As much as I really don't want to recommend this show to anybody, the fact that you have to watch this show after The Mandalorian Season 2 proves that Disney probably knew that this show was bad and made it mandatory to watch it to get caughtAs much as I really don't want to recommend this show to anybody, the fact that you have to watch this show after The Mandalorian Season 2 proves that Disney probably knew that this show was bad and made it mandatory to watch it to get caught up in the series in order to make back their money on the series. Since I'm not exactly going to be pulling any punches on the negatives, the few positives I have for this show primarily revolve around great action sequences, great performances all across the board, and an overall decent enough soundtrack. The first thing I can easily say about why I didn't enjoy this show despite the fact it's about Boba Fett, it doesn't focus NEARLY enough on him to actually be about him and even when he is in action, he feels so nurtured and stripped of what he was like in the OG trilogy and there's no way he changed from a relentless bounty hunter just looking for money to a soft war leader who wants to protect a town he managed to claim ownership from Jabba the Hut since the show never explored this change of his. To be clear, Din from The Mandalorian was the same, but the reason that worked was because he managed to find someone to care about and love thanks to Grogu reminding him of his past self hence we were we there with him up unto the end and it felt so satisfying to see it happen. Speaking of Din and Grogu, one of the episodes was dedicated entirely to him getting Grogu back and people say this was when the show was finally picking up steam and I'm more inclined to disagree since that means we get even less time with Boba and when he got Grogu back, it didn't even feel exciting since it basically made the ending of Season 2 meaningless so no, Din and Grogu coming back in this show didn't make it better but in fact made it so much WORSE considering it meant sacrificing time focusing on Boba even if both characters were excellent here. The rest of the side characters were downright FORGETTABLE with no redeeming qualities to them and just when it looked like they were going to stand out, their time in the spotlight gets stolen at the last minute preventing me from cheering them on and hoping they would win. The main villains aren't even very good either since they aren't nearly present enough in the first 4 episodes to set up tension and create any sort of fear for me to take them seriously and when they do show up to actually create unspeakable horrors, it's already too late since I lost all of my investment in the show a long time ago. So overall, this TV show fails as both a follow-up to The Mandalorian and as a spin-off for Boba Fett and if it wasn't for the fact that you needed to watch it before watching Season 3 of The Mandalorian, I would've easily recommended you stay away from this show no matter what. In the end though, I think you're better off just watching a YouTube video explaining the story of the series because I absolutely cannot recommend The Book of Boba Fett. Expand

The storytelling is extremely slow, in the first couple of episodes not very much is happening. Instead of giving the character of Boba Fett a show in its own right, the show mostly serves to set up the third season of The Mandalorian. I like Mando a lot, but his story should be told in his own show. I guess, Boba Fett was mainly produced to provide content for Disney+ and to take the links between the Star Wars shows to the extreme - but that strategy will probably come to an end anyway. To sum up: Giving Boba a real show with a real story could have been interesting, but using him just as a stirrup keeper seems kind of wasted. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had very low expectations about this series, and unfortunately the experience was far worse than expected.
Writing was unbearable:
- poor dialogues
- overall cheap feeling
- no engagement whatsoever about characters actions, motivations, development (?)
- random and railroaded plot
- poor design choices... What the f**k happened with the design of those ridiculous motorbikes!?

Last and worst two elements that I disliked:
- Temuera Morrison. poor, poor, poor, poor acting skills. Every single time he opened his mouth was a torture.

- Mandalorian 3 drift,I cannot understand why this series, all of a sudden, transformed itself in Mandalorian Season 3. Ok, we're talking about a spin-off product BUT those two episodes were violently out of register. It didn't make any sense to throw to the public so many elements of Mandalorian plot.

