What to Know

Critics Consensus

Brisk and straightforward, "The Mines of Mandalore" efficiently dives into The Mandalorian's latest story arc with a poorly-lit adventure, getting a big lift from Katee Sackhoff's charisma.

4/5
Begins with an act of misdirection from the unscrupulous (but endearing) Peli Motto. By the end, it’s starting to feel like this season has also involved some misdirection. Go to Full Review
