Review by David Wilcock
3½ stars out of 4
And so we come to the final part of the Star Wars trilogy. Many people
consider this to be the least of the trilogy, but I find this one just
as entertaining as the other two. The start of the film, in Jabbas
palace, is good, and right through to the end, the film is highly
enjoyable. The film seems to centre more on action scenes than actual
plot and character relationships, but this dosen't affect it one bit.
The director handles the action and plot revelations very well, John
Williams booming score goes with the film very well, and the special
effects are excellent. OK, so Marquand may spend a bit more time than
needed than the Ewoks, but he makes up with the storming of the shield
generator by the Empire, and the battle that follows in space.
So, I find this film to be entertaining, hugely enjoyable fun, and a
fitting end to the trilogy. If there was a bit less Ewoks, and maybe
some Empire scenes (the bad guys hardly feature in this film except at
the end) this would be perfect. However, it is great as it is! Highly
recommended.
