episode is just fan service and nothing more. We are shown how grogu gets trained by Luke, Ahsoke appears from nowhere without areason, the Marshall from Mando season 2 appears, he even gets a Western Stand-off whith Cad Bane at the end, which is to be fair very cool scene. Cad Bane is also next to Mando the only guest appearence which makes sense, because he got a history with Boba. What does Boba in this episode? Nothing. He gets just like 20 seconds screen time and thats it. What with the Men they need to recruit for the upcoming War? Mando recruits them, the citicens of mos espa. It doesnt make sense, you cannot tell me that Boba cant just hire some Bounty Hunters like Bossk for example. In the last episode the war comes and this is a good episode But it does not rescue the show. summing up this Series is just a huge Dissapointment… Expand

This little lost lamb appears to be out of his depth in this new world of killers and theives, blundering his way through many trials, all of which happen to include flashbacks that seem to show a lesson not learned by past experiences. This is an extremely clumsy slog through the birth of a criminal empire, harkening back to the early seasons of The Startup, but without the jokes,or any insider knowledge.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Book of Boba Fett is the most poorly written live action Star Wars content since the prequels. A character who was literally working for Darth Vader is presented as having a heart of gold with no motivation or internal conflict. A grandpa with veneers. The great actors can’t salvage poor writing. Chapter 1 portrays Boba and Fennec come across as one dimensional morons who think they can run a criminal empire by walking around with two guards and petitioning the mayor of a backwater city. Chapter 2 revives the Dave Filoni favorite trope of “training the villagers.”

Chapter 3 is so horrible, with the power ranger vespa gang, that even die hard fans who rationalize poor writing are struggling to enjoy the episode.… Expand

The version we get in this latest series is so very far removed from Boba Fetts character, it’s embarrassing. He does things that make no sense, like wanting to be a crime lord, teaming up with a bunch of robotic teens on colourful hover bikes that somehow aren’t intimidated by the legend of Boba Fett. It’s as if the characters in this story and writers forgot who this character was. He acts like an excited child, he no longer gives off the silent, efficient and cool demeanour he once had. They should’ve have left him as a cameo in The Mandalorian, because that at least was great.… Expand

Too few things get explained, the plot is painstakingly slow, and the world (unlike in The Mandalorian) feels so small and contained, namely to plotting the whole show on Tattoine (which, for the love of god, show us some other planets PLEASE). Boba Fett's character takes a partial 180, which I don't mind too much given he didn't have much character in the movies, but I understand why it would upset fans. The new characters also really don't land and are totally forgettable, unlike in the Mandalorian. Hopefully Disney course-corrects for Kenobi and actually hires some writers that can tell a fun, engaging story with some excellent characters to boot, cause this show ain't it chief.… Expand

The overall writing and direction was terrible and boring. It wasn’t thought through whatsoever. Boba Fett somehow takes over an entire city with just one other person. Then they decide they need “muscle” for a war and they only have a handful of people…it’s just pathetic. The action scenes didn’t make sense int he final episode. There were giant droids with forcefields that clearly couldn’t penetrated by blasters but everyone just kept shooting without even trying to come up with a plan.

Sorry, not of this character, of Boba Fett not Jake Fett. They took the most badass and feared bounty hunter in the galaxy and made him a Disney Princess with morals and compassion. What on the Outer Rim was that? It is disrespectful of the lore of this franchise. Then they introduced those clown like characters that feel totally out of context and out of a Cyberpunk no budget fan film on YouTube. Not to mention the classic copy paste strong woman character that comes out with a totally arrogant attitude and mocks the hero of the show, then Jake Fett proceeds to bow before her and side with these Power Rangers. This franchise has started to have more bad content than good content and if Disney will milk it forever and destroy it forever instead of letting it die, maybe I should be the one to let it die for myself and completely ignore it from now on.… Expand

Boba Fett feels like a shark with all his teeth stripped out. Amazing Cameos by some comic fan favorite sees an uneventful and comical defeat at the hands of a mod vespa riding gang of actors who look more fit staring in a GAP ad than in the deserts of Tatooine. It feels like one of the worst stylistic choices seen in Star Wars in sometime. With those critique out of the way I do give the series credit of giving the Tusken Raiders a bit more depth. The characters and aliens in the series are all beautifully styled and integrated. I hope to see more from the series and happily update my review if in the following episodes the series corrects some of these satirical feeling choices.… Expand

The flashbacks don’t provide anything to the “current” plot line. The raiders don’t even get names! The side characters are lame, and the story isn’t even good enough for a first draft.

In the final battle, I think there was a single “good guy” that was killed, even with a whole army, and droids with impenetrable shields. Hot mess of garbage, with a single decent Mandalorian episode thrown in there in an attempt to fool you into thinking something was there.… Expand

This show is so incredibly bad. What a let down. The directing, editing, acting and Cgi is so poor, hard to believe.

If you take away episodes 5 and 6 (which are Mandalorian s3) then this tv show has no sence. Nothing is happening in this show. It's just useless. Besides the grafics are horrible.

