Chris Cooper reviews Star Wars Rebels – ‘Relics of the Old Republic’… Now this is a bit more like it. After the extremely impressive opening film/double episode, last week’s episode was a quite disappointing with it’s lumpy pacy. Relics of the Old Republic introduces a classic vehicle whilst providing some very tense scenes and cool […]

Chris Cooper reviews the latest episode of Star Wars Rebels… Star Wars Rebels’ first season finished extremely strongly, as the Lothal rebels took their first steps into a larger world. This was followed up by The Siege of Lothal, a double length episode/film released in the summer. With the full introduction of a terrifying Darth Vader, […]

Chris Cooper reviews the season 2 premiere of Star Wars Rebels… With a double-length première episode Rebels comes flying right into the thick of the action.

Chris Cooper reviews the season finale of Star Wars Rebels, ‘Fire Across the Galaxy’… ‘Fire Across the Galaxy’ is an amazing episode of Star Wars Rebels. It’s also a massive pain in the backside, as it’s the last one and I want to see more. The most impressive aspect of this episode is how much […]

Chris Cooper reviews the eleventh episode of Star Wars Rebels, ‘Call to Action’… Woah. I’m not sure there is a more appropriate word when comparing ‘Call to Action’ to the previous episode ‘Vision of Hope’. They really are the antithesis of each other.

Chris Cooper reviews the tenth episode of Star Wars Rebels, ‘Vision of Hope’… With the end of the first season/series in sight I find myself in a contemplative mood regarding the crew of the Ghost.  Though the action, character interaction and ‘Star Wars feel’ have been great, I’d like more. Specifically my craving for progression and […]

Chris Cooper reviews the ninth episode of Star Wars Rebels, ‘Idiot’s Array’… Look at this image and tell me you’re not excited about this week’s episode of Rebels. I dare you. I triple dare you! That’s right, Lando Calrissian is back, and voiced by none other than Billy Dee Williams! The charm. The swagger. That smile. […]

Chris Cooper reviews the eighth episode of Star Wars Rebels, ‘Path of the Jedi’… Upon its New Year return, Star Wars Rebels gives us plenty we’ve seen before, but plenty that’s new too. If that sounds a bit like Yoda, then you’re not far wrong. In what is possibly the strongest episode yet we get a […]

Chris Cooper reviews the seventh episode of Star Wars Rebels, ‘Gathering Forces’… Following on immediately from last week’s episode, we’re thrown right into the Ghost’s attempt to escape from a squad of TIEs, led by the Inquisitor in his shiny new TIE Advanced.
