Return of the Jedi

Pros: action sequences, aliens, characters, funny moments
Cons: the digital additions aren't really necessary

I know the exact date I first saw this film. How do I know that? Well, I purposely scheduled my road test for my driver's license that morning so that after I - hopefully - passed, I could just hop in my parents' car and shoot over to the local ...

Pros: Plenty of action and adventure, Luke's battle with the Dark Side...
Cons: Loses some of the zest of the previous films, too much reliance on uninteresting creatures

Return of the Jedi is the final part of the original Star Wars trilogy (before they started doing the prequels). It does seem a bit strange that parts 4, 5, and 6 of a saga would be considered a trilogy, but that seems to be how creator George ...

Pros: End of the series, Mark Hammill, Special effects
Cons: Ewoks, Story running out of ideas

Return of the Jedi (1983)   "You must confront Vader; only then a Jedi will you be." Yoda The third episode in the continuing space opera of Star Wars was 1983's Return of the Jedi. The ...

Pros: An emotional and satisfying ending to the saga
Cons: Kind of goofy in places

Welcome to my Return of the Jedi review, where I attempt to inform and educate you on a movie that you've probably already seen countless times and had more nerds than the 501st Legion tell you all about it. But I'm going to give it a shot ...

Pros: Jabba the Hutt, Emperor, best Space Battle of all 4 movies
Cons: (wincing as I write this).....acting? Death Star II

For many years (from the ages of ten to about sixteen or so) Return of the Jedi was my favorite of the Star Wars Trilogy, and I still have a soft spot for it. I remember in 1983 I was ten years old, my family was suffering from Reaganomics, and my dad...

Pros: Good script; stunning effects and dazzling space battles; a classic John Williams score
Cons: A bit talky...to some, the Ewoks and to others, the Special Edition version is sacrilege....

Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, written by Larry Kasdan and George Lucas and directed by the late Richard Marquand, closes the Classic Trilogy that chronicles the adventures of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo and Princess Leia during the Galactic ...

Pros: Ewoks, fantastic ending
Cons: underappreciated

I am aware that most serious Star Wars fans are slightly embarrassed by this final portion of the trilogy, in large part due to the Ewoks, but I stand by my opinion of this movie as the best of the three. It includes that incredible scene in Jabba the ...

Pros: The Best Space Adventure Movie Series Created Yet.
Cons: You have to see Episodes IV. and V. to really understand it.

(Note: These three STAR WARS reviews are in celebration of the STAR WARS TRILOGY films, to be released in September, 2004 on DVD as a boxed set, with George Lucas, the man ultimately behind STAR WARS, giving a creator's commentary, along with ...

Pros: The special effects and the return of characters we care about.
Cons: That I can't get it on DVD

Return of The Jedi was not only the best of the three Star Wars movies, it was also the one that tied all of the various story lines into one neat bow and delivered them to us with more special effects and more of the characters we had grown to...

Pros: .
Cons: .

Return Of The Jedi is the final episode of George Lucas's Star Wars trilogy. It begins right where E mpire Strikes Back left us, Luke needs to return to Degobah to finish Jedi school, Han Solo has been ...

Pros: The Battle Of The Great Pit Of Carkoon
Cons: Ewoks cop some undeserved flak

Being able to re-watch the original Star Wars trilogy on network TV has been a great experience. Not only that, but Saturday night is the perfect time to put them on, seeing as there’s nothing else worth watching and it saves me a few dollars by not ...

Pros: A brilliant masterpiece of modern cinema, the definitive Space Opera.
Cons: The story overshadows the actors.

Star Wars Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi (1983) Directed by Richard Marquand Story by George Lucas. A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... Luke Skywalker has returned to his home planet of Tatooine in an attempt to ...

Pros: Still riveting and what not.
Cons: Just not as riveting.

Note: Don't read this review if you haven't seen Episode 4 and 5 of Star Wars. If you head to Metacritic.com, you'll discover that Return of the Jedi never even received that good of reviews -- its average score is a 52 (about a C), and ...

Pros: a great conclusion to the star wars movie
Cons: they added Jar Jar's voice into the orignal trilogy "shivers"

Finally we get to the last episode in the saga Return of the Jedi and it picks up a little time after Empire strikes back. For those who have not seen empire strikes back this is what happen. Darth Vader admitted to Luke that he was his father and Han ...

Pros: Includes every aspect about Star Wars we love
Cons: Sometimes looks like George Lucas was too ambitious for its own good

There’s a reason Return of the Jedi was snubbed for any Oscar nominations back in 1983: From a purely technical standpoint, this is one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. The performances just aren’t as good as they were previously, the editing stinks, ...