It's just useless. Besides the grafics are horrible. Everything looks cheap. Especially dialogues. Boba Fett is ruined as a character. These series must have been rated 6+.
It's so childish. I'm very angry… Expand

With Boba Fett, Disney is fueling the Star Wars brand again in Marvel superhero depths. The silent bounty hunter has become an emotional superhero who fights ninjas with laser shields. Who can come up with something like that? A Marvel Writer? Not only badly written, no everything else is bad too! When light shines through the plastic of the helmet and takes away any immersion, where are you then? Oh yes Disney +. Thanks to Disney, the whole brand is thrown into the soulless and mindless trash can to make money. the next bad series are already planned and the next one is the talented Deborah Chowlet off steam obi-wan… Expand

I really, really wanted to like this. I genuinely tried, but the story is just SO lame. We've got a whole galaxy full of unlimited possibilities, and for some reason we just can't seem to get away from stupid frickin Tatooine. Yes, I get it,I really, really wanted to like this. I genuinely tried, but the story is just SO lame. We've got a whole galaxy full of unlimited possibilities, and for some reason we just can't seem to get away from stupid frickin Tatooine. Yes, I get it, that's the last place we saw Boba Fett and we needed to see how he escaped the Sarlac pit, but why would he stay on Tatooine and become a tribal warlord? It doesn't make sense. It would have been way cooler if he got out of the sand and called Slave One and got back to business; and not the story we got instead. We already saw something pretty similar on The Mandalorian (another 'ALMOST there but not quite' show in my opinion.), and although there were some cool ideas and visuals, the story is completely retreaded and unoriginal, like everything else Disney does nowadays. Just more safe, unoriginal member berries. What an absolute waste.… Expand

Give us drama, mystery, smart dialogue, new ideas. Don't get me wrong, the worldbuilding is spot on and you can tell this is done by people who care about star wars... But it's like the dialog and plotting was made by an AI that was fed keywoards like "cowboy", "kurosawa" and "fan service". Even the cameos... Especially the cameos are SO. STIFF. It's like script writing 101. Dave Filoni has alot of heart but please, invite some more writers to the room.… Expand

I count myself among the fans who were fascinated by Boba Fett from the very beginning. Who is this mysterious bounty hunter who is allowed to take Han Solo away just like that? I also always liked Boba in the later movies, books or series. II count myself among the fans who were fascinated by Boba Fett from the very beginning. Who is this mysterious bounty hunter who is allowed to take Han Solo away just like that? I also always liked Boba in the later movies, books or series. I also wish Star Wars 1313 had never been set. But well, that's another dilemma. The Book of Boba Fett, however, does make me wonder. Because as cool as Boba is, he's not yet suitable as a protagonist in the first episode. The taciturn warrior, who is a bit evil and a bit sweet, but otherwise contributes little, doesn't exactly captivate me in front of the screen. Especially since Boba hasn't had a chance to really shine yet. His performance in The Mandalorian was more impressive there.

Aside from Boba, there hasn't been much to put the series in a good position yet either. Sure, I'm dying to see more of the Underworld. But the exit sequence just before the credits didn't manage to necessarily get me fired up for the release of the next episode. Let's see if the subsequent episodes can turn the thrust vector control around again.… Expand

The directing, editing, and some of the CGI is poor. The show is mostly back-story, to turn Boba from evil and strong into caring and weak. He needs slight girls to save him all the time, and he cannot remember to use the equipment logically due to contrived convenience. The plot holes, such as flame thrower in an enclosed space in a suit that is at least half cloth, are the main elements. Even if you can forgive all of that, the poor editing where characters are in different poses or locations between shots is inexcusable. Enjoy the mystery boxes and the redemption of Boba into a hero.… Expand

The acting, plot, fight sequences, the Vespa team, the comically bad wookie, and it goes on and on. Parts of it felt so off you had to wonder if it was made by film students. What made it more jarring is that there were enough elements of Star Wars to give you just a bit of hope - before it was snatched away. It would have been better if they never released this series. It made me seriously consider ending my Disney subscription.… Expand

An awful boring storyline that is just far stretched. Choreography was pretty bad, fights felt really poorly rehearsed. Was really hoping for an intriguing first episode and got the opposite.

Unfortunately, not even Temura can escape the flushing pit as each new episode story unfolds.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Like, Boba Fett is the weakest crime boss ever. He hires a lame Mod gang riding space scooters. Doesn't kill the wookie that almost successfully assassinates him. Tries to make peace with Hutts that are clearly out for his blood (twice). He's like an 80's Saturday morning cartoon version of a crime boss. Weak acting, an unutterably stupid story.… Expand

People act like Filoni is the savior of Star Wars but this proves that he is not. His stories are afraid to go anywhere and have no teeth. He's ruining character backstories and shoehorning his own characters needlessly into stories just like Lucas did with the prequels.
Star Wars needs its Kevin Fiege and Filoni ain't it.… Expand

The episodes in which Boba didn't appear or had hardly any screentime were the best. Which is not very good for a series called "The Book of Boba Fett".

Nevertheless, the series was all in all okay, but I will definitely not watch it again.

Worst writing and direction I've ever seen. Waste of a good character. The Mando episodes were cool but not a good enough excuse to endure the torture. The whole show had dr.seuss type vibes
