(1 - 19) of 19 OFCS Rating: 100% Fresh Page   1   5/5 "I've always found Empire to be the Hamlet of science fiction, basically because nothing good happens to the hero in the entire story."   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null 10/10 "The sequel that rose above the high standards set by its glorious predecessor."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Dragan Antulov "The Empire Strikes Back is a total delight."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 4/4 "A superior motion picture!"   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 4/4 "may always be the middle child of the Star Wars Trilogy, but it will always remain the stronges"   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 4/4 "The film spends more time on its characters and unlike the previous film they aren't as busy with all kinds of swashbuckling adventures."   Sci-Fi Movie Page   James O'Ehley "Sophisticated!"   Screen It!   Jim Judy 9/10 "Great follow-up to the original tale of a galaxy far, far away, this film has plenty of action, one-liners, special-effects, good vs evil rivalries and a pleasantly dark ending."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 10/10 "...the deepest, darkest, most mature, and most thoughtful entry in the series."   DVDTown.com   John J. Puccio 4/4 "It's the best film of the series, and one of the greatest sci-fi flicks ever made."   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest 9/10 "El Episodio V es el más oscuro de la saga de Star Wars, pero también, el más seductor."   Cinenganos   Luis Martinez "I think I can recite most of the dialogue from The Empire Strikes Back -- I mean, even R2's clicks and beeps. Isn't that sad?"   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 4/4 "Sci-fi cinema at its best."   Mr. Brown's Movies   Michael Dequina 5/5 "Each section of the film has a stand-out sequence that inspires hyperbole like 'best ever.'"   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves 4/4 "To see The Empire Strikes Back again on the big screen is a real treat and it brings to mind that cliché they don't make 'em like this anymore."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten 10/10 "Have you heard of this one? Sequel to Star Wars?"   eFilmCritic.com   Scott Weinberg 4/4 "The best Star Wars movie, ever!"   sbs.is   Stefan Birgir Stefansson "Despite ... an unresolved storyline that paves the way for its dismal sequel, Empire remains in many ways the best (indeed the last good) Star Wars film."   ESplatter   Steve Biodrowski A+ "The backbone of the Star Wars saga… takes the story and themes of the first film into deeper waters."   Decent Films Guide   Steven D.
