Summary: still the most convincing star wars movie
Review: For me, this is still the most convincing star wars movie. Its plot progression flows very naturally, and there is very little dialog that feels artificial to me. I can watch this movie over and over, and it is still entertaining every time even after all these years. It's true that the acting in this movie is pretty bad by the likes Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill, but Alec Guiness, Peter Cushing, and James Earl Jones give superb performances IMO. I'm one who prefers the Special Edition release vs. the old version, but I hope Lucas will release both on DVD.

Summary: A quickie review.
Review: Face it, Star Wars is the best trilogie ever created. It is creative, has great special effects, great writing, and good writing. That's all a movie needs. In this review I will indivually review each of the the three movies in this amazing series. First of all I need to review the movie that started it all, the movie that started one of the biggest franchises of all time...That movie being Star Wars episode four: A new Hope... Star Wars episde IV is one of the greatest movies I have ever seen. The writing is amazing the story goes a little something like this... On the desert planet of Tatooine a young boy named Luke Skywalker is living with his Aunt and Uncle. I don't want to give the movie a way so I guess I shouldn't tell you much of the story, that's just enough. Lucas is a genuis, well a genuis at writing. It is one of the coolest movies of all time. Next is the Empire strikes back, some say the best of the series. that is a really good movie. It is deeper and Darker than the original. Luke is older,and the movie is scarier. It begins on the swoy planet of Hoth on that famous battle called the battle of Hoth. The special effects and writing are even better than the first, and tha's pretty hard to beat. It is a wonderful movie. Better than the first. And lastly(my personal favorite of the series) Return of the Jedi. This is a moving wonderul movie. The special effects are better than ever in this one. Well to make a long story short the SW series is the best Sci-Fi/Fantasy film ever to hit the market.

Summary: One of the best trilogy's of all time!!!!!!
Review: This movie has always been a must for me. I have seen all three movies numerous times and I'll continue to watch them till my eyes hurt. I have not purchashed the trilogy on VHS just yet because I'm anxiously waiting for it to be converted to DVD format. When this milestone is releaseed on the scene all other movies\DVD's had better drop their release anchors before they become blown out of the water.(Just to put it lightly)

Summary: One of the BEST Sci-fi Films of all Time!
Review: The original "Star Wars" is, to this day, one of the greatest sci-fi films of all time! When it was released in 1977, no other sci-fi film came close in comparison to the quality and advancement in special effects technology that this film presented. "Star Wars" set the standard by which all other sci-fi films are judged to this day. As for the plot, many critics like to say that people continue to watch and enjoy "Star Wars" to recapture lost youth. They're wrong! Because we remain young at heart and idealistic about the future, we love films such as "Star Wars" that promote the hope of a better tomorrow when so many other things in real life have failed. Films such as "Star Wars" ignite the imagination and encourage mankind to reach for the stars! Maybe it's the critics who need to recapture their youth and idealism, both of which appear to be dead and forgotten. My thanks to George Lucas, Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Alec Guiness and the many other cast and crew that brought this remarkable film to life for countless generations to enjoy!

Summary: yoyoyoyo
Review: All 3 movies were GREAT! These movies are classics, and are for any one who likes fantasy things. I saw that this one is better than the 'original' ones, becuase they added a whole lot more in the special edition one. So the only thing left to say is: This is an amazing story fit into 3 great tapes.

