'Night' delivers Star Wars into unfamiliar territory, as Osha and Mae's twin paths become muddier—and bloodier—than ever.
There’s a lot of violence in Star Wars . But a lot of Star Wars ’ violence, and its approach to it, is rooted in the abstract—whole planets gone in the blink of an eye, grand battles in space and on the ground; even on smaller scales, its duels are less about the act of violence, and more chivalrous dances. But rarely is Star Wars akin to a slasher movie. And in “Night,” The Acolyte just gave us one hell of a Star Wars slasher.
But the heavy-handedness of the last few weeks setting up that Qimir had more to him going on now feels a little clunkier in context with the reveal, especially contrasted with the strength of all this action being just how unpredictable it felt. But that doesn’t stop Qimir from delivering as barnstorming a thesis here as he does a barrage of lightsaber attacks.
