A misunderstanding causes Kaz to participate in a dangerous race to prove himself. Kaz struggles to maintain his cover as a mechanic and spy as he tries to adjust to this new normal.

At the end of its first hour, Resistance feels pleasantly primed with potential. Go to Full Review
Brian Lowry CNN.com 10/05/2018
Star Wars Resistance paints with a much brighter, more colorful palette, but at least initially settles for more pallid characters and situations -- the kind that don't immediately suggest this is the animated show you're looking for. Go to Full Review

Watching the show, it is evident that the creators made it for children – it’s more cartoon than an animated show. Having said that, us adults ended up loving it too! Go to Full Review
Germain Lussier io9.com 11/26/2018
Either way though, the mix of Star Wars references with a largely unrelated, emotional reunion set against a huge action set piece made for a great episode of Resistance. Go to Full Review

Oscar Isaac is always a delight as Poe Dameron. I hadn't realized how much I missed his specific brand of humor! I quite literally laughed out loud at multiple line deliveries. Go to Full Review

Stephen C @bob25009 Oct 23 21 successful animated Disney Channel episodes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated TV-Y7 for Fantasy Violence (FV)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dubbed and subtitled in worldwide studios!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more Marco L @decatur555 Jun 15 (CASTELLANO) Si algo define a Resistance es la sensación constante de estar viendo una serie de relleno. No es tan infantil como Ewoks o Droids, pero tampoco consigue despegar del todo ni aportar algo verdaderamente memorable al universo de Star Wars. La animación, con un estilo cel shading que no termina de cuajar, ya genera cierto rechazo de entrada. Y el protagonista, Kazuda Xiono, es un piloto torpe y entusiasta al que cuesta tomarse en serio durante buena parte de los episodios. A eso se le suma un elenco secundario que roza el absurdo, especialmente el alienígena Neeku, que parece sacado de una parodia mal escrita de la saga. Lo más frustrante es que la historia tenía margen para ser interesante: espionaje dentro de una estación aislada, el auge silencioso de la Primera Orden, y la progresiva pérdida de control por parte de la Nueva República. Pero todo eso queda sepultado bajo toneladas de episodios irrelevantes, humor facilón y una sensación permanente de que no está pasando nada. Sí, se agradecen algunos villanos reconocibles como Phasma o Pyre, y hay personajes como Yeager que funcionan, pero son la excepción. El final remonta ligeramente, pero no compensa el tedio general. Para completistas de la franquicia, con paciencia. Para el resto, prescindible. (ENGLISH) If there’s one word that defines Resistance, it’s filler. It’s not as childish as Ewoks or Droids, but it never really takes off or brings anything truly memorable to the Star Wars universe. The cel-shaded animation style already feels off from the start. And the protagonist, Kazuda Xiono, is an overenthusiastic and clumsy pilot who’s hard to take seriously for most of the series. Add to that a supporting cast that borders on ridiculous—especially Neeku, the alien who feels like a badly written parody—and the result is disappointing. What’s most frustrating is that the story had potential: espionage inside an isolated station, the quiet rise of the First Order, and the New Republic’s slow loss of control. But all of that gets buried under tons of irrelevant episodes, forced humor, and a constant feeling that nothing is really happening. Sure, some recognizable villains like Phasma or Pyre are welcome, and characters like Yeager actually work—but they’re the exception. The finale improves things slightly, but it doesn’t make up for the overall dullness. For hardcore fans of the franchise with patience. For everyone else, it’s easily skippable. See more AK K @JarJarFan May 6 Honestly, a lot better than I thought it would be. See more Paul S @RT91988760 Mar 26 It was fun to watch, but the story was not really intriguing. See more Francis A @RT18695037 02/06/2025 Think my rating has said it all. Something odd about the drawings. See more Charlie M @RT50477435 05/28/2024 There were actually some good ideas that were overlooked, but the characters are annoying, and there was lots of filler. See more Read all reviews