Summary: The Classic STAR WARS Trilogy
Review: George Lucas' first installment in the hugely popular STAR WARS franchise is generally regarded as the greatest movie ever made. Why? Well, what's not to like? From the opening shot of the Blockade Runner accompanied by that great theme tune by John Williams, you know you're in the unique world of the STAR WARS universe. Before George's action-packed THE PHANTOM MENACE and ATTACK OF THE CLONES, A NEW HOPE was known only as STAR WARS. Audiences had never seen anything so original and amazing. Now, the series has entered into the fanboy culture all over the world. In comparison, Episode 4 seems somewhat tame compared to ATOC, but it's still an astounding adventure filled with great characters and amazing music.
From Hero Luke Skywalker's symbolic journey from his home Tatooine to the moment of victory at the finale, we are greeted with a myriad of fantastic characters, especially Han Solo, played by a pre-Indy Harrison Ford and his mate Chewbacca. And the ultimate incarnation of evil, Darth Vader. And that, more than anything, is what made TPM so hollow. While the action was good, the lack of good characters is disappointing. But AOTC has regained much of the sense of adventure that this film started off.
Lucas' grand vision illuminates the entire film, with inventive creatures and events. Several scenes that are my favorites are Obi Wan's conversation to Luke about the Clone Wars and Vader, Solo's disposal of Greedo, Obi Wan and Vader's last battle and the battle of Yavin. One of my all-time favorite films, STAR WARS is THE great adventure. Directed by Irvin Kershner, THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK moved away from the high-sprited antics of the first film and took a step towards the dark side. The Empire is preparing to seek revenge on the Rebel Alliance, C3P0 gets blasted to bits and Luke Skywalker finds out that Darth Vader is his dad! Even John William's score is much darker in tone than his previous efforts. But the film is an excellent adventure that many fans consider to be superior to the original. Mark Hamill returns as Luke, Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia and Harrison Ford as the sardonic Han Solo. And we are introduced to the wise Yoda, who trains Luke about the ways of a Jedi. The action ante is upped considerably, with exciting chases through asteroid feilds, battles between the imperial fighters and the AT-ATs and Luke's rescue mission. And the Bespin Duel, where the confrontational battle between Vader and Luke ends with one of the most shocking revelations in movie history (Even if it's somewhat un-surprising for future fans who watch all the completed films in sequence). RETURN OF THE JEDI isn't as good as the previous two, but still has it's moments of exciting action. Episode VI starts off where EMPIRE left off, with Luke and Leia rescuing Han Solo from the crime lord Jabba the Hutt. While the film is less exciting than it's counterparts, it does have some good action, including the rescue on the desert skiff, the speeder chase through the forest of Endor, the dark final battle between Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine and Luke and the destruction of the second Death Star. The lightsaber fights are some of the best in the Star Wars cannon and Princess Leia is hotter than ever! John William's score is even more exciting than ESB. The one thing that's somewhat grinding is the inclusion of the ewoks, but the rest is good-natured fun.
If I were to place the Star Wars films in order from best to not-as-good, they would go THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, A NEW HOPE, ATTACK OF THE CLONES, RETURN OF THE JEDI and THE PHANTOM MENACE. I hope George decides to do parts VII, VIII and IX, because they can bring back all the great characters that make these films so enjoyable.
This presentation is very impressive, with added scenes and improved SFX. We see more of Jabba the Hutt, there are some great additions including the amazing Bespin City and the added scenes at the end of JEDI. A classic trilogy, and a must-buy when it gets on DVD. I'm waiting...

Summary: Good Stuff
Review: I personaly love the Star Wars films. The never ones are a bit lame, but i must admit, i am obsessed. A Star Wars freak. I kinda grew up on them, seeing them over and over when i was little. No one can replace Harrison Ford as Han Solo, or Luke Skywalker, and Yoda is much quarkier in the older movies. Its basic Sci-Fi action that is irreplaceable. But George Lucas needs to make his newer ones more interesting!

Summary: Good, but the added and visual don't add anything...
Review: These movies are classic, however the digital enhancing and added scenes don't add much, I only own the vhs to have a remastered copy of the 3 films...What is really amazing is that George Lucas didn't censor his classic films as opposed to his buddy Stephen Speilberg, instead he just added more enhanced graphics and took scenes he left out and added them in so we can see things we've never seen before, I think the only reason I went to go see these movies was because they were in the movie theatre and not on my tiny television, the updated graphics didn't stun me as much as the sound and picture of the big screen, overall, if you like the movies a lot and can't wait for the DVDs which are never gonna be released!!! :-( buy this vhs set.
