Rated PG for sci-fi action violence.

Return of the Jedi ends the Star Wars saga. It takes place one year after The Empire Strikes Back.
Our heroes are in turmoil: Han has been encased in carbonite by Vader and taken to Jabba the Hutt by a bounty hunter named Boba Fett (Jeremy Bulloch). Luke (now more skilled in the Jedi arts) has a plan that may rescue Han and what follows is a series of great action and fun.
Return of the Jedi has always been my favorite of the classic trilogy, partly because of the big Ewok/Stormtrooper battle at the end and also because the whole story unfolds and all the mysteries are tied up. I do find the part where Luke visits Yoda particularly boring, but don't let that defer you from seeing this great movie.
I strongly recommend that you see Return of the Jedi, a rousing conclusion to the great Star Wars saga!
