Critics Consensus

Brisk and straightforward, "The Mines of Mandalore" efficiently dives into The Mandalorian's latest story arc with a poorly-lit adventure, getting a big lift from Katee Sackhoff's charisma.

Rolling Stone

It helps that Sackhoff is such a strong screen presence, so that even if you never saw the thriving version of Mandalore on Clone Wars, her performance and her grief sells the idea beautifully.

AV Club

The Mandalorian goes spelunking in a surprisingly productive episode.

Rated: B+

Keith Phipps

New York Magazine/Vulture

Begins with an act of misdirection from the unscrupulous (but endearing) Peli Motto. By the end, it’s starting to feel like this season has also involved some misdirection.

Rated: 4/5

Loud and Clear Reviews

All in all, episode 2 of season 3 of The Mandalorian is another strong instalment in what’s shaping up to be a great season of television.

Collider

When The Mandalorian has invited new voices into its storytelling realm, it has yielded fresh, inventive, and thoroughly charged episodes, and “Chapter 18” is no different.

Rated: A
