Star Wars: The Clone Wars Review! Episode 4.14

A Friend in Need!! Great episode!!!!

I like the quote at the beginning. It was very interesting to see Separatists and the Republic talking face to face! I liked Padmé's outfit here. I realize Dooku doesn't die until Episode III, but sometimes I just wish someone like Asajj, Vizsla, or Lux would finish him already! Haha I know I said this in the last review, but Ahsoka really has grown in strength, fighting skills, etc. It was somewhat surprising to see Lux pull out a gun on Ahsoka, but with knowing that he was going to meet up with Death Watch, it didn't catch me completely off guard. I chuckled when Ahsoka took the gun away from him.

The planet was very pretty when they first got there! Nice animation there, especially with the blizzard later on! It was funny when Ahsoka came up with them being engaged! They had some really cool scenes of the planet.

I liked the scene when they entered into the base, it really showed the ruthlessness of the Death Watch. I find it hard to believe Lux came up with that plan. Lux grabbing Ahsoka and kissing here was quite comical! I wish they could have had a real kiss in the show, though. At first I didn't like Pre's new look(his face, I really like the new battle gear style!), but now I realize that it gives him a stronger battle-worn look. It was a little creepy seeing all of those droids. They were acting like zombies.

I was somewhat surprised to see Bo kick Ahsoka to the ground. The blizzard was a nice touch to create the mood. I loved Ahsoka's line to Lux when she gave him food, or a drink, whatever it was. I can't believe even Lux fell for the lie Vizsla told the natives. After seeing the town, I think that we have now seen a Chinese modeled civilization as well as Egyptian. It was so sad seeing the buildings burn, and the girl's last words! Then when Ahsoka jumped into action, there was a new since of hope! But then they crushed our hope and captured Ahsoka, which I liked because what I don't like it when they show the Jedi as all powerful beings that can't be beat. I kinda figured that the droids would help free Ahsoka and Lux. Duh, Lux, why couldn't you have figured that out a long time ago?!(referring to his line about them being murderers) haha Vizsla's face just before he was about to kill Ahsoka, was... disturbing. haha I love it when R2 saves the day! But I hate it when the leaders of different groups are so arrogant! "Stop! The Jedi is mine!" how often do we hear that? Too often!

Ahsoka pulled off some pretty awesome moves in her duel with Vizsla! The ending battle scene was very cool! With droids and Mando's fighting, Ahsoka and Pre dueling, snow flying everywhere, and Lux and R2 trying to escape! I loved it when Ahsoka said, "I didn't miss!" Ahsoka really does like riding on top of vehicles while repelling enemy fire! And she's really good at it, too! The fist fight between Ahsoka and Bo, was great! The ending was soooo sad! But at least it leaves hope for another episode with Lux in it! It made me shed a tear when they each touched the glass!

Overall, great episode! I can't wait to see more like it(particularly more of Lux and Ahsoka!) Until next time, MTFBWY!
