I simply cannot wait.įuture of the Force will cover the series from every angle. The next episode should be mind-blowingly intense, as we are truly going where no man, Tw’lek, droid, or Togruta has gone before. Or the series in general! Well okay, I really wanted Marrok to remain in play (BUT I wouldn’t rule him out just yet!)
The narratives of STAR WARS: AHSOKA are shaping up quite nicely and I have nothing bad to say about this episode. (L-R): Chopper, Hera Syndulla (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), and Jacen Syndulla (Evan Whitten) in Lucasfilm’s STAR WARS: AHSOKA, exclusively on Disney+. The episode hit the nail on the head, and I found myself chuckling out loud at Huyang’s monotonic answers to Jacen’s eagerness to be a Jedi. It needs to be subtle and not make it seem like you are trying too hard. Humor in Star Wars is not new but needs to be approached very carefully. There were even a few laughs sprinkled in. Hera is a patient and caring mother and very much reminded me of my mother at that age. It wouldn’t have gone so successfully if Jacen hadn’t lent his Force-sensitivity skills. The whole Hera and Jacen mission to find Ahsoka was also very fun. Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson) in Lucasfilm’s STAR WARS: AHSOKA, exclusively on Disney+. Not the most elegant thought, but it is 100% true. It isn’t always easy or fun, but if you stop, you die. I also love how Anakin took the kid gloves off and gave her the tough truth about life. I think the flashback montage to Ahsoka’s youth in The Clone Wars was well executed and made me feel the right amount of nostalgia. I love that we got to see more uses for the World Between Worlds. Anakin shows his advanced dueling skills (flourishes and smooth finishes included) as he tests his former padawan in a location where time and space have little meaning. However, this has faded entirely with this episode. In my review of the last episode, I was complaining about how choppy and poorly choreographed the lightsaber duels of the 2020s were compared to the ’00’s. (L-R): Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) and Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson) in Lucasfilm’s STAR WARS: AHSOKA, exclusively on Disney+. I recall reading that Christensen binge-watched The Clone Wars to get into character for his return to the role. He is back to “finish” Ahsoka’s training, and his demeanor and “aura” very much show a mix of Hayden’s Anakin and Matt Lanter’s Clone Wars Anakin. So we have some catching up to do! Christensen has aged a tiny bit, (even though Ahsoka joked he didn’t) but more or less looks the same as he did in Revenge of the Sith. The last time they met, Anakin was clad head-to-toe in dark, scary armor and sporting a sinister (yet iconic) wheeze. But first, I have to say how much I geeked out when I knew Hayden Christensen was going to interact with Ahsoka again. Simple words, but very befitting of the teaching style of Anakin Skywalker. It’s time for our weekly dose of STAR WARS: AHSOKA and Part Five reunites us with Anakin and his Padawan! This episode of STAR WARS: AHSOKA hit the nail on the head” Their desperate search for their missing daughter for over a decade reveals the profound impact of Lena’s disappearance on her family.“I geeked out when I knew Hayden Christensen was going to interact with Ahsoka again. The arrival of Lena’s parents, portrayed with emotional depth by Julika Jenkins as Karin Beck and other supporting actors, adds a layer of complexity to the story. What sets Dear Child apart from traditional thrillers is its commitment to exploring the aftermath of trauma and captivity. Her character’s transformation throughout the series is both haunting and poignant. She effectively portrays the deep emotional scars left by years of captivity and the conflicted emotions of a child who has grown up in isolation.
Naila Schuberth, who plays Hannah, Lena’s daughter, also delivers an exceptional performance. She seamlessly transitions between the trauma of her past and the uncertainty of her present, making Lena’s journey from captivity to freedom both compelling and heart-wrenching. Riedle’s performance is a masterclass in conveying the emotional complexity of her character. At the core of the series is Kim Riedle’s remarkable portrayal of Lena, a character who has endured years of captivity and abuse.
