Here we have the final chapter in the first set of Star Wars movies. Although the second one (“Episode Five”) remains my favorite, this one’s not too bad. Some of the characters appear to have lost some dimensions (particularly Carrie Fisher’s role, which appears to have been reduced to a much more subordinate position), my favorite character dies early on, and the Ewoks are just too insufferable for words. But the effects are outstanding, and even the ones that didn’t work so well (like the singing muppets) in the original release have been replaced by slick new computerized sequences for the new edition. Worth seeing
