Movie Assessment: The Empire Strikes Back – Magnificent Genius
Second in what is likely the most watched trilogy of all time is “The Empire Strikes Back,” which picks up the story after “A New Hope,” left off. This stunning piece of filmmaking surpassed both the original in both popularity and critical acclaim. In this article we will explore why, and why you should own this breathtaking masterpiece.
The show begins a short time after the previous movie finished. Our heroes are someplace on this seemingly abandoned ice planet, in an effort to hide out from the empire, led by none other that Darth Vader, whose circumstances based on events of the preceding movie is now identified. We see him bowing down the Emperor himself, and appreciate he isn’t the top dog after all.
It doesn’t take long for the empire to uncover the rebels hideaway, and a combat for their getaway ensues. Only this time, they split up. To avoid apprehension by the empire, this is the only option. Han Solo, Princess Leia, and C3PO head for a station run by Han’s buddy, while Luke heads off to meet up with some delightful character, a character that will become one of the most recognized imaginary characters ever fashioned.
We follow Han and Leia through an asteroid area, and other adventures before they finally appear on Han’s associates outpost, only to find the empire, including Darth Vader, has arrived before them, and has enforced Han’s buddy into falling into a trap. It comes across as that the all powerful Darth Vader is in search of something.
Meanwhile, we see Luke land on some tropical forest planet out in the heart of nowhere. His vessel sinks into a swamp, and he feels he may be in the wrong place. Then he meets up with Yoda, the last alive Jedi Trainer. He puts Luke through a scrupulous training, both mind and physical, teaching him the ways of the force. Some of the most commanding, metaphysical truths of the universe are revealed during the exchanges between Luke And Yoda. We also find out that in order to turn into a true Jedi, Luke must face Vader. Something Yoda fears he is not quite equipped for.
Luke, through his increasing powers of the force, sense that his friends are in jeopardy, and leaves before his teaching is complete. We see Ben’s ghost become visible, and have a word with Yoda. They bring up that there is “one other” likely Jedi who may save the universe, but we don’t know who. Luke arrives at the station where his acquaintances are kept captive, and we learn that this was Darth Vader’s plan all along. To take Luke and bring to the emperor. We also learn one more staggering piece of information, but I decline to mess up this for anyone who has not seen this work of genius. This is a trilogy that you must be in possession of. I advocate you buy the box set if you can afford it. This is movie making at its most brilliant.
