Star Wars: Return of the Jedi | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

Given how well Return of the Jedi was put together from a technical perspective, and how entertaining the whole thing ends up being, it's difficult not to enjoy the film on very basic levels, but it stands as the original trilogy's odd man out.

The Return Of The Jedi offers enough moments that is not only a fitting entry into the franchise but what was thought of at the time as a fitting conclusion to it as well.

Return of the Jedi is easy to nitpick, but its best qualities are simply that it's got the aura of an original trilogy film.

...the decline that began in The Empire Strikes Back has becomes a malaise by now, with continuity stretches making nonsense of the narrative...

It's well constructed, tonally in spirit, and hugely enjoyable, but the Force simply isn't as strong in this one.
