Up until the sixth and last episode of the Star Wars saga, which finally ended in 2005, I had always looked at this 1983 entry as my favorite film of the long-running series. The varied action scenes and really different characters (Jabba The Hut, furry woodland creatures, etc.) made this a particularly appealing movie.
None of the action ever focused too long in one spot, either. The last half hour exemplifies this the most as the scene switches every few minutes from the woods to the battle among space ships to the individual laser-duel between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader.
Another nice characteristic this film had that the two previous did not was the absence of in-fighting between two of the stars. Gone was the incessant bickering between Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford. Finally, everyone was on the same page! It was nice to see.
In the end, this was simply a wonderful adventure tale, more than anything else.

I bought this series (episodes IV-VI) because I wanted the original Star Wars (not the remake) on DVD. George Lucas and his cohorts at 20th Century have delivered a completely bogus and mediocre (at best) release of the original. It reflects Lucas's contention that he didn't really make the movies the way he wanted to (then, why DID he make them?). Any other DVD of similar chronological date has at the very least had a 5.1 soundtrack - not these (despite the totally bogus and misleading representations on the DVD case).
All this does is showcase the wanton money-making greed of George Lucas and 20th Century Fox.
DO NOT BUY THIS!!!! It's CRAP and only feeds the Lucas money machine.

There is zero chemistry between Carrie Fischer and Harrison Ford, so their silly 'romance' strikes an off chord here. I hadn't seen this since its theatrical premiere, so I was struck by the relative lack of special effects and how primitive were the existing ones, especially the Jaba the Hut scenes where all the characters are obviously fake. Again, as in the previous episode, the human dialogue is the weakest part of the film. The 'plot' is a feel-good theme, and the grand finale is a bit of a tear-jerker. In 25 years, this has held up relatively well, but seems a bit shallow by today's standards.

Everyone thought Anakin Skywalker was the Chosen One, but the now the real one has been found and is ready. It is finally time for LUKE Skywalker to face off with his father and the Emperor. But Luke refuses to kill Darth Vader, and instead tries to turn him back to the Light Side. You are sure to enjoy the results of this! This movie also involves Leia befriending some cute furry creatures called Ewoks, who can actually be quite dangerous when someone they like is provoked. You'll see what I mean when you see the movie - as I hope you will do!
