The ultimate entertainment

Rating: 10/10 (12 June 1999)

Like millions of people in the world, the Star Wars saga has filled me with great pleasure. George Lucas really managed to create a modern mythology. This story is eternal. I believe that the second chapter of the trilogy is the best film of the three. The Empire Strikes Back takes you and brings you far away, in a fantastic world, through a captivating adventure. What makes this film a masterpiece ? It is pure delight. The duel between Luke and Vader is memorable, it contains wonderful moments, particularly the one when Darth Vader tells Luke he is his father. The movie also introduces new characters, notably Yoda, the unforgettable Jedi master. The action sequences are really enjoyable. This movie is a summary of all the Star Wars magic. George Lucas has given the term "entertainment" a noble dimension. The force will be with him. Always...
