The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

Don't know how they did it, especially with the sequel curse, but I would say this is even better than the first movie! The acting was stellar and there were more jokes tossed around. The Hoth battle was fantastic and is one of the best scenes especially from the time frame the movie was made in. New characters were introduced as Han and Leia's love grew. It was especially hard to say goodbye. But then the ending Darth Vader being Luke's father was just an amazing plot twist!! Highly impressive!!!

I can understand that many fans love this film, but for me it's the second-best of the Star Wars films (with A New Hope as number one in my opinion) and it's one of the best sequels. I praise this film as having the best soundtrack and the best battle sequences. Plus we get some new faces in new and exotic locations. And that revelation (you'll see what I mean). From what I heard, this was the least successful film of the saga but it's still good as the secondary film. And that lightsaber duel between the main hero and the main villain. I recommend watching A New Hope first just to see how everything starts, then watching this. I should warn you, it gets a little dark, but it's nothing too scary.

Dude from a galaxy far away, falls in with a bunch of other righteous folks fighting against "The Man" for equality and freedom for everyone in the Galaxy. In the action packed process, there are huge spaceships, laser cannons, giant worms, asteroid fields, cities in the sky, hot babes, romance, best friends, lots of fighting...and the main character meets his real dad, after his dad cuts off his arm. Bad guy wins, good guy lives to fight another day. Live Long and Prosper!

What can I say about the fifth episode "The Empire Strikes Back," I really like the movie, the fifth episode has kept the atmosphere and an easy-naive narrative.Special effects have become larger, the plot has become more interesting and only fuels interest in the next film.In general, this part has everything for the adventure saga count: curious right hero (Luke Skywalker), wise mentor (Obivan), a more wise teacher (Yoda), a humorous steep friend (Captain Solo), which no, but still love Princess Leia and Solo), personal comedians who get in the way (Citripio and R2-T2) and the worst enemy (Darth Vader).The film was successful, yet Lucas would still be interested in the audience, we all were wondering what to wake up with the future Jedi Luke, the smugglers of Solo and Chuya, Princess Leia and with two droids.Back in the movie, a character appeared, the most powerful, wise Jedi Yoda, he is beyond praise. If in the first film the end was happy, then in the second film the end of the open viewer thinks that wakes on. I used to think that George Lucas took all the parts, but in the fifth and sixth films he was a screenwriter.But the film has become more alive, large-scale and interesting, the soundtrack is still magnificent, the actors' play has improved, many say that the fifth film is the best in the saga, I do not argue. The film is a masterpiece.
