It was the perfect episode of 'Andor' and the wait for some gripping action was worth it. The sentiment was echoed by fans who caught Episode 6 and the suicide mission by the rebels ended in their favor but had its casualties. Passion, cause, and greed were the emotions on full display, making it one of the more thrilling chapters as the season reached its midway mark.

The episode picks up with Cassian (Diego Luna) and the rest of the rebels led by Vel Sartha (Faye Marsay). Running at around 50 minutes, 45 if you cut down on the introduction and the end credits, the mission of raiding the Imperial garrison to steal the payroll proves to be the sole focus, and Tony Gilroy — the master of spy thrillers proves why he's the best in the business when this particular genre is concerned. Here's a look at some of the rave reviews from Star Wars ardents.
