This episode is a pastiche of gangster movies. The Hutts are shown with references various gangster favourites such as Marlon Brando from The Godfather and Edward G. Robinson from 1930s gangster movies.
The story is fun and has a lot of humour with a bit of darkness that gives it some edge.
One moment seemed oddly illogical as a droid declares the device containing information about the Hutt's illegal activities has been removed from a tomb when they should not have known it had been there. But it could be glossed over as a very quickly observant assumption I suppose.
Apart from that it is all entertaining and there is a great battle between Cad Bane and his 2 Jedi pursuers.
It also does some good universe building as we see beautifully animated alien worlds and see more of how the Hutts operate.
The dark twist to the escape of Ziro is a great touch.
My rating: 8/10.
