Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld Reviews

I really liked this, I have to say though episode 1, first 3 minutes, was by far the best thing we got throughout the show; not to say the show was bad, just that the first scene was just incredible.
Ventress is such a badass character, Bane's story was decent too, great history

Was alright, liked the first 3 episodes

A good series it doesn’t have the best story out the tales series but it’s the most consistent has two interesting characters and adds more layers to both and no bad episodes overall 7.7/10

Eh… was quite bored and scrolled on my phone for most of this show. I like ventress (it now makes sense how she’s alive after Dark Disciple) and Cad Bane but wasn’t super invested in this storyline. Also I feel like it left a lot unsaid like why isn’t here more episodes lol

Watched this as soon as it came out, very much enjoyed.

Good little series, nothing mind blowing, but pretty enjoyable! I liked seeing more Ventress and Bane!

6,5/10

It was a cool story, but not a show I would watch again soon

Liked this one although ventress’ is way better than bane’s

Good overall. Both ventresses and cad banes stories were both pretty cool, loved seeing more of some of the fan favorite characters

Loved it

First ep. first scene!!!!!! The scream i let out lollll. Oh how I missed him. It was weird seeing him again after so long. Like seeing my dead wife.
Generally, it was good. I really liked the new jedi kid. he's a sweetheart.

Rating: 7.4/10 ⭐️

I expected a cash-grab, but this gritty dive into the galaxy’s shadows totally hooked me.

What Worked:
The animation team pushed The Clone Wars engine, making the environments feel super cinematic. Burton and Futterman voiced Bane and Ventress with raw energy. Through my Methodist faith lens, seeing Ventress protect the vulnerable beautifully reinforced my beliefs about grace and how it’s never too late for redemption.

The Cuts:
Splitting episodes across two timelines meant the pacing really dragged for me. Keeping it spoiler-free, Bane’s backstory resolution relies on a forced twist that felt like cheap emotional manipulation. Also, the side characters felt super one-dimensional, acting purely as plot devices.

Verdict:
A gorgeous anthology capturing the messy Star Wars underworld. Great if you love character studies, skip if you hate disjointed pacing or bleak storylines.

Favorite Line: “I’ve been on the wrong side of the law too long to start playing the hero.”

A fun show with two three episode stories. I enjoyed them, but they both were fairly anticlimactic. Decent for exploring character of some marginalized persons, but I half expected more. 6.5/10

7/10

Ventress episodes were decent but the ending was really dumb, Cad Bane arc I loved
