Incredible movie-making on every level.

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2006)

The characters, the drama, the comedy between Han & Leia. The special effects and of course the unforgettable introduction of Yoda. The best Star Wars film of them all and deserving of a place within the IMDb top 5. Harrison Ford establishes himself as one of the most masculine action heroes ever, setting a prelude for his amazing turn as Indiana Jones. The ending, which literally leaves the audience hanging made me love the story more and left me wanting to see more of this amazing epic.
The unfortunate thing is that a film like Ordinary People, which was good, won the Oscar in 1980, but will not have nearly the impact on our culture or future film-making that both Episodes IV & V have and will continue to have.
