Critics have officially seen the first two episodes of Ahsoka - here’s what they thought.
Even if youve never seen ‘Rebels’ or ‘Clone Wars’ its super easy to follow.
Impressed with the action & how its all story.
No side missions or filler.
Cant wait to see episode 3.
Wish I could watch future episodes on a movie screen."
It’s got those classic Star Wars vibes while also feeling very fresh.
Its a true visual spectacle.
Rosario Dawson is phenomenal as the titular star.
The fight scenes are epic and heart pounding.
The story has a rich history and great themes about second chances and female empowerment."
This is for Rebels what I’d hoped ‘Obi-Wan’ would’ve been for the Prequels.
Rosario Dawson shines, but it’s Natasha Liu Bordizzo’s Sabine who blew me away.
Ahsoka is the Disney+ Jedi epic fans have been waiting for.
Love the focus on Sabine Wren, but can see where casuals get lost."
Slower paced than expected but still enthralling for this ‘Rebels’ fan.
Natasha Liu Bordizzo is my early MVP."
Otherwise, it moves slowly but with a great score and occasional action scenes carrying.
Optimistic for an exciting series with heavy lifting done in first two eps."
There’s a lot of narrative hand-holding early on but the plot still moves pretty fast.
The new villains are equally terrifying and fascinating.
Hera and Sabine both rock.
I can’t wait to see what’s next."
I’m relieved I recently got into Star Wars Rebels, because this show was made for animation fans.
You’ll still be able to follow along, but it might not hit as hard.
More thoughts coming to my TikTok ASAP.
In conclusion, women rule!!!"
Cant wait to see her & Ahsokas full story.
Also MULTIPLE FORCE SENSITIVE WOMEN?!
Natasha Liu Bordizzo and MEW are, unsurprisingly, excellent."
Great score and loved all the visuals, especially the fight scenes.
Adore Kevin Kiners score.
This [makes] me want to revisit ‘Clone Wars,’ and yes, Rosario Dawson is great.
Looking forward to the rest of the series.
As a ‘Rebels’ fan, I felt a connection to it that was truly special.
And yet its hugely epic at some times & oddly flat at others.
Sabine is the standout through & by Ep 2 I was fully sucked in.
Rosario Dawson is very flat in the title role, but Natasha Liu Bordizzo is a stand out.
Visuals are hit or miss, some feel low budget at times.
Super fans may enjoy the show, but newcomers/casual fans will be lost."
The characters are not investing yet, particularly the villains.
Thrilling music & lightsaber fights."
Ep 1 has some slow moments involving a MacGuffin but Ep 2 really gels.
Sabine is a standout.
I think those meeting her for first time will really dig her.

Incredibly cinematic & fascinating.
Definitely a continuation of Rebels and its worth brushing up when we last saw everyone.
I cant take my eyes off Ivanna Sakhno whenever shes on screen and Im so intrigued by her character.
Would like a Loth-cat to cuddle this evening."
The first 2 episodes made me cheer, laugh, cry… & really want a loth cat!
Great lightsaber fights & lots of heart.
If you haven’t seen the Rebels animated series, watch it now."
Rosario Dawson plays Ahsoka perfectly; Hera and Sabine solid; intriguing villains.
Is Ahsoka Set To Be a Star Wars Winner?
