This movie, and the other part of the trilogy, as well, are the best of Lucas Film.

all sci/fi fans.
Wow,
Just wow. This is one of the best films ever, better than the first, and that's saying a mouthfull.

I love the action and excitement as much as the next STAR WARS fan, but it creates a wonderful balance to have a middle film where we can stop, catch our breath and gear up for the big finale.
I'm very glad Lucasfilm has finally released the original trilogy onto DVD. I've seen many complaints about the lack of quality in the transfer. I guess I've gotten so used to those "Special ... Read More