Forget about this distorted Boba Fett and move on to far better SW products as Andor.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Should be renamed "The Book of Beta Fett". Turning one of the most feared bounty hunter into a complete chump. The writing is awful, it amounts to Boba asking a bunch of gangsters "hey if I fight the pikes, will you pinky swear that you wont interfere?". The fact that the high point for the series is when the Mandalorian shows up and practically outshines Boba in his own series is laughable. I just hope this is the last chapter for Boba and we never have to experience his character again... Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I still can't comprehend how terrible this series ended up being. The writing was completely miserable and butchered Boba Fett's character beyond belief. The settings were mostly just more of Tatooine, which we've seen plenty of. The only good things I can say about this show are that the episode WITHOUT Boba are actually pretty good. I thought Din Djarin struggling to use the Darksaber really showed the importance of the weapon. But the stuff with Luke and Grogu is the highlight for me. Luke looks way better here than he does in The Mandalorian. I enjoyed how Grogu cast aside his potential as a Jedi to be with his father figure. But those don't even involve Fett at all which shows how awful this series was. I thought a show about Boba Fett had a lot of potential to be an engaging story with clever writing, but I was very, VERY wrong. Expand

Я вижу, что Disney снова идут своим идиотским путём, меняя режиссёров каждую серию. И это ужасно! Неужели то дерьмо которое вылилось на их головы после выхода трёх номерных частей их ничему не научило? Это не ситком, а сериал, нельзя менять режиссёров на каждой серии. Получится полный отстой.
Теперь конкретно о увиденном. Ну графика на высоте, сюжет идет со всем, что я читал и во что играл в разрез, а вот сама так сказать движущая составляющая... Меня крайне удивило поведение Бобы Фетта. Так после освобождения из брюха сарлакка его как бомжа раздевают джавы, даже вырубают ударом в лицо. Это джавы которые своей тени боятся? Потом берут в плен таскены, а за тем избивают как щенка. Это Фетта который как известно знает несколько боевых искусств, прошел спартанскую школу выживания? Может быть вся его сила закючалась в доспехах? Тогда почему он не использует их в бою с наёмниками? И это лучший охотник за головами в галактике? Мне просто показалось, что Моррисону надо бы похудеть да и видно актёр староват стал для этой роли. Сцены с рукопашными сражениями с его участием выглядят нелепо. Но зато добавили помощницу - девчонку которая за него расшвыревает целые взводы элитных десантников... от чего бои становятся не только нелепее, но и смешнее.
Моя оценка средняя.

You can either accept that or just rage quit. This show, it's current rating here, has fallen victim to the same thing that happened to the live action Cowboy Bebop on Netflix. Fanbois, blinded by their nerd rage over changes in canon, knee-jerk give a low rating, as if that will change anything. If you open your mind and just accept the show for what it is, Boba Fett shines as a finely crafted series with a plot that ISN'T a mess, great action and great design. The same is true for Cowboy Bebop, but fools can't see past their indigence. If many want to "protest down-vote" the show, you don't know how BAD things CAN get. We need to support these show runners because they are getting many things right. Is it perfect, no. But IMHO there has been exactly ZERO perfect Star Wars media since the originals. So, it's about perspective. I for one quite enjoyed The Book of Boba Fett. Expand

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.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Kind of meh, but it has its moments. The episodes where Mando and Grogu steal the show are on fire; they're some of the best Star Wars I've seen recently. The rest? Lot of heart, and a lot of iffy writing. I loved the Sand People! Then they all died. Friendly-Crime Lord Fett seems way different than the absolutely badass Fett we saw in Mando season 2. Black Krrsantan starts out seeming ultra metal, and then kind of fizzles into being a push-over. Hopefully they find a better use for Boba (less time in Bacta?) that is more in keeping with the terrifying, mysterious space-villain/anti-hero he was and could be! 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.

After the great 2 seasons of Mandalorian, this is a big step backwards in Star Wars shows. If you ignore how much it butchers Boba Fett as a character, the show is still relatively enjoyable and the final episode is a pretty fun action sequence. It is a shame that they made Boba Fett's show just an advertisement for Mandalorian season 3 rather than create an exciting show centred around the character. 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

