Synopsis

The third and final chapter in the original wondrous STAR WARS saga is RETURN OF THE JEDI. Luke (Mark Hamill) must save Han Solo (Harrison Ford) from the clutches of the monstrous Jabba the Hut, and bring down the newly reconstructed--and even more powerful--Death Star. With Han Solo imprisoned, Luke accompanies his faithful droids R2D2 (Kenny Baker) and C3PO (Anthony Daniels) in a rescue bid, with Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) and Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew) also lending a hand. After they valiantly disentangle their friends from Jabba's clutches, Luke returns to his Jedi Knight training with Jedi master Yoda. Meanwhile, the Rebel Troops amass in an attempt to see off the impending threat from Darth Vader (played by David Prowse, voiced by James Earl Jones) and his new Death Star, with the operation being lead by Han Solo. But Luke must face Vader himself if he is to become a true Jedi Knight, and as he enters into a spirited battle with his light sabre-wielding enemy, some surprising revelations await the young warrior. Includes the original theatrical version of the film.

4.0 out of 5 stars Finally, 12 Sep 2006
To be fair - these are the films I saw and loved back as a kid. No altered / added scenes, all of the dialogue that was used the first time around. (Bring my shuttle). The transfer is fine, not in anyway as bright and sharp as the 2004 set, but still the colours now look as I remember them. One small problem, ANH is a bit fuzzy in places and a small number of scenes have a 'speckled with white flickering dots' look but these are minor points. The matte errors are back in Empire and Jedi, although those in ANH are now hardly visible compared to the hideous green squares in the 2004 set. No pink cored lightsabers, no music cues drowned out and no scary Hayden. (there are no differences I can see having a quick look at the SEs) I would have liked to see them properly restored, but they didn't get it right with the last disks so I'm not really complaining. Boba Fett has a decent voice once again, no CG and Han indeed shoots Greedo in an awesome fashion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ho ho hoo ho ho..., 22 Jan 2008
By Mr. K. Richardson (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I remember seeing Return of the Jedi in my local Odeon when I was a sprog, loved it then and still love it now. The first half of the movie in Jabba's palace is superb, years later I'm still seeing creatures in the background I've never seen before! You've also got the original Max Rebo band song in this version too.

2.0 out of 5 stars If you go down to the Woods today........................., 31 Mar 2008
By Mr. D. Swan "manmonkey" - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Growing up with the Original Star Wars movie's, seeing them all in the cinema I have fond feelings for them all, all except this one. After the Dark master piece of Empire Strikes Back were treated to this rather hap hazard bag of mistakes, Don't get me wrong, there are some great bits, the speeder bike chase the Space battle outside the unfinished Death Star, but these confuse the issue, a few great bits don't make a great film, especially if the rest of the film is made up of twee simple minded Sci Fi hokum, Teddy bears prowl the woods, Luke finds out Leia is his sister in an obviously contrived plot twist, and the final Ignominy, Darth Vader turns out to of been a nice old man all the time, creaky voice and bus pass included. Even the main characters seem a little aimless, Han Solo seems redundant. Were as in Empire he was the central character, in Jedi were treated to a man out his depth and floundering, He bumbles through the film like a naughty schoolboy. It gives the movie a feeling that it's just being made up in the pub as they go along
And although there are cinema defining moments, the speeder bike chase being up there with the chariot race in Ben Hur, we're equally treated to truly awful moments. You'd be forgiven for mistaking the start of the movie for The Muppets in Space and when the first Ewok pops up on the screen I pop off for a cup of tea. And it all culminates in a battle between Darth Vader and Luke that Pales when compared to the Dark Brooding battle through Labyrinthine corridors that we were treated too in Empire, Luke and Darth seem to have forgotten how to do spinning flips and Telekinesis, they seem only able to stand constantly whacking there light sabers together like there trying to smash a Piñata,
It's not that Jedi is a particularly bad film, it's just that it's not good, after 2 such good films ending the trilogy on such a low point is such a disappointment and makes you wish for what could have been, OH Well!, Good, bad or indifferent it's an essential part of the trilogy, you can't buy the others without having this and there's certainly worse things you can do with your Saturday afternoon than watch The Return Of the Jedi.
