After reading through all of those reviews here on IMDB, I couldn't find myself in such a massive agreement with even the most negative reviews...And yet, the bad rating isn't justified in my opinion at all.
(-Disclaimer- *Opinions "may" vary* -Disclaimer end-)
Let me get to the point:
The episode brings a lot of Star Wars moments (duh, it's Star Wars),but yet they didn't looked off, they fit perfectly into the lore and most importantly, they put a huge smile on my face as they rolled over the screen. Most people complain over the scenes with Omega, "too often", "rename the show after her" etc. Ignorant enough to ignore, that she gets implemented in a non annoying way, her charecter gets build up, what do you expect, she is a kid anyway, Omega kicking off like the rest of the trained Bad Batch would enrage everyone for sure...A nice cliffhanger to the end and making me think about all thlse possibilities that are awaiting us. The Crème brûlée of all is yet a small detail, making those "Clones of Death" personalities with heart and thoughts, (or not so much) because "They are different".
Wrapping it all up...
The Bad Batch surprised and mostly entertained me well enough to give a clear and solid 8 star review.
