I know this won’t sit well with a lot of Star Wars fans, but excuse me for asking, “Why in the world does anyone like The Mandalorian and Grogu?” There’s no drama to speak of, certainly no great acting; the action was ho-hum. If you ask me, this is the poster child for today’s average Hollywood/Disney movie.

I have no idea why Pedro Pascal ever agreed to take this role. The character is defined by being emotionless. There are literally hundreds of actors who could have done just as good a job in this role, because it demands so little talent to portray an emotionless warrior who is behind a mask that hides any facial expressions except for a few scenes. This role reminds me of Hugo Weaving’s masterful job as V in V for Vendetta. We never see Hugo’s face, but he projects such a presence through his mannerisms and vocal tones. Hugo shows what is possible with a character that has zero facial expressions. The writing, directing, and acting of Mando’s role remind me of Brie cheese: it’s like cheese, with all the cheese flavor squeezed out of it.

There were two things that I did like about the movie. It was great to see Sigourney Weaver as an X-Wing pilot, and the character Rotta the Hutt was genuinely good stuff; both well-written and voice-acted.  Good enough that it could have carried a lot more weight.

Grade: C

This is a great app. I wish more people would support it

This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let's you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It's really a wonderful app. I've subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn't seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven't tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!

Developers note: RunPee doesn't make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We'll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.

There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu.

Plot
The evil Empire has fallen, and Imperial warlords remain scattered throughout the galaxy. As the fledgling New Republic works to protect everything the Rebellion fought for, they have enlisted the help of legendary Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin and his young apprentice Grogu.

Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂

Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
