In Chapter 12 of The Mandalorian, the titular Mandalorian reunites with old allies for a new mission. The episode is directed by Carl Weathers and is filled with light humor and fun. The Child provides comic relief, as always, and there is a nice closing scene. Gina Carano's poor performance and attitude has been a source of frustration for many viewers. Despite this, the episode progresses the plot and provides classic Star Wars action. There are a variety of plot dumps and questions which indicate that the episode is setting up for Episode IX. Many viewers appreciate the sequel trilogy love and other Legends love at the end of the episode. Overall, it was a solid entry in the season.

The episode was rated 7.88 from 5953 votes.

In Chapter 6: The Prisoner of The Mandalorian, the titular hero joins a crew of mercenaries on a dangerous mission. The episode introduces interesting elements such as the seriousness of the New Republic with regards to law and order, as well as the workings of hyperspace navigation in the Star Wars universe. The ending is kid-friendly as the three baddies are left alive on the cell.

The episode is not without its flaws, however. Poor planning and execution of the prison break is evident, and the make-up and acting of the Twi'leks is uneven. Furthermore, the X-Wings take longer than expected to arrive, leaving the prison ship without a driver, potentially leading to a death sentence for all aboard. Despite this, Bill Burr's character is an entertaining addition and Baby Yoda's presence is always a welcome one. In conclusion, this episode is a great addition to the show and is met with high praise from the majority of the fanbase.

The Child also plays a role in this episode, adding to the overall enjoyment of the installment. Although some viewers found this particular episode to be a bit of a step down from the previous one, the Child makes up for it and the episode is still an overall success.

The Mandalorian’s latest adventure takes him to the Tatooine desert in Chapter 5: The Gunslinger. Along the way, he encounters a rookie bounty hunter who is in over his head and needs help. The Mandalorian comes to the rescue and together, they have a thrilling space skirmish and return to Tatooine. The sets for Mos Eisley are perfect, with the droid sensors at the Cantina's door not present because the new bartenders are droids themselves. There is plenty of humor to be found and lots of scenes to remind the viewer of the original trilogy.

Overall, the episode is enjoyable and laid-back with the Mandalorian making a friend along the way. The story is exciting and the characters are cool.
