Review of The Empire Strikes Back (1980) by Brandon S — 16 Dec 2015
Its darker and significantly more intense than the original chapter, but it's equally adventurous and entertaining. This movie has a much greater appreciation for the depth and the philosophy behind the Star Wars franchise than any of the other chapters.
Irvin Kershner takes up the helm as director of this juggernaut with so much feverish ambition and vision that it's impossible not to be blown away by the, then young, franchise's transition from sci-fi blockbuster with a heart to sci-fi blockbuster with a soul.