That being said, I was veryBoba Fett has always been one of my favorite characters in the Star Wars universe, but he felt underutilized in the original movies despite having one of the coolest backstories and designs of any character. That being said, I was very excited for this new Boba Fett series coming out when it was first teased at the end of the second season of Mando. Unfortunately, this series is a very mixed bag in terms of story quality, CGI, and acting. Boba Fett's character has been more or less completely redone. Instead of the cold, calculating bounty hunter, he's turned into more of a wise old man figure who seeks to solve conflicts through diplomacy rather than blaster fire. This is executed in a less than impressive performance by Temuera Morrison who clearly does not fit the role of either of the personas I just talked about. Honestly, it feels like Morrison was trying his best to hold back his expressive personality. His performance felt natural in the prequels, as Jango was presented as this arrogant and deadly bounty hunter, but Boba's character in this series is the complete opposite. If it wasn't for the helmet, his mediocre performance would have been much more apparent. It doesn't help that the story flipflops back and forth between with story themes and events. You have these moments of retrospection suddenly shift to suspense out of no where. The acting of the other characters is a mixed bag too. Returning faces from Mando are still solid, but the new cast is either mediocre or just down right terrible. Don't even get me started on the Mods. God, wtf were they thinking with those characters. The cheesy action of Star Wars does not compliment the straight up goofy acting by some of the cast and it felt like I was watching some amateur fan movie with some of the scenes. The settings are very well made however, and a lot of references from older movies can be seen in this series which is welcome fan service for long time fans. Tatooine felt alive and not like some ghost town. Certain episodes in particular are also straight up fantastic, but those unfortunately are the ones where Boba Fett is not the main focus (and where the director changes). Overall, I would recommend watching it if you're a casual fan of Star Wars as it's fairly easy to dive into since there's little to know background knowledge of the series necessary outside of watching Mando. 6/10 Expand

-Boba gets the "Cruella re-design job"..so it isn't a cool-bad guy anymore but It is now a p.c. rebel that get bullied from everyone. -Lots of cameo from others S.W series...but barerly introducted and used....so they feels like unnecessary fanservice.
It's a pity.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Could it be stronger - yes with more time and tighter writing. I enjoyed the subplots but tying them together was very weak writing, e.g. you hype up the family of sand people and the transition of Fett from absolute cold stone killer to possibly something else only to twist it but not use it - e.g. kill the Punisher's family, he's not giving out hugs. Glimpses of possible excellence - hope they get a chance to make it stronger with a season 2. Expand

Por el resto, todo está la verdad es que muy bien, desde los guiños al desarrollo de personajes, los cruces con las otras series y momentos del universo, etc. Quizás le hubiera venido bien un capítulo adicional, porque me parece que el final es muy apresurado y no llega a ser muy justificado como sale todo, pero sigue siendo una historia sencilla (como Mandalorian) pero muy bien contada.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was so excited for this character to finally get some real screen time....then I saw the screen and cringed. Wow. For me the worst part is that the best parts of this show aren't even organic to this show. It's Mandalorian. That's just plain sad to me. The show was poorly written and edited. Then add in the amount of cheesyness is just wat too much that it's almost comical. What do they say in Marvel? Tony tells Parker, “If you’re nothing without the suit, then you shouldn’t have it.” Well he proved he shouldn't have it. I was shocked how the series painted him in such a weak way. The female lead was way more of a leader the whole time. I'm sad to see the good old Star wars name slapped on something so poorly put together. I will say, the first 10 minutes and I was so happy and excited....then I felt I must of changed the channel because it switched. Just sad. The King Kong aspect at the end, SMH. Honestly? I had my reservation after the first episode so I looked into the movie history of the other director Robert Rodriguez and I can't say I am surprised. After seeing how Bryce Dallas Howard did the best episode...I wish she had done the entire show and maybe we would of gotten a real Boba Fett and not a McDonald's Kids meal toy. Expand

Fett's action sequences were drastically worse than in The Mandalorian and for whatever reason they turned him into a quip dropping wannabe protection racket gangster (yes they explained why he did it but it's completely out of character). I thought episode 4 was a big improvement and then it turned into Mandalorian season 2.5 which I was all for, I also really don't understand how Robert Rodriguez's episode in Mando was great but they were utter trash here.

For the love of Lucas, Disney, stop being so damn creatively bankrupt by using OG trilogy locations and make some new interesting ones.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The entire series I was hoping it would get better. The best episodes were when Boba Fett wasn’t in them and it was about the madalorian. 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. Don’t even get me started on the punk kids and their scooters. I almost turned it off right when I saw those… 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

