I have the entire set of movie theater Star Wars movies. I opened this one to play it and found it was missing. I desperately wanted to replace it with the same version. I've watched it many times. If you are a Star Wars fan, you shouldn't be without this movie. I gave it 4 stars because the original movie came out on VHS and changes were made to it before issuing it on DVD. A final decision was made that the original versions of the first 3 movies made will not be issued in DVD format.

What can I say about Star Wars that nobody has already mentioned? Star Wars is a masterpiece. Empire Strikes Back is probably the best of the original trilogy. It's darker, more complex, has a lot of character development and an amazing score (the work of the amazing John Williams!). The acting is superb and the script is top-notch. All three original movies are great but Empire really stands out. I highly recommend watching the whole original trilogy, especially this one.
This is the best in the Saga! Following the story of 'A New Hope' The Rebellion are hiding from the Empire in the ice planet Hoth. The Empire has found out where the Rebellion is and throws a full fledged attack against the Republic to get Luke Skywalker. But the Rebellion get away in time, and Luke goes his seperate direction to go to the last surviving Jedi Master Yoda, whom he heard of by Obi-Wan Kenobi. It is a TERRIFIC movie and is very much worth seeing.
Worth buying just for the original theatrical release included in the set; the updated version of this film was purposeless. Lucas and the series peaked at "Empire".
