Listen…since the Disney Era began with the Saga…some of the movies and shows have been polarizing for audiences. I get it. But this series is absolutely awesome. It is an edge-of-your-seat spinoff of the excellent, standalone, Star Wars film Rogue One (which was well-received from critics and audiences alike).

Writer/Director Tony Gilroy (the film-maker behind the Jason Bourne movie series and the heralded picture Michael Clayton) has done a masterful job at making this Star Wars series feel more complex…filled with paranoia and dread and ambition and anxiety and hope. The show has espionage and assassinations and robberies and prison escape attempts. It is epic.