It has however enjoyable moments and an excellent set up for Mandalorian season 3. Many expected this to be a show that deals with the crime underworld of Star Wars and Boba Fett being a badass. Both are untrue. Instead a lot of the show is set up for later, backstory is told to much, it feels like filler material and set up for Mandalorian season 3 instead of Book of Boba Fett. The best episode of the season has no Boba Fett in it as example. Boba Fett’s journey is interesting but nothing as awesome as he was in Mandalorian. I thought first he tricks everyone with kindness but it is genuine. This weakens him as character and bites him in the back. Sadly even the teaser at the end of Mandalorian season 2 was better than some episodes. I sound too negative as I already admit that this show has great moments and fan service. For example I like the return of many characters, Boba Fett’s new pet and character that trains it, the backstory how Boba became his stick (I am in the minority here if I read other reviews correct), the final battle and the set up. It is not bad if it would lead to more. I think the show has pacing problems and some episodes end without something mayor happening. While these are not awful the negative feelings accumulate and the questions “When does the good stuff happen?” and “Was Boba Fett always like this?” are in the room. Like I said the “Return of the Mandalorian” episode is a contrast and reminds you what is possible. They do more in this episode than in the 4 Boba Fett episodes before and succeed. I would rate these episode as 10/10 and for most it is in the 9-10/10 range. This weakens the other episodes too or better said the perception. The final episode is great and raises my rating a bit. However it changes not that Boba Fett is not in the top 5 characters in the show and his story is pale in comparison to the Mandalorian or his books that I read. The soundtrack is truly great for me especially the ending theme. Overall I think the show is a missed opportunity and probably the best example for the statement “Mediocre is worse than bad” which I normally do not agree with. However on the positive side I am hyped for Mandalorian season 3. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. **Bit of spoilers!***

I can definitely see the criticism with certain parts of the show and the writing isn't quite as strong as other Star Wars shows (animated or otherwise). There was a certain point mid season that had the lamest chase scene I've ever seen (what were they thinking with those candy-colored mopeds?). However...before the season is over they bring on some really neat characters and fill in quite a bit of story from The Mandalorian. Growing up reading the books about the bounty hunters of the Star Wars universe, it always seemed like the perfect premise for a TV show. No Jedi, just the mercenaries. The Mandalorian definitely did a pretty good (arguably better) job of this concept, but Book of Boba Fett has enough to keep the ball in the air. For instance-Krrsantan might be my new favorite character. I had no idea who he was before this show, but they really took a cool idea from the comics and made him come to life. Same thing with Cad Bane showing up in the last few episodes. A fantastic character from the animated series' that you get to see in a live action show, I was so hyped when he showed up on screen. Fennec Shand also deserves a mention since she holds up a lot of the show. Temuera Morrison is, unfortunately, not a great actor at all. George Lucas picked him for Jango Fett and so now we're stuck with a version of Boba Fett that always sounds stilted and robotic. There is also another pretty weird story choice involving Luke Skywalker. They have a bit of a training montage with Grogu and it's a little cheesy and Luke kind of comes off as a creep rather than a zen master ("let me help you remember" uh...no thanks?). But as the dramatic cliffhanger he gives Grogu an ultimatum-continue to be friends with Mando or become a Jedi, because Jedi can't have emotional attachments. So basically, Luke learned nothing from his father's cautionary tale. The entire galaxy was enslaved because the Jedi council said Anakin couldn't be close with Padme. In the now-defunct expanded book universe, Luke realized this error and even gets married himself. Attachments are good for the Jedi. So this show is basically setting up the same Luke Skywalker who chooses to kill his nephew in his sleep because a he had a vision. They really want to stomp all over that original trilogy, don't they? At any rate, watch the show. Yeah, you won't like Boba Fett. Yeah, you'll think it's like "Dances with Wolves". Yeah, it's got a lot of poorly done effects and people in masks slapping each other. But watch it for Krrsantan. Watch it for Cad Bane. Watch it because it's The Mandalorian Season 2.5. I was glad I didn't give up on it!

Main plot points are introduced, only for it to quickly end. It feels like this was originally the script for the cancelled Boba Fett movie, but they just hastily turned it into a series. You know it's pretty bad when they just throw in a trailer as filler. However there are moments of entertainment, but what ties it all together is an utter mess. 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.

Another instance where I have no idea what the critics are thinking. This is every bit as good as Mandalorian. I think I even like it better. Lots of Godfather I and II themes and nods. Great alien character design.

2 out of 7 episodes which didn't focus on Boba were good. Unfortunately the rest was meh. 1 season is enough for what used to be the baddest bounty hunter in the galaxy but now is just a local government burecrat.

