Star Wars: Episode VI: Return of the Jedi

Star Wars: Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983) starring Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford. As Luke (Hamill) prepares to confront Darth Vader, Leia (Fisher) and Han (Ford), helped by the Ewoks, prepare to take down the shield generator that is protecting the new Death Star. This movie suffers only by comparison with Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back. On its own terms, it holds up quite well. The three films of the trilogy, taken as a whole, constitute one of the great achievements of 20th-century filmmaking. This DVD offers both subtitles in English and closed captions. Loved it. Grade: B+
