I find it hard to find someone who hasn’t watched the whole Star Wars story, but in this review I will talk about the first three, last three to come out. Confused, well the first three released are telling the last part of the story involving Luke Skywalker; these mind blowing adventures in one box set is just to die for.
A new hope…This is just floorless from starting point to end point, groundbreaking CGI effects wonderful journey story and great characters…just satisfied Mr Lucas had the limitations of film making back then which compelled him to be more creative and not surrounding himself with YES men as he does today otherwise would most likely have ended up with the crap of the more fresh chapters of the tale.
The Empire Strikes Back….This is my fave of all of them, a much-needed darker story that has one of the very best revelling twists of them all…superb action with the Millenium Falcon dog fight escape and the final light sabre duel and the coolest personality of all…Bobba Fett.
Return Of The Jedi….this is the weaker of the 3 but still merits a billion star rating (as do the other 2) for its sheer entertainment…people complain about it being like “muppets in space” but the rescue at the beginning, the high speed biker chase thru the forest of Endor, the light sabre duel and last dog fight in space and to see the Death Star demolished from inside definitely make up for those vexing small Carebears in the middle of the film.
If you love Star Wars and don’t own this box set it’s a must buy. On the other hand if my review has tempted you to watch Star Wars then buy it! It’s a great box set, I would recommend buying the box set with Episodes 1 to 3 first though to watch the story unfold, a must buy!
