Greatest Star Wars film ever made! Even better than Episode IV. The Empire Strikes Back is a masterpiece! A timeless classic. A legend in film history. My absolute favorite Star Wars film. One of my top 10 favorite movies of all time. The Empire Strikes Back is on my Top 10 Best Movies of All Time list. One of the greatest films ever made. One of the greatest sequels ever made. It surpasses A New Hope. The soundtrack is outstanding and beautiful. Han and Leia make a great and beautiful couple and still remain as the greatest and most iconic romantic couple in film history. Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher have fantastic and perfect chemistry. The action in this movie is so amazing. It is a really fun movie. Episode V still has the greatest lightsaber duel ever. Darth Vader is an even cooler and better villain in this sequel than he was in A New Hope. This sequel is dark and sinister which is so great and fits perfectly with the story. This is proof that a movie doesn't need to be PG-13, R, or NC-17 rated to be dark. It's truly amazing how a PG-rated movie can be so dark and sinister. There are some pretty high stakes in this film which makes it even more emotional and greater than its predecessor. This movie has the greatest plot twist ever and the greatest cliffhanger ending ever. Irvin Kershner still remains as the best Star Wars movie director. He should have directed the Star Wars prequels instead of that cheap, arrogant, stupid, fat bastard George Lucas!

Rating: 10/10.
