The first episode of The Mandalorian is a nostalgic blast that's thrilling, fun, and respectful of its roots, which we can't say about all things Star Wars these days. But it's the perfect fit of its western tone that makes it great. Read full review

Left with mostly just his voice to act with, Pascal gives Mando some hints of snarkiness, if not humor; by and large, he comes off as a business-first ballbuster. (And truth be told, no one wants a quippy Mandalorian.) Weathers and Herzog fit comfortably into this world, in their brief intros, and it’d be great to see more of Nolte’s Kuiil. Read full review

The Mandalorian offers gorgeous production design, vivid world-building, an adorable baby creature and a hilariously broad performance by far-out filmmaker Werner Herzog in a small but memorable villain role. Though the first three episodes move slowly, the combination of glacial plot development and ample combat gives them a sort of comic-book feel. Read full review

The Mandalorian, which moves along nice and briskly as the Mandalorian is given yet another asset of even greater import to hunt down and capture. It’s so brisk, however, that we don’t get much of a sense of our main character. ... The episode’s ending — which, again, unlike Twitter, I will not spoil here — also leaves you very curious to see what happens next. Read full review

A TV show needs relationships; a cast of ciphers and loners too isolated to trust anyone or even give us their names might wear thin fast. The episode’s tone also unfolds rather herky-jerkily, wheeling from light to grim, tragic to weird, in a way that often feels more stilted than natural. But there is already so much to enjoy. The show looks and sounds great, with eerie flutes and electronic strings bestowing both retro and futuristic vibes. Read full review

The premiere is still fun and packed with technical marvels that devoted Star Wars fans never could have even fathomed appearing on TV a decade ago. It's just small. Read full review

39 minutes of mediocre Star Wars. The Mandalorian, which was written by Jon Favreau and directed by The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels veteran Dave Filoni, looks great—or at least very much like something on which Disney spent one-eighth of the eight-episode season’s $100 million budget. But it feels uninspired from its very first scene. Read full review

I'm enjoying the slow start of it. It's still holding my attention and the filming is beautiful. I am enjoying the lack of dialog because it fits. The fact that each episode comes out every Friday it makes it easy to keep up to date. Excited to see where this goes

Even when the first scene can give you the sense that you are going to see another retelling of the same star wars story, the strength of the show is actually that it is not original star wars with a younger cast like in the Disney movies. Also the costumes and locations don't look cheap,Even when the first scene can give you the sense that you are going to see another retelling of the same star wars story, the strength of the show is actually that it is not original star wars with a younger cast like in the Disney movies.

Decent, few issues for how massive the budget was but it’s star wars so. No way this is a 9+ by any means so critics were definitely bribed.
