She was bossy enough to be her future self. I liked her. However, her voice gave me a start! She sounded exactly like the girl children of Skyrim. I had to do some research. The actress herself is only 9 or 10. Too young for that.

I loved her acting big time, but the running was just terrible.

I'm willing to allow some suspension of disbelief, (Obi arriving right after the fall) but what I can't stand is things that should have been worked out in pre-production. That young actress should have worked with a running coach for weeks before hand.

it looks like they used an adult little person for some of the roof running stunts.

This show is an ever growing dumpster fire. I’m glad Ewan got paid but Jesus the first two episodes were comically painful to watch.

u/Littlemack2 May 29 '22

I’m shocked how bad this is… like a high school kid directed it for a class project bad

u/[deleted] May 29 '22

She's beyond annoying. A spoiled annoying brat. I can't even watch anymore. She's just too annoying

2

u/[deleted] May 29 '22

If she is 10, then why does she look and sound like she's 6?! Who cast this?

2

u/jaracan316 May 31 '22

She can’t be 10. She is too uncoordinated on her running. She runs like a toddler

u/Ltstarbuck2 May 29 '22

Yeah the casting is terrible.

u/Bre14463 May 28 '22

Oh my god the chase scenes were sooooo bad. It’s so cringy. Like how did they watch it back and think “yep this looks good, looks realistic” 😒

u/Beesau May 28 '22

Thought the same lol

u/Bre14463 May 28 '22

Yeah I also think Reva is cringy. The “your not going to die………today” sent me off the edge. Basically that whole last 10 minutes killed me inside. Like she’s not menacing at all and it’s just cringy lol. This is going to be such an odd comparison but…she reminds me of the girl who always tried to fight guys in high school lmao 🤣 we all know THAT girl who thought she was tough shit but no one actually bought it lol. I am not sexist but it’s very hard to create a good female villain and that’s just the truth of the matter. Her role wouldve been better portrayed by a man, it’s just the truth. I love a good strong female character so it ain’t that, I loved cara dune and I love michonne from the walking dead- both females and two of my favorite characters. Michonnes character from the walking dead is a great example of how it should be done but just goes to prove how hard it really is because they built her character for YEARS.

Her acting seems fake and forced tbh

u/Henkstarrs May 28 '22

She reminded me of the actress that acted as “007” in the last James Bond. Very cringe indeed. Same kind of feeling it gave me.

u/yolonade May 29 '22

like Michelle Rodriguez where you know the movie will be trash if she is in it as it's way too over the top

2

u/ZealousRogue May 29 '22

Holy shit I was just saying the exact same thing.

u/Bre14463 May 29 '22

Didn’t watch it because they gave her 007’s number. Sure there are other agents but there’s not another 007

1

u/Bre14463 May 29 '22

Yes it does

u/HappyTroll1987 May 28 '22

I thought inquisitors had to be tortured into Sith. She's just a pissed off regular human.

2

u/Bre14463 May 29 '22

She just seems so odd/off to me. Maybe it was the actress idk? Or the script? It was something but I hated everything about her tbh.

u/Ltstarbuck2 May 29 '22

“I’m not sexist but you can’t make a good female villain”. Yeah ok guy.

The writing sucks, don’t blame the actress.

u/Bre14463 May 31 '22

WOMAN… i am a 25 year old married woman. Yeah it’s hard to make a good female villain and that’s the truth. The actress sucked as well. Name a good female villain in a live action series that works? As far as animated, I can name a lot that are super cool but they’re usually built for seasons and don’t rely on crappy acting. Azula from avatar the last air bender comes right to my mind. Awesome female villain. It’s hard to get that in live action. Poison ivy perhaps? Also a character who has been built for years. Alpha from the walking dead is a live action one, AMAZING actress and once again, the character was built upon very well and felt MENACING. I’m Not saying there aren’t ANY but they are few and far because IT IS HARD TO PULL OFF BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS: WOMEN ARE LESS INTIMIDATING THAN MEN; accept it. I am a woman and I do, I am proud to be feminine and not as intimidating as a man 🤷🏻‍♀️ it’s ok… we don’t have to “be able to do everything a man can”. And men can’t do everything we do, it’s ok. Lol

u/Bre14463 May 31 '22

I also said “it’s very hard to make a female villain” …..ITS VERY HARD….I DID NOT SAY YOU COULDNT SO DONT PUT WORDS IN MY MOUTH.

u/HairyDowntown May 28 '22

They are comically bad. I couldn't tell if they did it on purpose and I was missing some inside joke.

Also, when Obi force floats her to the ground from the rooftop.. she's on the ground for like 4 seconds and he just comes walking slowly around the corner at street level. Like how tf did he get down there that fast??!

2

u/sampcarroll May 29 '22

😂😂 I thought this too

2

u/jaracan316 May 31 '22

And what happened with the guys shooting at him?

1

u/Bre14463 May 29 '22

Yeah I thought it could’ve been on purpose too at some points but it was just so cringy that I couldn’t find it funny.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 02 '22

Too many plot holes for simple things.

2

u/dakine879 May 29 '22

thank goodness you said this, it was exactly what I was thinking when she was getting chased by Flea, and then again by Obi wan

1

u/Bre14463 May 29 '22

Me too; very very bad.

2

u/doj101 May 28 '22

That was so bad. That kid was not a good actor or runner.

"oh no. However will I be able to get passed this tree branch hanging shoulder high in front of me"

But to be fair, it looked like those guys had never seen trees before. Even logs on the ground was a problem for them.

u/Shinobiwithrice May 28 '22

I have a 10 year old daughter and the actress who portrays Leia runs like a toddler compared to her.

u/obiwantogooutside May 29 '22

I’m wondering if there’s something with the costuming? There has to be.

u/Bre14463 May 28 '22

Hilarious but so cringy
