Movie Reviews

New York Daily News - 10/10 by Ernest LeograndeAmong the ties with the past, the opening portion introduces a comic orgy that is deliberate parallel cantina scene in “Star Wars” and among the new thrills there is an airborne vehicle chase through a forest, projected at a speed to leave audiences dizzy.
Chicago Tribune - 10/10 by Gene SiskelBut with 'Jedi,' listen to the creaking, huge metal door that opens and leads the androids C-3PO and R2-D2 to the cave of Jabba the Hutt, where, at the beginning of the film, good-guy space pilot Han Solo is frozen in a carbonite mold like some kind of nouvelle cuisine side dish. It will remind old-time radio listeners of the creaking door of the 'Inner Sanctum' show, and it serves the same purpose. Both are doorways to adventure...And before this portion of the 'Star Wars' saga is history, let us take time to praise the principal performers.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger Ebert'Return of the Jedi' is fun, magnificent fun. The movie is a complete entertainment, a feast for the eyes and a delight for the fancy. It's a little amazing how Lucas and his associates keep topping themselves.
Bullz-Eye.com - 10/10 by Jason ZingaleAlong with some equally captivating special effects and a heavy dose of action, Return of the Jedi is still a solid combination of everything you love about the first two movies.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch - 10/10 by Harper BarnesThe characters and dialogue get lost somewhere between the bug-eyed monsters and the exploding spaceships, but it is all so much fun it probably really does not matter a whole lot.
The Australian - 10/10 by Evan WilliamsThere are all sorts of hints in the latest escapade (notionally directed by Richard Marquand) that we are meant to be taking it seriously.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Sheila BensonThe Jedi return to us at last, older, wiser and frankly irresistible. Of all its many qualities, Return of the Jedi is fully satisfying, it gives honest value to all the hopes of its believers. With this last of the central "Star Wars" cycle, there is the sense of the closing of a circle, of leaving behind real friends. It is accomplished with a weight and a new maturity that seem entirely fitting, yet the movie has lost none of its sense of fun; it bursts with new inventiveness. With Jedi, George Lucas may have pulled off the first triple crown of motion pictures.
Urban Cinefile - 9/10 by Urban Cinefile CriticsSlower, longer and less powerful than Episodes IV and V, Return of the Jedi closes this extraordinary trilogy more with a whimper than a bang,
Sci-Fi Movie Page - 9/10 by James O'EhleyThe magic is still there, the effects crisp and spectacular.
Baltimore Sun - 9/10 by Stephen HunterThe film reaches a density of emotion in its last 20 minutes that the cycle itself -- and few other movies -- can approach.
