LEGO Star Wars: The Mandalorian Review

LEGO Star Wars: The Mandalorian is available to stream on Disney+ and marks a potential end to the series, with Din Djarin and Grogu possibly relegated to the Mando-verse crossover movie. The animated special serves as a recap and tribute to the three seasons of the live-action show, as well as The Book of Boba Fett. It's a fun and goofy 45-minute film, featuring familiar characters such as Amy Sedaris, Bill Burr, Temuera Morrison, Katee Sackhoff, Rosario Dawson, and Giancarlo Esposito reprising their roles, while Pedro Pascal is notably absent.

The lack of a new story or fresh direction within the world of The Mandalorian leaves one wondering what could have been.
