Review of The Empire Strikes Back (1980) by James Berardinelli for ReelViews — 19 Aug 1995
The storyline is more interesting and ambitious, the characters -- little more than appealing types in the original -- are allowed to grow and develop, the special effects are more mature, and the tone is deliciously dark and downbeat.
