The Mandalorian - Season 1

A must-see thing for SW fans. A good spin-off from the classic films that is quite high in quality, somewhere on the level of Rogue One. It has fresh and unobtrusive humour, likable characters and a Mandalorian, to whom the creators subtly try to give a kind of mystical dimension of a star hunter and the best warrior of the galaxy. And it quite works, really. The actors are also good. Gina Carano is a hit, as is Werner Herzog with his raspy voice. And Baby Yoda is a great screenwriting idea. Bring in Season 2. (23/02/2020)

Unless Pedro Pascal is a narcissist who wants his face to appear in every shot, this must have been a dream job for him. Thanks to his costume, he had less opportunity to change his facial expression than IG-11, and if he didn't feel like acting, he could always ask someone from the crew to cover for him. But seriously, I quite enjoyed the first season, I was just annoyed that it was so similar to a lot of other series. The only thing that linked the individual episodes were the characters, and there was hardly any main plot apart from the last two episodes. It turned out to be a decent relaxing watch for a weekday afternoon, but with a little more effort it could have been turned into a real treat. 4*- (06/02/2020)
