Why. Why! WHY!!!!
Why does every goddamn Star Wars story insist on a redemption arc? Surely they won't give Reva one....
{sigh}
Yes they will. They gave one of the most irredeemable characters in the history of the franchise one - why wouldn't they give Reva one?
Here's the funny part, though - since Disney went ahead and decided to draw the sting and in the process turn all the attention to Reva, they've at least convinced people to overlook that one of these inquisitors has REALLY sucked.
The 5th Brother is ****ing cringeworthy. He's just awful. Every time he's on the screen I just want him to shut up and go away. Part of the reason people are dumping on Reva as a character is that her foil, more than Obi Wan, is actually the 5th Brother. And you can't play off a guy doing that poor a job (though McGregor did manage to pull it off nicely in Revenge of the Sith - but who can expect that of anyone that isn't Ewan - he's awesome).
Man that character blows.
