It is a solid start—just one that leaves me with a little trepidation and concern. Go to Full Review

“Shadow Lord” can capably move the “Clone Wars” story forward, but it’s not yet ready to serve as a “Star Wars” standard-bearer on its own. Go to Full Review

Maik T @MaikZockt24 3h I love the first two episodes and look forward to the next one. I think it's great that the second season has already been announced. The series simply shows that Disney can not only do bad Star Wars projects, even if there is a lot of Dave Filoni in it and it has less direct to do with Disney. See more Jason L. @Blueshadow1024 3h Dark, violent, and intense, this is gonna be a Star Wars ride to remember! See more mark M @RT67532525 4h I'm already loving every aspect of this show, a true audio-visual pleasure! See more Tyler L @Tyler131 5h Really good show with stunning animation, good story and great action scenes. See more Matthew C. @matthew404 6h Love the continuation of the lore that Maul went through See more Cameron H. @camthemovieman 7h Everything about this show so far is top notch! Visually stunning, the animation is some of the best we’ve seen from Star Wars and probably all of television. The way Sam Witwer immerses himself into the role of Maul is incredible. The rest of the voice cast is excellent as well. I love the dark, almost horror vibes going on, with the colors, shadows, and lighting. The music, action sequences, It’s just all so good See more Read all reviews