Great stuff, the speed of the show is very inline with the prequels. I think it was a great expansion of the Boba Fett character

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

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well there it is the end of the series. As I expected this show turned out to be a weak parody for Star Wars,despite us viewers seeing there some characters from the franchise, which once again were brought for the sense of nostalgia instead of addressing the main character of the entire show. I won't review the series as it is. My goal here is to show you readers the path of the iconic character and where the creators of this show have brought him.
Allow me to remind you that the character named Boba Fett started as a cold-blooded bounty hunter, famous for his "disintegrations" working for the cruel government and the crime lords. But look! Here in this series he's a good guy with good intentions, who wants to be good because...someone saved his life? Sorry friends, but I'm not buying it. Let's take a closer look at Boba's journey.
-he starts as a son to a famous bounty hunter Jango Fett who's murdered by the jedi in front of him.
-next we see him as he tries to avenge his fathers death. We see the boy struggling for taking innocent lives, and even the lives of soldiers, yet later on he still follows the path of crime, when he attempts to deliever a cargo with the young woman in the box. (Not very nice is it?) Though in the unfinished Clone Wars episodes, we once again see Boba's good side, when he saves innocent people from Cad Bane(who regards only skill and the strength of the individual).

Let's take a moment to summurize. Boba Fett - is a fighter loyal to himself and his unsteady ideals, he is cruel and cold, yet he is always can't stand the murder of the innocents. So you can see that there already some holes in this character. He is able to stand against those who would harm innocent yet later on he would work for those who opress and destroy innocent lives. The character of Boba Fett outside the Original Trilogy is not complex HE IS BADLY WRITTEN.

But let us return to the show. As it progresses we see Boba becoming soft, because some tribe saved his life. And so they got killed. He in return have the strong desire for revenge and in the same time he wants to rule so that atrocitys would never happen again. However his methods suddenly change. He's grown weaker. And I as a viewer ask:"Why?"And the screenwriter responds with:"Just because!" His indifference for lives of his targets and enemy's lives could hardly co-exist with his empathy for the innocents, because you as a viewer still remember who he worked for in the past, so let's be honest here and say that his kindness is brought to us out of nowhere. The screenwriters had a chance to work on previous mistakes to show us the cruel hunter who isn't without mercy to those that won't involve themselves in any struggle, but instead we get cameo's and storylines of other characters of the new canon.
In the show Boba Fett is not the bounty hunter. And he is no savior either considering his desire to rule and recieve tribute for no reason but his strength, which actually makes him a tyrant under the disguise of the man with good intentions. We can make that assumption by taking a look at those who he has surrounded himself with - killers and bounty hunters. So who is Boba Fett? I have no idea. All that I saw was an attempt to show the viewer that he is super good guy because...That is the desire of Dave Filloni, John Favro and the Disney itself.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just bad. At no point was there an attempt at explaining why boba fett went from the most feared bounty hunter, to a milk toast kind hearted old man. The dude gets his ass kicked regularly, and doesn’t know how to think for himself.

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.

As a result: neither stories contain much as the episode playtime is getting constantly devided between these 2 story lines.

the only good thing about this show is that we got more Mando story

It's a great show, seeing so many familiar faces from the clone wars series has given me faith that Dave filoni knows what he is doing and very much respects the series. I'm excited to see what path Grogu picks in the next episode

Some episodes are ok-ish, but sadly this series is pretty bad, boring and will make you sleepy. How Star Wars can shift so rapidly in quality between movies and tv-series is beyond me. Sich a beloved franchise should be handled with some care

Not a perfect Boba Fett story, but an excellent vehicle for superb Star Wars content. It is building the world of Star Wars wonderfully.

Either way they made the main character, Boba Fett, weak old boring. I feel bad for the actor because he is perfect for the part the show is messy but holds until the candy apple speeder scenes...then it's downhill from there... Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Dave Filoni & Jon Favreau always come through in the end, and boy did they deliver! The Book of Boba Fett ties in perfectly following Season 2 of The Mandalorian. Some might say it’s basically Season 3 and I’m good with it. What I love about this series is that it gets better with each episode. And thank god for that because it starts off slow. Very slow. Which is odd considering each episode ranges from 30-50 min instead of a full hour. If we’re only getting 8 episodes, each episode should be at least an hour. That’s my one gripe is that it feels like Disney pinched every penny. But when this show finally takes off, it really takes off. The penultimate episode had me jumping out of my seat. Not going to spoil anything, but be ready for one hell of an entrance by another familiar face (and voice actor) from The Clone Wars. It’s a show about bounty hunters, after all. 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.
