It is very interesting that you say this. I actually just finished writing a review for Ep 5 on this site (see review here) and came to the same conclusion pretty much as you, with one caveat. Episode 4 is its equal in the sense that Ep 4 is the original story arc; however, in terms of actual plot and character development, Ep 5 is its superior. I say this because Han and Leia’s relationship is just developed so well in Ep 5 – and in general the acting is exceptional. In addition, Darth Vader is more ominous and threatening in Ep 5 which was an improvement compared to Ep 4. Luke’s development as a Jedi in training and the introduction of such an unassuming character as Yoda was also very brilliant.
There are also some very iconic and significant scenes that show how well the film was really written including the unique idea of freezing Han Solo in carbonite as a testing method to capture Luke, and of course the massive reveal and plot twist that Darth Vader is in fact Luke’s father. The balance of comedy and intense/serious scenes also is very well done, and the list goes on and on.

In the original trilogy, 5 is definitely the film I watch the most often, but I can’t say that I think it is definitively hands-down the best. All 3 films in the OT are great- I love the first one as it sets the stage. Ep 5 is great because it shows how bad and dangerous the Empire is, and Ep 6 is a nice conclusion with even some redemptive qualities.

Thanks for your comments guys and seem heartfelt however I always found that vaders destructive vengeance that he sought out obi wan with was formidable in episode 4 it is actually a very good film but not in the realm of empire due to script recpnstructs; plot dynamics, increaingly overwhelming visuals its just a masterpiece through and through i think but i will think through what you said to try and come up with something , youve done great, please your work in new hope and return of the jedi were pleasing works and ill revisit both of them again many times im the future.

No just basically tried to comment I also liked Star wars. 4 and return of the jedi they had quality but script, acting, kind of the ambience was off they were considerably different but off beat and enjoyed nonetheless.

If we’re talking about only the Skywalker Saga films, then I completely agree with the statement that The Empire Strikes Back is the best, though A New Hope holds a special place among them. Revenge of the Sith is also an amazing film with the exceptional duels and Anakin’s heartbreaking fall to the dark side.
If we are talking about all the Star Wars films, then in my opinion Rogue One is the best as the story is brilliant and the visuals are stunning. Though slightly disappointed that we don’t get more of Jyn, we do get more Cassian and hopefully K2-SO in Andor.- This reply was modified 5 months, 3 weeks ago by Salina.
