Hate it. So the message of Andor is it's ok to commit murder as long as it for the benefit of the cause. So the ends justify the means. Great Messaging Disney. That is not what Star Wars is about.

Probably the best disney star wars show to release since the mandalorian.

If you liked 'Rogue One', you'll likely enjoy this prequel (set five years before Rogue One). Some familiar people, places and creatures, but also some unfamiliar ones. I personally love the flashbacks to Cassian's childhood. It helps to flesh out his character and explain how he became the person that he did. It's gritty and realistic with great cinematography. Some might say it's slow, but do yourself a favour and watch the first three episodes in close succession... as they really do fit …

Great show so far, I do have problems with the Rebel's morals but I am enjoying so far!

The one and only Star Wars TV/movie story that is actually good and not just a visual spectacle. Yeah, I said that. Don't fight me though. I have only ever watched Star Wars shows and movies for the visuals and fight scenes. Never have I actually been captured by the stories. But Andor... it's just on a whole different level. Well done to the writers here. Some of the best non-movie visuals ever as well!

"Star Wars: Andor" takes a different approach to the galaxy far, far away. It's not about lightsaber duels or epic space battles, but rather the gritty reality of rebellion. This series delves into the everyday struggles of people fighting for a cause, and it does so with a refreshing realism that resonated with me deeply. As a Star Wars fan, I've always been drawn to the core philosophy of the franchise – the constant struggle between good and evil, the reminder that life is about making cho…

"Andor" functions as a gritty tale of war and politics but it fails to fit into the Star Wars universe. Take away the storm troopers, the X-Wings and the general Star Wars trappings and Andor is hard to distinguish from any other series, that mixes a slow burn political drama and warfare. Its simply too harsh, cruel and gritty to merge comfortably into the lively, larger than life, swashbuckling world, that George Lucas crafted so well, back in the late 1970's. The result is a disco…

Andor is one of the most important pieces of television to come out of this decade. Despite its connections to one of media's mega franchises Andor grows beyond what it means to be part of Star Wars and delivers something that expands its world in so many ways. Star Wars has never felt so real, intense and emotionally resonate. The things this show is saying are all so important to the world, it's past, present and future. Andor's characters are also simply sublime, brought beautifully to the sc…
