Updated Based on 3 Episodese - Mostly bad, but a few good tid bits. Good: Obi-Wan again done justice by Ewan McGregor. He's a great actor and brings continued depth to the role. Grand Inquisitor looks decent and well acted. Bad parts: Princess Leia 10 year old is poorly acted, horrible chase scene, with buffoons bad guys trying to catch her. She's overly smart and troublesome. Grown bad guys literally tripping on nothing, and clotheslining themselves in the chase. I suppose a 10 year old would find this funny, but I didn't. Third Sister Reva, over the top poor acting. Not intimidating, or believable. I just don't understand what the director was thinking with this character. 5th Brother, also very overacted, with his angry scrunchy face. 2nd and 3rd episode, really much of the same. Reva terrible actress. Leia has another silly chase scene, this time she is strong enough to hold herself up with 1 arm from a wire (a 10 year old mind you). Vader scenes were good at first, but then he callously just lets Kenobi escape instead of killing him. Some of the CGI isn't great, but mostly ok. Was really excited to see what they would do with Kenobi, now I'm more of a...well I guess I just watch it to see how bad they can make it.

Really poor story arc and directing. Poor Luke is a shell of himself. Bombers in space? Slow motion space chase? 1/3 of the movie is a pointless tangent? Suicide is ok if you are a strong female character, but when Finn tries to do the same he is saved by Rose? And sudden she loves him after less than a day with him? Oh and they teleport back to the rebels somehow faster than the first order? This movie is completely bad on all fronts. Don't even get me started on the Leia force grab in space. Did anyone even edit this movie or say "no" to an idea during the story boarding? Wow. Worst Star Wars movie hands down and that includes the Jar Jar debacle.
