Just some thoughts, I did like it overall, It was nice to see a different interpretation of fighting styles. All we've ever been exposed to with force users is light sabre fights. It was interesting to see a more physical style where light sabres almost seem like the last lethal weapon that the Jedi want to use.

Spoiler!

Its hard to believe that Qimr is played by Manny Jacinto who played the good hearted dolt in the good place. Who I think is way more dangerous and cagey then he's being portrayed. You also get the sense that one on one Mae isn't all that force sensitive and she's not going to beat a Jedi without resorting to using her brains.



I wold expect this isn't the last we see of Carrie Anne Moss, it would almost be hilarious after weeks of speculation that she has what works out to a 5 minute cameo.


There were lots of hints that the Jedi though they might be at their height of power and influence are ripe for the fall. Sol being called back for a strategy meeting while stuff is going down is what doomed the Jedi 100 years better.


The pacing is a big clunky as is the dialogue. In terms of the look and feel, its funny that the Jedi are marching around in the temple in their finest Jedi fancy garb, and when they go out into public they're wearing the drab travel gear. It gives you a sense that the Jedi are like the catholic church and try to disguise their wealth and power.


the dialogue was ok, but a bit clunky as well. But it was balanced off by the action scenes.


I'm still not sure about the master. I mean is he the master or is he the apprentice and the master is out pulling the strings elsewhere. Or are we following Sith Lore from legends, in that to prove yourself worthy you have to commit an act of cold blooded murder preferably of someone who you value.


Is Mae desiring to please her master so he will name her as his apprentice. We know that she is killing out of a sense of revenge and even justice. But killing Jedi masters would certainly please her master.


All in all it was decent the production value was good, as was the music. I liked the nod to the high republic in that the costuming didn't take on the more drab aspects of life after the rise of Palpatine.


I wonder if they cast the actor that played Yord because he has a look and manner that reminds you of Anakin. As well he had a yellow blade which is usually the color of the Temple Guards.



The killing without weapons is an interesting aspect.
