Review of The Empire Strikes Back (1980) by Kj P — 18 Dec 2015
Startling relationships, dark pasts, and high-octane space battles surround this brilliant sequel to the beloved "Star Wars" film, "A New Hope." The first half of this film is more of the same, with a few new characters and a much better screenplay; However, the second half surpasses it's predecessor in every way.
Filled with amazing twists and brilliant dialogue, "Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back" is arguably better than the original, which is almost impossible for me to decide between, because it is part of a saga that doesn't feel distant from the first at all.
With great direction, fantastic writing, and visuals, that, for 1980's is spectacular. Fantastic filmmaking all around!
