Featured review
You're Fett but my gosh, don't you know it.
Whilst I wasn't head over heels in love with the first episode of "The Book of Boba Fett", based on some of the professional reviews I read, you'd think it was an unmitigated disaster, rather than just it had one scene that was a bit dodgy. This second episode is unmistakably better though.
Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison) is now learning the ways of the tribe of Tusken Raiders, having earned their respect downing the multiarmed creature. His weapon lessons are interrupted by the arrival of a high-speed transport, burning through the desert that attacks the tribe as they rocket by, killing some. Fett arrives at a plan to halt this regular assault. Years later, in Mos Espa, Fett and Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) learn that they are not the only party trying to fill the power vacuum in the city's underworld.
Like "The Mandalorian", this episode of "Boba Fett" improved by leaning into the Western tropes that the show utilises. This time it's a train heist, with speeder bikes replacing horses and blasters instead of bows and arrows. The result is still the same though, a high-speed and dangerous takedown that further bonds Fett with his former capturers. There's no action scene in the present day half of the show this time, but the story moves on dramatically as we learn that the mayor himself may not be a direct threat to Fett, but he's emboldened with the knowledge that the Hutt twins lay claim to the town, and bring with them the first live action version of Black Krrsantan, a Wookie warrior in their employ.
If I was to nit-pick, I'd say that perhaps the spice was enough to send Boba into his vision quest and the lizard up this nose was a touch goofier than it needed to be. I didn't bump up against the dance at the end as others have, maybe because I assumed it was more like a Haka than a square dance. It seems interesting that nobody as Mos Espa is thinking, "perhaps we don't need a crime lord at all" but maybe that will play back into the story later on.
Better.
