Fan4/5
The Empire Strikes Back is one of those movies that still feels special even after all these years. The story is darker, the characters feel more real, and the action is really good without taking away from the story. I especially loved the ending because it leaves you wanting to know what happens next. Definitely a movie I could watch again.
