The Acolyte: Revenge/Justice (2024)
Season 1, Episode 2
5/10
A show on par with book of boba fett and ahsoka
5 June 2024
There seems to be 2 types of Star Wars live action:
  • Andor, the mandalorian season 1-2
OR
  • kenobi, book of boba fett and ahsoka


This new acolyte show heavily leans towards the latter group. I am holding my opinion, but offering my perspective.

I would say that early to late teens would be the best audience for this show. The acting and script level is on par with Nickelodeon and Disney teen shows.

The plot is very straight forward backed by a script that will state exactly what will happen next.

The fight scenes are very well filmed and coordinated. The feel of it reminded me of watching Kung Fu tv shows as a kid.

The cast is more diverse than ever before. So new audiences will be able to find their own heroes in the Star Wars universe.

Sets and props are stunning. Really this is the part that shines in the show. But I don't think this part has ever been anything but excellent in SW.

This show clearly emphasizes pushing boundaries in a Star Trek like scenes, casting and dialog at times the show seemed like Star Trek entirely but with Star Wars sets. This aspect may make it or break it for you. I know this is a contentious topic. So I'll leave that there.

This episode seemed better than the 1st because one or two characters seemed intriguing to me.
