Obi-Wan Kenobi. Television Series Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Cast: Ewan McGregor, Moses Ingram, Vivien Lyre Blair, Hayden Christensen, Rupert Friend, James Earl Jones, Kumail Nanjiani, O’Shea Jackson Jr., Indira Varma, Marisé Álvarez, Maya Erskine, Jimmy Smits, Grant Feely, Flea, Joel Edgerton, Bonnie Piesse, Simone Kessell, Ian McDiarmid, Anthony Daniels, Liam Neeson.

Ewan McGregor’s time as Obi-Wan Kenobi always seemed short and one that arguably carried, alongside Ian McDiarmid as Emperor Palpatine, the prequel trio of films that framed the Star Wars franchise to a place where the maligned nature and often heavy-handed criticism is thankfully overlooked.

The accusation of the redundant and superfluous has long been strewn across the floor of films that have failed to keep the momentum going in terms of adventure and the single continuous thread which sees the same returning characters always at the heart of the story; it is an allegation that in many cases is unfounded, and yet for some the denunciation is deserved, fully and without concern.
