Solid adaptation that stays true to the original spirit of the show while modifying it to this new live action medium.

John Wick with The Brothers Sun and sprinkles of old school "Infernal Affairs"

Rating: 9/10 Absolutely musically magically and positively delightful! Thoughts and Experience: This movie was not my top movie to watch last week. Furthermore the theatre experience was terrible; people were disruptive and making noises, the movie turned black for a moment, and the popcorn was cold. Against all of that, I really liked the movie and the songs.

It’s everything. It goes everywhere. But at its core… it has a singular rooted meaning. And I love it. This is by far one of the best movie I’ve seen in years.

I watched episodes 1 and 2 of Ahsoka with no prior knowledge of Rebels or Clone Wars. Verdict, I thought it was bland but the lore piqued my interest thus I binged Rebels. After watching Rebels, I watched episode 3 and 4 of Ahsoka and I felt the show was even more disappointing. I liked the fact that Ahsoka is essentially season 5 of the Rebels. HOWEVER, the show completed stripped Sabine Wren's character. In the animated series, she was a strong individualist who's also a weapon engineer, skilled mandalorian, sharpshooter, bomb expert, bounty hunter, artist and rebel. In Ahsoka, she is a rebellious and immature brat who is now a liability. Her fight scenes make no sense. I understand that she is learning to use the force and the lightsaber... but she should be capable of holding her own using guns, bombs and mandalorian tech. I can say the same problem lies in Ahsoka and Hera as well in the live action series. The only saving grace for this show is the plot and action sequences. The most important criteria of adapting to live action is to keep the SPIRIT of the characters. Ahsoka unfortunately fails to deliver the charisma from the preceding animated shows. Rating: 2/5 *Edit - Finished the series. The last few episodes was phenomenal. Ezra and Ahsoka redeemed the show in terms of their spirit. I am still on the fence regarding Sabine's character. Thrawn was menacing as ever. I will recommend this show. Rating: 4/5

Exceeded my expectations. Pixar did not disappoint. I really shouldn't have listened to the early reviews from critics because this is actually a solid good movie.

The theme of matriarchy, patriarchy and self worth is too much on-the-nose for my taste. However I believe the casting and acting is great! Rating 7/10 (rounded down to 6/10 as it is not an 8/10)

Unexpectedly funny through and through!

Decent remake and exceeded my expectations by bringing back the Disney magic. However the beginning and ending of the movie was weak. The middle section was very well choreographed and the rendition of the songs was great. The CGI is inconsistent; it was a hit or miss. I think my biggest problem is Halle Bailey's portrayal of Ariel. She doesn't have any genuine chemistry with the rest of the cast.

It’s everything. It goes everywhere. But at its core… it has a singular rooted meaning. And I love it. This is by far one of the best movie I’ve seen in years.
