So, "The Empire Strikes Back" is a sequel to the previous part. After the release of the first episode, the budget, the fans appeared, and, accordingly, the quality improved!
The fifth episode is the darkest and even the best in the original trilogy (in my personal opinion), and for many in the entire franchise.
Here we will hear the famous Imperial March for the first time, learn all the greatness of the Empire under the leadership of Vader, as well as the formation of Luke as a Jedi.
New characters have added color to the franchise, some have already become iconic and famous among many (the same Boba Fett).
This fascinating story will feature plot twists (for sure many people understood what I was talking about) and a very addictive atmosphere of horror.
As a result, this is what the fans needed - a successful sequel. And, of course, you need to look at it, it's a classic after all.

Darker and better than "New hope"
One of the best films ever made.
Luke Skywalker goes in search of Jedi Master Yoda, to begin his Jedi training, meanwhile his friends and fellow band of rebels are pursued by The Empire's forces.
How on Earth was it possible to match, if not surpass Episode IV, it seems unfathomable, well that's exactly what they did with this remarkable movie, and whilst I personally rank the films on par with one another, I get why some favour this one. For me, the first came out of nowhere, whereas for this second one, expectations would have been incredibly high.
A superb storyline, breathtaking visuals, first class acting, and Yoda, what more could anyone possibly want or need from a movie, it's a bold claim, but I would genuinely say this is one of the greatest films of all time.
The sets are unbelievable, you can really tell that for those involved this was definitely a labour of love, everything was precise and on point.
It's worth a 10/10 for Yoda alone, I adore his and Luke's scenes together. The wonderful voice of Frank Oz adds a great deal, it really does help to make Yoda such an amazing, funny, smart and curious character.
Let's be honest, films don't get much better than this, it really is a masterpiece.
10/10.
