I haven't seen the theatrical cut since I wore out the VHS tapes when I was a kid and it was an incredible experience. So the negative one "Silverscreen edition"* of Star Wars (episode IV A New Hope not include) Is absolutely gorgeous. ||| Join our Discord! ||| Question?

And as cinema, The Empire Strikes Back continues the quality of excellence that the original set. George Lucas continues his tradition of writing about futuristic Homeric like heroes in a galaxy far away. As Lando Kalrissian, Billy Dee Williams steps into the Star Wars pantheon of heroes and proves quite useful if not quite on the up and up. Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher and company seek out Ford's old friend Lando Kalrissian to repair his ship after Ford plays a dangerous cat and mouse game with Darth Vader's battle cruiser. Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker is given a mission in a dream by the late Alec Guinness, killed in the first Star Wars film to receive Jedi Knight Advanced Training from the legendary Yoda and he seeks him out. When the attack comes, it comes full force, the rebels flee as do Luke Skywalker and R2D2 in one ship and Princess Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca and C3PO. In the meantime the Empire still searches for the rebel army in The Empire Strikes Back. They've taken refuge in a frozen planet called Hoth much like George Washington and the Continental Army at Valley Forge. Though the intrepid three heroes of Star Wars destroyed the Death Star commanded by Darth Vader, the rebel army is still on the run. Reviewed by bkoganbing 9 / 10 Exile To Hoth There are so many incredible moments in this. There may be one or two stiff additions but most of them actually help. Even the Special Edition is the best of the original trio. The combative romance between Leia and Han is the best. This is the best overall film in the series. There are superior popcorn movies in the Star Wars franchise although there is plenty of eye-popping action in this one. Meanwhile, Luke goes to the Dagobah system and finds Jedi Master Yoda. Leia, Chewie, and Han with C-3PO escape on the Millennium Falcon eventually ending up in Lando Calrissian's Cloud City. Darth Vader locates the base driving the rebels on the run. Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, and Han Solo are with the Rebel forces on the secret base on the planet Hoth.

All in all, a perfect successor to an already brilliant first film. Chewabacca is hilarious, and Darth Vader is a fantastic villain, especially when voiced so magnificently by James Earl Jones. Harrison Ford is noticeably more subdued, but he is still terrific, and Frank Oz is a perfect Yoda. Mark Hamill is ever as likable as Luke, and Carrie Fisher still has her spunk and vivacity. The script is still as affectionate as ever, the pace is fast and the acting is great. The battle sequences are mesmerising, the beginning is bound to have you on the edge of your seat, but the battle between Luke and Darth Vader was simply out of this world. The story is darker than that of New Hope and perhaps more sophisticated, and I loved the fact the filmmakers made the romance between Leia and Han more developed. John Williams's score is just outstanding, epic and monumental in every way. Visually it's a marvel to look at, with the stunning special effects and highly imaginative-looking sets. Empire Strikes Back maintains all the fun of its predecessor, while even darker and more mature. I loved the original trilogy for all those reasons. I feared it wouldn't be my thing, but it was exactly that. The original trilogy of Star Wars contain three films, all of which are sophisticated, imaginative and enormous fun.
