Review of The Empire Strikes Back (1980) by Hamish%20 B — 23 Dec 2017
I started this account to spew bile at Rian Johnson for the abomination that is the last Jedi- then I thought I would try to cheer myself up by reviewing this and other Star Wars films. Okay so pretty much everyone agrees that this one is the best, and I'm no different, there is real menace in the empire and Vader is mesmerising as the villain who's only real goal is to reach out to his son.
Somehow Darth Vader seems to convey profound emotion with a bucket on his head. This movie is great, and Luke Skywalkers story continues to combine high adventure with real heart and soul and of course one of the greatest twists in cinema history.
Luke goes through a lot and is well on his way to becoming a Jedi Knight. But don't bother watching it, because in the end he SPOLER ALERT ends up milking a space cow and cuts himself off from the force, so that he can abandon everything he once stood for and sit around breathing his own farts until he finally dies by giving himself a hair cut and colour with the force.
