Review of The Empire Strikes Back (1980) by Bradley W — 18 Sep 2016
The Empire Strikes Back is the best film in the entire Star Wars saga, and is quite possibly the greatest sci-fi movie of all time. In case you don't know, I love Star Wars. Its one of the biggest influences of my life and the entire original trilogy is, in my opinion, the greatest series of movies ever made.
And while the original Star Wars is a classic and a masterpiece, its The Empire Strikes Back which took the series into a much darker, smarter and emotional path. It raised the stakes in every way and gave our heroes many new dangers.
Darth Vader evolves the greatest cinematic villain of all time in this film,One of the best things this film introduced to us was Yoda. Yoda is one of the greatest characters in the history of fiction.
He is a wise and brilliantly crafted character brought to life by Frank Oz. Yoda teaches Luke the true nature of the Force and has given me life lessons that have applied to my own life. In that way I believe he is a teacher to us all.
