Empire Strikes Back is widely recognised as the best Star Wars movie of all time for a reason.
A New Hope might have introduced fans to the cinematic world of Star Wars but Episode VI built on that universe and took the viewer far, far further.
The sequel transported us from the frozen landscapes of Hoth to the swamp planet of Dagobah, introduced legendary characters like Lando Calrissian and Yoda and featured the most iconic moments in the series — from Darth Vader’s ‘father’ reveal to the unforgettable AT-AT Walker battle and Han Solo’s burgeoning romance with Princess Leia.
It’s a darker, more urgent piece of filmmaking than A New Hope that still managed to retain as much wonder and joy as the first movie. As well as featuring great performances from the leading players, the Empire Strikes Back’s incredible design showcases George Lucas’s talents for cinematic world-building at its absolute best too.
It’s a stone-cold classic and arguably the greatest sci-fi movie ever made.
