Movie Reviews of Star Wars, Episode VI- Return of the Jedi (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: "The circle is now complete"
Summary: 5 Stars
"Return of the Jedi" brings the original Star Wars trilogy to a thrilling close, mirroring the later "Revenge of the Sith." The movie opens in the subterranean pit home of the giant space slug, Jabba the Hutt, with Princess Leia his captive in a metallic bikini. The handsome Han Solo now serves as a decorative installation. Luke Skywalker, clad in black like a monk,comes to Jabba to rescue his friends. But it's easier said than done....
"Return" has exciting sequences- from Luke&his friends battling it out over a desert creature that is a toothed pit, to Luke battling one of Jabba's cave trolls for sport. Luke,Leia,and Han end up having to destroy the new Death Star--but they have to go to Endor,the land of the Ewoks. (Endor has its roots in the Bible. In the Old Testament, King Saul consults the Witch of Endor to speak to the dead prophet Samuel) Endor is a beautiful forest planet-mirroring Dagobah,Yoda's rural home as well as Alderaan,the destroyed planet of Leia. Again, it is about the triumph of Nature. Luke ends up battling the Emperor,as well as redeeming his father Darth Vader. One of the most gripping scenes is when Luke removes Darth's mask, revealing his ravaged,pale face. Darth sacrifices himself to save his son. The father/son bond is redeemed (strangely,he doesn't reconcile with his daughter Leia-maybe the fact he had her tortured in "A New Hope" scuttled that) The finale shows the peoples of the universe rejoicing. Han&Leia finally declare their love for each other.
"Return of the Jedi" is not the strongest of the trilogy-"Empire" takes those honors. Still,it's great fun and stands as a classic. It's a classic worth returning to again and again.
