Review of Return of the Jedi (1983) by Ronald H — 05 Jan 2018
A superb conclusion to one of the greatest trilogies made.
Perfect conclusion of the Hero's Journey, of Luke Skywalker, and an intriguing quest to save a father, where a son still sees a sliver of hope of redemption, and lulls the little spark there is to life.
A space battle conclusion which is satisfied, although one might still today wonder how the Executor Destroyer could go down just because it's bridge went poof, and the Ewoks being a bit much, but still keeping it within the universe of death and sacrifice.
Luke's character was the most important progressions in this one, and one may even compare him to religious statue at the end, as he more or less becomes enlightened, in a sense of Buddhism.
A shame Disney went on to completely ruin the legacy of Star Wars in The Last Jedi.
