I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.
I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Return of the Jedi is a nice conclusion to the original trilogy and it is very entertaining and has some of the best moments of the franchise.However the issues are very obvious, the Ewoks and everything surrounding them. They aren't bad but they are definitely weak when compared to everything else in the film. I could have ignored them but the Ewoks subplot in this film is quite sizeable and takes up a lot of the runtime.Now the negatives are out of the way, Return of the Jedi has lots of things to love. There is the great opening where Han gets rescued from Jabba the Hutt, the speeder bike chase, the amazing Darth Vader/Luke/Emperor fight sequence and the ending.Overall, this film is very good but doesn't quite compare to Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back. Some things can feel a bit rushed at times due to the Ewoks subplot taking up more than enough runtime but other than that, this film is great.
This movie was great. I loved the beginning even though it got a little slow at some points. The old team got back together finally. Jabba was a character they quickly silenced off, with Carrie Fisher donning a bikini, which got every teenage boy horny. I wasn't a huge fan off that. Them they went to Endor where they met the Ewiks, who I personally thought they were cute. How they were able to take out the best of the Empire's best; I'll never know. The end was awesome with the destruction of the Death Star. Everyone survived ending this beautiful and fantastic trilogy for now.
The highlight of this movie is of course, Lukes battle with Vader. It shows how the young Jedi has grown, as well as the point where he could destroy what's left of his father, and doesn't. Palpatine is quite evil and easy to not like, and the space battles are as usual, brilliant. The Ewoks show Lucas fear of technology and he uses them to show that nature wins over technology. (Reminds me of Tolkien who also feared technology). A fun movie I only wish the scene where Luke builds his new lightsaber was left in.
I love this movie! I like seeing as Anakin, who I loved his character, turned into darth Vader! It truly makes no sense to be bc I ADORED Anakin, I wanted him & Natalia Portmen (the senior & Queen) to live happy ever after. But we all know this doesn't happen.
