*** This review contains spoilers ***The Empire Strikes Back is my least favourite of the original trilogy, I guess I just prefer the more light-hearted nature of A New Hope and Return of the Jedi (plus when has darkness become a measure of quality?), as well as the sense of closure given by those films but calling it my least favourite is like saying this pizza with 19 slices of pepperoni is it n... read more

Darker and better than "New hope"

“So, "The Empire Strikes Back" is a sequel to the previous part. After the release of the first episode, the budget, the fans appeared, and, accordingly, the quality improved!

The fifth episode is the darkest and even the best in the original trilogy (in my personal opinion), and for many in the entire franchise.

Here we will hear the famous Imperial March for the first time, learn all the greatness of the Empire under the leadership of Vader, as well as the formation of Luke as a Jedi.

New characters have added color to the franchise, some have already become iconic and famous among many (the same Boba Fett).

This fascinating story will feature plot twists (for sure many people understood what I was talking about) and a very addictive atmosphere of h” read more

Pros and Cons of Films: Vol. 1 (121 movies items)

"Pros: The cinematography, especially for the planets Hoth and Dagobah, You feel like you’re on the planets Hoth and Dagobah. It’s action packed. Yoda, and Frank Oz’s performance as Yoda. The epic soundtrack, by John Williams. The cliffhangers. Darth Vader, at his most terrifying. It’s a great continuation of Star Wars: A New Hope. The overall tone, of the movie. The first appearances of Lando Clarrisan, and Boba Fett. Luke, Hans, and Leia. The effects work, especially Yoda an"
