Obi-Wan Kenobi Part V Review: 7 Ups & 3 Downs

1. It Sets Up A Great Finale

All told, Part V of Obi-Wan Kenobi has been the best episode yet, a riveting display of brutal action, harrowing flashbacks that add haunting poignancy to Anakin's downfall and Obi-Wan's turmoil, and fan service that is both nostalgic and vital.

The depth of Obi-Wan's pain continues to grow deeper, as does the intensity of his post-Purge life, and if the cliffhangers are anything to go by, the series has a lot more tricks left up its sleeve.

It's been a messy affair up until this point, but if the finale maintains the highs of Part V, there's a high chance Obi-Wan Kenobi will be remembered as the best live-action Star Wars show yet. Fingers crossed it doesn't drop the ball.
