Review of The Empire Strikes Back (1980) by Pawel W — 25 Mar 2018
Trigger warning. I don't think Empire is better than A New Hope, heck, I don't even like it as much as Revenge of the Sith. Yes, the scenes with Yoda and Luke training on Dagobah are pure gold, the duel with Vader was also great and an enormous improvement over what we previously saw.
But the battle for Hoth was just alright, and the Cloud City was a boring filler. And that was a majority of the movie, so that's a problem. This is the only movie of the original 6 that had me occasionally bored, but on the upside - It never made me cringe at a bad line either.
