To many, the last brilliant 'Star Wars' film, 'Return Of The Jedi' is a film which boasts the excitement of 'The Phantom Menace's conclusion and the quality of 'The Empire Strikes Back.' 'Return Of The Jedi' is the final chapter in the 'Star Wars' saga and initially sees the arrivals of R2-D2 and C-3PO on the sandy planet Tatooine, sending a holographic message and apparently a gift from Luke Skywalker, to be sent to Jabba the Hutt to bargain for the life of the previously carbonite-incased Han Solo.
Obviously, Jabba being the sick git he is, when Leia and Luke show up he makes the former wear a golden bikini and feeds the latter to a powerful monster under Jabba's main audience chamber. Unsurprisingly the six Rebel scums (including Chewbacca and Lando) manage to overcome the uncomfortable situations on this desert island of the stars, otherwise it would have ended without Vader or Palpatine appearing once, which would have definitely pissed the art designers off a little, having to produce that montage poster without their characters even being used. The film would be short, too, very short, and George Lucas might have died from the hardcore idiot Vader fanboys.
Within the battle on Tatooine and the ceremony at the end of the film, a variety of things happen, and, like 'The Empire Strikes Back' before it, a lot of the antagonists are seen in this film. So while you'll be subject to every last detail of the Rebels' plans, you'll also notice the situation from the perspectives of Lord Vader and Emperor Palpatine.
Everything you'd want from a film is included here, with brilliant acting and stage direction, amusing script and some rather nostalgic moments. The storyline and substantial string of events boosts the performance tenfold. Another duel between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader is present here, as is a second attack against the Death Star. Also, as you might have guessed, the Emperor plays a very significant role in the film, and this gives 'Return Of The Jedi' a sort of importance and difference.
Since I was watching the super awesome DVD edition of 'Return Of The Jedi', there are a lot of additions to the original film. You may recall how disgusted some people were at this, but I personally adore these new sections. Some add more humour to the film, some nostalgia (the end scene is reminiscent of 'Revenge Of The Sith'), and the final product is still pretty brilliant. If you had any sense you would at least rent the film.
Five Out Of Five.
