With ‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ now complete, we’ve compiled all of our previous reviews of the Star Wars event series into a single episode. In the series premiere, we pick up ten years after the events of Order 66 with a surprisingly emotional opening chapter (16:27). Part II takes us to a new planet, Daiyu, in an episode that largely focuses on a rescue mission of an unexpected character (42:02). In Part III, Darth Vader comes face-to-face with his former Jedi Master in a rematch that ultimately left us wanting more (51:47). In perhaps the most disappointing installment of the series, Part IV shifts the focus back to another rescue mission without progressing the story forward in a meaningful way (1:14:16). The penultimate chapter presents us with many action set pieces, but further complicates the motivations of one of the central antagonists (1:40:02). The finale manages to live up to the hype as it pertains to the matchup between Obi-Wan and Vader, but unfortunately isn’t able to elevate the series above its many storytelling flaws (2:23:55). Lastly, we conclude with our overall thoughts and reflections about the limited series’ place in the Star Wars universe (3:08:43).
