"Is Andor that good?"
I thought it was good in a different way (very story heavy!)
Mandalorian so far for me out of all the newer live action stuff is the best of the bunch.
(but then again i just like SW in general!) |

"Is Andor that good?"
Short answer, yes…
Long answer…
Andor is finally Star Wars for grown ups.
No Jedi or constant masses of flashy visuals, it’s the actual storyline and acting that draws you in. There are moments of true drama and emotional weight with some of the best writing and acting I’ve seen in ANY tv series.
It’s gritty and dark in places, there are blurred moral boundaries and you see what sacrifices are needed to actually start a proper rebellion.
Stellan Skarsgård and Andy Serkis are brilliant as always, but Diego Luna, Genevieve O’Reilly and Fiona Shaw are incredible too.
It’s a slow burn initially but for good reason and well worth the payoff.
You will care about these characters.
No spoilers, but I’ve never been so nervous about someone getting in water or so happy to see someone hit someone else with a brick (if you know, you know).
For me it’s easily the best of any Star Wars and some of the best TV I’ve ever seen |

Genevieve O'Reilly is just mesmerising in Andor. I'd totally watch Star Wars: Mon Motha Wearing Amazing Outfits at Tense Dinner Parties. |

Just saw this and as a quite big Star Wars fan - I agree , if only for the last 5 minutes of the film , not giving anything away but I’d say we all waited for that moment ! |
