Great cast and props, rushed storytelling
JakeBrinkman5 June 2023
The actors' performances and the costumes are spot on.

The editing is way too choppy. This film really needs to be about 5-10 minutes longer for the story to make sense. It doesn't even need to have additional scenes or dialogue. All it needs is more time to set the scene so the audience actually has time to process what planet we are seeing and what is even happening before it quickly cuts away again to another scene.

The canon continuity was strange. The writers correctly and plausibly fit this film into a specific point within the Rebels TV show, but they ignore her white lightsabers and instead use one blue and one green. This film was probably made as an homage to the character Ahsoka, but that respect is in contrast with the saber color choice because ignoring the white sabers means the editors are disrespecting all of the character's development and growth that came with restoring her Inquisitor-bled crystals from red to white.

If they correct the lightsaber colors and double (or more) the runtime with added exposition, this would earn an easy 7+ out of 10. But instead, this feels more like a very rough draft.
