In the entire Star Wars series, 1980's "Star Wars 2: The Empire Strikes Back" is generally regarded as the best work. This dark and thought-provoking film has a thankless mission to build a bridge of communication between the popular 1977 original and the later two-hour commercial film "Star Wars 3: Return of the Jedi." But it accomplished this mission very well.
The film is superior to the first "Star Wars" in many aspects. The film is more exciting, more exquisite, and more detail-oriented. At the same time, it is also the deepest, darkest, most mature and most thoughtful movie in the Star Wars series. In addition, the characterization of all the main characters in the film is also fuller and more convincing. Harris Ford also contributed the most wonderful performance. The romantic passage between him and Princess Leia is also included in film history.
