In this episode of the BoxTrick Podcast, we give our full review of The Mandalorian & Grogu… and honestly? We had an absolute blast with it.

Despite some critics giving the film mixed reviews, we genuinely think they completely missed the point. This movie wasn’t trying to reinvent cinema — it was trying to be a fun, exciting Star Wars adventure on the big screen again… and it absolutely succeeds at that.

From the action and visuals to the chemistry between Mando and Grogu, this felt like the kind of crowd-pleasing summer blockbuster Star Wars has been missing for a long time. And while the movie definitely plays things a little safe at times, it still delivers exactly what a lot of fans have been wanting: classic Star Wars fun.

We break down what worked, our favorite moments, where the movie fits into the larger Star Wars universe, and why we think audiences are connecting with it way more than critics are.

If you’ve been waiting for Star Wars to feel like a big theatrical event again… this might finally be it.
