Final "star wars" movie original is great! - Return of the Jedi Reviews

In the third and final "Star Wars", we get a great story and great visuals, along with legendary characters and actors! The direction is also better this time around! As we get to understand the characters and their personalities a little bit more this time around, the story closely draws the audience in to the world of stunning technical details and romance. Luke Skywalker has teamed up and reunited with his friends, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, C-3P0, and his favorite droid, R2-D2, to stop an army of stormtroopers and the evil Darth Vader from destroying the Ewok planet of Endor. While Han and Leia defend the planet and the frightened Ewoks from the stormtroopers of Vader's army, Luke finds himself facing the Emperor known as Darth Sidious. In order to save his friends, Luke must fight in a Lightsaber battle against Vader and the Emperor and win. The stunning work that went in to this movie was stunning for it's time and if you think about it, even today it looks like a buried treasure! Like the last film, the this movie had a different director. Richard Marquand took the place of George Lucas and Irvin Kershner to direct this movie. Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher, for the first time really, give us truly believeable performances and are perfect in a movie together! This is one of those "Star Wars" movies that did not get much attention and was considered the fan's least favorite of the original series! But I still think that this is a movie for all ages and will be appreciated by anyone! George Lucas later made his "Star Wars" prequel trilogy beginning with "Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace" and ending with the third movie prequel, "Star Wars: Episode 3 - Revenge Of The Sith". The middle movie movie prequel was "Star Wars: Episode 2 - Attack Of The Clones". (See reviews). This review was to encourage other people that haven't seen any of the "Star Wars" movies to become fans or at least come to appreciate the work that was put in to this movie. If this review didn't help you, then it's okay.

Better than "esb"! - Return of the Jedi Reviews

This film is terribly underrated. So what, it has killer teddy bears? So what, it has dancing muppets singing "Lapti Nek!" (which really means Workin' Out). This film has great action sequences, a great light-sabre battle, and silent moments that outweigh those in Empire. Plus, Emperor Palpatine is GREAT! Rent the original edition, not the Special Edition or DVD, because the last two have horribly animated singers singing a song called JEDI ROCKS! Besides, the Dvd has Hayden Christensen (Anakin Skywalker Episodes II, III) in it at the end! His evil stare and grin come with him! Shield you kids' eyes!

A great conclusion to a great series. - Return of the Jedi Reviews

This is probably the best climax for a movie I've ever seen. It kills Return of the King by a longshot. I have to say though, I had to give it an A instead of an A+ for a couple of reasons. 1. I find it hard to believe that the Empire could build a new Death Star in the short time between Empire Strikes Back and the start of this movie. 2. The acting was good, but the lightsaber duel at the end is supposed to be the ultimate lightsaber duel, but compared to some of the lightsaber duels in the Prequels, this one is definately second best. 3. The visuals aren't as stunning as the ones in Revenge of the Sith. Not at all. Even though they made some visuals better in recent re-releases, they still just aren't as good as the ones in the prequels. These are most of the reasons that brought this movie down. I did like the very end, though, with the celebration on all the different planets. The ewoks were branded into the storyline, which I liked. They rimind me much of the Gungans from The Phantom Menace. Plus, in the new DVD Trilogy set, when Luke looks at the ghosts of Obi-wan, yoda, and Anakin at the very end, look for a new surprise that will have you smiling and thinking of the prequels.

A fine finish to the trilogy - Return of the Jedi Reviews

Return of the Jedi is a fitting conclusion to the greatest trilogy in screen history.While some of the acting performances are over the top, the spirit of good over evil rings truer now then twenty years ago! This is my personal favorite of all the star wars movies,pre-quels included.

Jedi-simply the best - Return of the Jedi Reviews

Return of the Jedi is the best of the original STAR WARS trilogy, as well as the entire six movie series. The final chapter is played to perfection as we see a great lightsaber duel, death star battle scene, and both Luke and Anakin (Vader) fulfill their destines. A fitting end to one of the greatest series of all time!

Return of the jedi - Return of the Jedi Reviews

This is probably the most exciting in the trilogy (original 3). You kind of think that Darth Vader is going to kill Luke because Luke keeps saying he won't fight. The ewoks are pretty cool, and they are a big reason that the Rebels defeated the Imperial troops. The best parts of the movie are when Lando and the Rebels are outside the second Death Star. No dought that the battle between Luke and Vader is a great conclusion, especially when Vader kills the Emperor and turns away from the Dark Side. Great movie! If you haven't seen it, rent it. It's no waste of money!
