SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary The Acolyte's review-bombing looks even more absurd after episode 5. Helmed by Leslye Headland of Russian Doll fame, it's no exaggeration to say The Acolyte has been one of the most controversial Star Wars shows to date. Truth is infinitely stranger than fiction when it comes to The Acolyte, with the real-world story of this show involving everything from review-bombing to death threats against Wookieepedia editors.
The Acolyte Backlash Has Always Been Exaggerated The fury is exaggerated In truth, The Acolyte's backlash and review-bombing has always looked more than a little fake. At time of writing, The Acolyte has a Rotten Tomatoes audience score of just 13 percent, meaning it's officially ranked below the Star Wars Holiday Special - which seems unlikely.
