The Mandalorian co-creator turned Star Wars creative chief Dave Filoni outlined the series, giving these episodes a familiar feel, but the small scale allows for more moral doubt and self-recrimination than we normally get in a galaxy far, far away.

Small but perfectly formed, Tales Of The Empire is a dark, delicious treat for deep Star Wars fans. ‘Tales Of The Rebellion’ next, please! Go to Full Review Matthew Simpson Movies We Texted About Jul 12
Tales of the Empire falls in line with the franchise as a whole: the good is good, and the rest is filler at best. Fortunately, this time, the good is indeed very good and definitely worth your time. Go to Full Review Ashley Moulton Common Sense Media 05/21/2024
Tweens deep into Star Wars lore will enjoy getting to know more backstory here. For more casual fans, Tales of the Empire's focus on exposition and fight scenes might not keep them interested. Go to Full Review Alex Maidy JoBlo's Movie Network 05/17/2024

Tales of the Empire is a solid entry to the current Star Wars offerings, but it is also something that should’ve probably focused on another bigger and well-known Empire character to really make this feel like a not-miss event. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Crazy C @CrazyCanuck Jan 17 Not nearly as incredible and captivating as Tales of the Jedi. While this one had exciting moments, it gets bogged down from rushed storylines and odd plot decisions. There are an abundance of interesting (and actual) Imperials to choose from (Tarkin, Thrawn, Vader), and it would have been pretty cool to have seen trooper perspectives. They dropped the ball a lot here. See more Bob J @GametimeD Dec 19 all the tales are peak this one is no exception See more Daniel L Nov 2 Love this but it needed more episodes. Far too good a show for it to only last 6 episodes. See more Stephen C @bob25009 Oct 23 6 successful Disney+ animated episodes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated TV-PG for Moderate Violence (V)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dubbed and subtitled in worldwide studios!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more Mal G Sep 30 not nearly as good as jedi See more Hughe J @Hughe Aug 10 Tales of the Empire is a six part mini series released on Disney+ in 2024. The first three episodes deal with Morgan Elsbeth and the last three dealt with Bariss Offee. These are characters that were first introduced in the animated shows and later expanded on somewhat in the Ashoka live action series. Neither character is particularly interesting but I did enjoy seeing Elsbeth's backstory. For fans of the Heir to the Empire novels there's a few Easter Eggs thrown in which was nice, the animation was decent, and the voice over work was good. My issue was that the stories weren't very interesting and I'm tired of seeing people getting impaled by lightsabers and then strolling away, plus stop trying to push pronouns on us. Overall, if you're a fan of animated Star Wars then this might be worth a watch but other than that I'd pass. See more Read all reviews
