The second entry in George Lucas' Star Wars trilogy finds Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), the green-as-grass hero from the first film, now a seasoned space warrior. Luke's Star Wars cohorts Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) are likewise more experienced in the ways and means of battling the insidious Empire, as represented by the brooding Darth Vader (body of David Prowse, voice of James Earl Jones). And, of course, "The Force," personified by the ghost of Luke's mentor Ben Kenobi (Alec Guinness), is with them all. Retreating from Vader's minions, Luke ends up, at first, on the Ice Planet Hoth, and then the tropical Dagobah. Here he makes the acquaintance of the gnomish Yoda (voice of Frank Oz), whose all-encompassing wisdom comes in handy during the serial-like perils of the rest of the film. Before the film's open-ended climax, we are introduced to the apparently duplicitous Lando Calrissian (Billy Dee Williams) and are let in on a secret that profoundly affects both Luke and his arch-enemy, Vader. Many viewers consider this award-winning film the best of the Star Wars movies, and its special-effects bonanza was pure gold at the box office. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Review For Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back

In many ways the new film is a better film than Star Wars, visually more exciting, more artful and meticulous in detail.
-TIME Magazine

The Empire Strikes Back is a worthy sequel to Star Wars, equal in both technical mastery and characterization, suffering only from the familiarity with the effects generated in the original and imitated too much by others.
James Harwood-Variety

Irvin Kershner directed the actors this time around, and without the benefit of Lucas's personal affection they seem stiffer, more clenched.
Dave Kehr-Chicago Reader

An extended ricochet from one incendiary set-piece battle to another which still finds time to attend to plot, pace and character.
-Time Out

The total effect is fast and attractive and occasionally amusing. Like a good hot dog, that's something of an achievement in a field where unpalatable junk is the rule.
Judith Martin-Washington Post

In the glory days of science fiction, critics wrote about the 'sense of wonder.' That's what The Empire Strikes Back creates in us
Susan Stark-Detroit News

See it and prepare to be captivated by the most spellbinding sci-fi film of them all.
Jeffrey Lyles-Lyles' Movie Files

Director Irvin Kershner's imaginative supervision of George Lucas's brainchild gives this second part of the first Star Wars trilogy a truly epic dimension, adding a mature, philosophical aspect to the nonstop barrage of brilliant special effects.
Alan Jones-Radio Times

It's darker than the original, and perhaps less well structured, but it combines gorgeous visuals and surprisingly deep human emotions.
-Total Film

It's not up to the original.
Ralph Novak-People Magazine

The best of the original series, but the most intense, too.
Charles Cassady-Common Sense Media

Continues to set the standards for sequels to this day...
Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed

O melhor de toda a série, este episódio abraça o potencial sombrio do universo concebido por Lucas e consegue equilibrar com eficiência os aspectos infantis da narrativa com os momentos de maior densidade.
Pablo Villaca-Cinema em Cena

Despite ... an unresolved storyline that paves the way for its dismal sequel, Empire remains in many ways the best (indeed the last good) Star Wars film.
Steve Biodrowski-Cinefantastique

A more mature instalment than its predecessor, loaded with spectacular special effects and efficiently written, this may well be the pinnacle of the saga.
-Film4

Each section of the film has a stand-out sequence that inspires hyperbole like 'best ever.'
Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com

The most imaginative and emotionally connectable "Star Wars" film and, with the exception of "Revenge of the Sith," also the darkest.
Phil Villarreal-Arizona Daily Star

The second act is very strong, cutting back and forth between Luke training with Yoda and Han, Leia, Chewie and C-3P0 fighting the Empire. And it's paced leisurely enough that you get to know the characters a little bit.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid

The best of the films.
Scott Nash-Three Movie Buffs

Sci-fi cinema at its best.
Michael Dequina-TheMovieReport.com

Everything you loved about A New Hope and more.

The backbone of the Star Wars saga… takes the story and themes of the first film into deeper waters.
