The finale gets a rotten rating on RT


Critics Consensus
“In the Name of Honor” completes the frustrating trend of being less compelling when it focuses on Boba Fett, but this final shootout does a serviceable job of setting up more interesting adventures in the Star Wars universe.

That's a really good sign.

Remember how the critics loved the vile Last Jedi?

Being hated by Rotten Tomatoes is the new "fans really love it".

Amen!

Critics are scum when it comes to Star Wars. RT Audience is too. Boba Fett is is 7.7 on Imdb, RT 61%.

Imdb users gave #7 7.9. Note the Mando episodes are 9.5!

Yeah, critics are morons. Gave the Disney movies glowing praise.

I wasn't AS grumpy by the finale as I thought I'd be. It was OK. But for a show that was supposed to be about Boba, that still shouldn't have wasted 1 1/2+ episodes focusing on "Mando". Grogu 100% didn't need to be in this show whatsoever. In fact he shouldn't have been. All of that visiting him and seeing Luke, and the shit about the other Mandos, etc., should have just been in Season 3. This show was cut short to 7 eps as it was. ALL of them should have covered the story better.

Overall it was a decent show. But Boba as a character deserved better execution.
