REVIEW: The Andor finale proves that, despite being one of the better Star Wars spin-off series, it's 'a classic example of a donut show: full of sweet deliciousness along the edges, but with a hole in the center.'
. We are gradually introduced to colorful supporting players like Syril and Luthen, but for the most part, we are just following Cassian as he tries to avoid Imperial notice, and keeps thinking about his tragic but relatively hazy backstory, which even the show ultimately lost interest in.
As the ensemble expanded and episodes spent more time with Luthen, Mon Mothma, and prison trustee Kino Loy , the generic, half-sketched nature of Cassian’s arc became less of an issue. So much else was working in terms of character, theme, and even structure that the series could afford to carry him.
Gilroy largely treated each three-episode bloc as its own phase of the story. It’s an improvement over all the streaming shows that try to treat an entire season as an incredibly long movie, but the execution of the idea was rough in those early episodes. By the second half of the season, though, individual installments managed to function far better on their own.
It could do splendid action, too, when it wanted — not just in the prison break, but in last week’s episode where Luthen’s little ship took on a giant Imperial vessel and a squadron of TIE fighters. Though there will definitely be some sensitive fans who would rush out to buy a toy version of Marva’s anxious, stuttering cinnamon roll of a droid, the aptly-named B2EMO.also does an excellent job dramatizing how bureaucracy can normalize evil, and how people like Dedra and Syril can convince themselves that they are the heroes of the story, rather than aiding and abetting atrocity. And it provides wonderful showcases for so many of its actors.
