Obi-Wan Kenobi episode 4 review: Obi-Wan struggles but gets back up and promises strength

3.5/5

Story:

Obi-Wan Kenobi survives an attack from Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader). However, Leia is captured by the Sith. Will he be able to rescue her and bring them to safety?

Review:

Obi-Wan Kenobi is a series that keeps on growing towards something better and more impactful. Even though the latest episode is not as grand as the last (episode 3), this one has a lot to offer still, in terms of visuals, story and emotions.

Obi-Wan still has life left in him. The scene is a classic blur-and-vision one and it makes for quite a sight.

Obi-Wan facing the same fate as Anakin (Darth Vader) is an epic high point in the series. Intrigue builds soon after and music only helps the cause.

The visuals in this episode are once again an absolute delight to watch. Imagine a blue lightsaber where a room is filled with red lighting. Yep. Sith vs Jedi, once again.

Obi-Wan gets into action and once again, is brief but impactful. He does use his lightsaber again and it is something you don't want to miss.

Moses Ingram as third sister Reva gets dreadful with every passing epsiode and this one is an example of that. She is unbelievable in this episode too.

Things get pretty darn impressive when Star Wars meets Titanic in a scene in the series. Even though it could have gone cliched, the makers ensured nothing like that happens and in fact, the scene becomes grand.

Obi-Wan and Leia share some sweet moments again. This time, if a third person looks at them, it would be tough to not call them father and daughter.

Verdict:

Go watch episode 4 of Obi-Wan Kenobi, especially if you have already seen episode 3. This might not be Obi-Wan vs Darth Vader good but it is still pretty much at par.
