Andor: Season One (2022) - REVIEW

SYNOPSIS

Set during the peak of the Imperial Empire, Andor tells the story of Cassian Andor in his formative years that would ultimately lead him to become a spy for the Rebellion.

youtube

I was not expecting this. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story gave us our first live action peek into the internal politics of the Empire and the Rebellion that consequently added a lot of grey into the black and white morality of the Star Wars Saga. Andor takes this to a completely new level while it covers serious and recognizable themes as a Star Wars property that is the most un-Star Wars yet and a significant improvement over the major misfire that was Book of Boba Fett. This isn't a fast paced space western with a soaring score like the Mandalorian, this is a carefully paced drama with a measured amount of action but spread across a much larger canvas with complex characters who are often disconnected from one another. The major set pieces when they do come are thoroughly earned with clearly established stakes and executed to thrilling perfection. With Andor we've got something that is not just very different but so much more mature. This is, putting is bluntly, Star Wars for grown ups.

Andor plays out against an incredibly vast canvas consisting of several new planets including the worlds of Ferrix and Aldhani but it also includes one strikingly familiar world in Coruscant. More than simply being a quick edit to a CGI backdrop, each location is unique from one another and explores a different aspect of life under the cold and bureaucratic tyranny of the Empire. So much time is spent in these locations that includes a variety of Imperial facilities such as the Imperial Security Bureau on Coruscant and the prison on Narkina 5, that they feel just as lived in and real as anything seen in the Original Star Wars Trilogy. This is world building of the likes we haven't seen from Star Wars while at the same time it treads into darker depths and murkier waters of morality with characters who often can't be divided into a simple category of good and evil. So striking is its pace and tone that I often felt I was watching something closer to Blade Runner than Star Wars. Tonally it also shares similarities to the Hunger Games with the run down, oppressed worlds of Ferrix and Aldhani versus the high society and politicking of Coruscant being similar to the Districts and Capitol of those movies.

Throughout its 12 episode run, Andor tells a slow story of radicalization; the Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) we're introduced to here isn't the committed Rebel agent we see in Rogue One. This is a Cassian Andor who's simply about survival but then finds himself in the sights of sinister Imperial Security Bureau agent Dedra Meero (Denise Gough), who is convinced of the existence of an organized rebellion. Andor is as much an origin story for the Rebellion as it is for Cassian himself as Senator Mon Mothma (Genevieve O'Reilly) attempts to navigate the complexities of Imperial politics while trying to fund the fledgling rebellion. The characters that feature here are often located separate from one another with only the mysterious and ruthless Luthen Rael (Stellan Skarsgard) providing the link between all arcs. There are few characters to truly root for but many who are interesting and complex with Cassian himself, Fiona Shaw's Maarva, Luthen, Dedra Meero and Andy Serkhis' Kino Loy being particular standouts. This is a show with plenty of interesting characters.

The show is very patient with its storytelling and doesn't rush into one set piece after another which will disappoint anyone looking for the more traditional thrills of Star Wars. The set pieces however are all unique in terms of their specific stakes and structures, but all of them serve to make the Empire feel more of a threat than its ever felt before. From the escape from Ferrix, the raid on Aldhani, the escape from Narkina 5 and a few others. The visual effects are always stunning and look especially effective from the use of practical locations and sets. The pace of the storytelling means that each set piece is carefully laid out and understood beforehand by the audience leading into one which generates great tension. For a show that can feel tonally very bleak, these set pieces give Andor several moments of exhilaration and satisfying pay offs. But the real pay off is Cassian's journey as the 12 episodes perfectly capture the cruel, unjust and relentless essence of the Empire. Cassian's arc from a nobody to a Rebel, much the series as a whole, feels completely earned.

VERDICT

Andor is the Star Wars show I didn't know that I needed or wanted and is a rare show that manages to stick the landing with a thrilling finale that perfectly sets up season two. This is arguably the best Star Wars property of the post-Lucas era.

5/5

i don’t know who needs to hear this but if you love the 2000′s/2000′s aesthetic and you have spectrum cable, there’s a channel called Dabl on 152 that plays reruns every night of old home decoration/ house flipping shows from the 2000′s. mind you it may be boring if you’re not into that kind of programming but in my opinion it’s worth it. they even leave in the old credits and ending logos :) i recommend this channel if you like 2000′s fashion, logos and home decor especially.

Wednesday Evening Thoughts

I really want to start writing daily again. It doesn't matter what is, whether its journaling, blogging, writing grocery lists or just SQUEEING about things that excite me in point form, or formed sentences. MUUUST WRITE!!

I feel that in the last two years by not writing, I’ve really devolved, I’ve lost my vocabulary, my memory isn’t as sharp as it was my entire life.

I dunno why I’ve been so scared to write but I need to stop listening to the depression monsters and the black brain fog that wants to keep me down.

So, start slow.

It’s the summer and our summer tv season is upon us.

Currently, I’ve been watching Evil: Season 3 and In the Dark: Season 4. Evil is a little more enjoyable because it really is a modern X-Files. I especially LOVED the ep on Sunday where it was a reference and homage to the haunted highway in the States. I forget exactly which highway it is and which state it is. I don’t want to check because I’ll just get distracted and multitask and forget to finish this. ANYWAY, it was a FUN ep.

In The Dark had such a great first season but hasn’t really benefited from further ones. It follows A LONG LINE of shows that had such great premises, whether high concept or not that struggle when the premise is stretched like a band aid.

On shows I haven’t watched yet. Haven’t watched ANY of the following; Ms. Marvel, The Orville: Season 3, The Old Man, The Pirates of Angkor Island (I think its Netflix), still haven’t finished Daredevil either.

I’m REALLY EXCITED for the return of Mysteries Decoded. Season 1 was in 2019! 2019, guys. Thanks Covid.

I’m torn on Mysteries Decoded. I really like the host Jennifer Marshall, but I feel it could be better. But I’m here for it, as many who know me know I’m a whore for Paranormal television.

ANNND The Challenge: USA. Honestly I’m not really into Reality TV, but it has players from Survivor and I’m just so curious. I’m hoping it will appear tomorrow on Paramount+

P.S. Watched two cartoons from the 2000s. The Life and Times of Juniper Lee and The Secret Saturdays. Both on Cartoon Network and featured teens dealing with cryptids, mythological monsters and the supernatural, paranormal and mystic.

P.P.S. How can a show about cryptids NOT HAVE MOTHMAN!!! You’ve just lost your cryptid cred, show! *raises fists in the air* Signed, the biggest Mothman Stan.

Anyways, those are my thoughts. I’m going try to watch The Old Man before bed. Let’s see if i succeed or get distracted.

Horses. I really like that other movie that Hobie's voice actor was in.

IDK why I ended up putting so much effort into the rendering this was just supposed to be a shitpost.

Hobie's pose is heavily referenced from a shot from the movie Nope (2022). The background texture is also from the same frame.

Miguel is cast as the stressed-out, half-Latino, tech guy with an angel name who watches camera feeds all day and bitches about his life to people he just met.
