The awesome, groundbreaking conclusion to the trilogy

Rating: 9/10 (1 February 2005)

The original Star Wars films are classics, children of today's generation can still enjoy them and the adults can watch these movies and remember when they were younger. That is probably the reason why Star Wars is so popular. The effects in this movie aren't as impressive as today's CGI effects, but they certainly are impressive for over twenty years ago. The story line picks up from where The Empire Strikes Back left off at, but this movie has several events happen in order to fully conclude the classic trilogy. Think of Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, so many events happen in that movie in order to conclude that trilogy, that is similar here, only this movie doesn't have as many endings.
In this movie, Han Solo and Princess Leia are imprisoned by Jabba the Hut, and Luke needs to complete his training. That is the basic premise, but for those of you who somehow have avoided this movie for years, I won't spoil anything for you. There is plenty of action scenes, including a famous scene with hovering speeder bikes. Despite the greatness of this movie, the original Star Wars movie still remains the best one.
In some ways, Star Wars took the same path that The Matrix took. If you look at The Matrix, the original was a ground breaking film and the sequels were nothing special. The original Star Wars trilogy was an awesome, groundbreaking trilogy, but the new sequels aren't anything special.
Return of the Jedi has all of the great characters from the original movies. This includes Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, C3P0, R2D2, Darth Vader, and who could forget Chewbacca.
For those of you who have only experienced Star Wars through the The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, you don't know what you're missing. The original Star Wars movies will remain classics forever, so see them now to see what everyone is talking about.
