Summary: Original Theatrical Version - Definitive
Comment: The Original Theatrical versions are in their original 2.35:1 Widescreen aspect, letterboxed within a 3x4 screen format - not anamorphic - which is clearly indicated on the packaging. You can view this "full-size" on your 16x9 TV by setting your DVD player's HDMI output to 3x4/pillar-box if necessary, and then setting your TV to "zoom" so that the screen is filled side to side with the picture. There will be slim black bars on the top and bottom, just as there are on anamorphic DVD's with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio.
Even with the zoom in effect, the picture is crystal clear and the color great. I'm using an upconvert DVD player with HDMI output (1080p), and a 50-inch plasma HD television. Some have said in reviews that the picture quality is poor, even "VHS quality", but that's totally false. I've read that the originals here were taken from the laser-disc masters done in the early 90's; well, they look great however they were sourced. The sound is Dolby 2.0 Stereo (as indicated on the package) and sounds excellent. I get some center-channel and sub-woofer action as well as the stereo music and sound-effects on my system.
If a blu-ray/HD version is ever issued, that will be great and an improvement; but this is the only way to get the original films on DVD at this time, and they look great, so this set is essential for fans who saw these movies in theatres when they were released between 1977 and 1983 and want to see them once again in their original glory.

Summary: One Of The Best In The Series
Comment: Up until the sixth and last episode of the Star Wars saga, which finally ended in 2005, I had always looked at this 1983 entry as my favorite film of the long-running series. The varied action scenes and really different characters (Jabba The Hut, furry woodland creatures, etc.) made this a particularly appealing movie.
None of the action ever focused too long in one spot, either. The last half hour exemplifies this the most as the scene switches every few minutes from the woods to the battle among space ships to the individual laser-duel between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader.
Another nice characteristic this film had that the two previous did not was the absence of in-fighting between two of the stars. Gone was the incessant bickering between Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford. Finally, everyone was on the same page! It was nice to see.
In the end, this was simply a wonderful adventure tale, more than anything else.

Summary: This is a totally crappy release...
Comment: I bought this series (episodes IV-VI) because I wanted the original Star Wars (not the remake) on DVD. George Lucas and his cohorts at 20th Century have delivered a completely bogus and mediocre (at best) release of the original. It reflects Lucas's contention that he didn't really make the movies the way he wanted to (then, why DID he make them?). Any other DVD of similar chronological date has at the very least had a 5.1 soundtrack - not these (despite the totally bogus and misleading representations on the DVD case).
All this does is showcase the wanton money-making greed of George Lucas and 20th Century Fox.
DO NOT BUY THIS!!!! It's CRAP and only feeds the Lucas money machine.

Summary: Weak acting
Comment: There is zero chemistry between Carrie Fischer and Harrison Ford, so their silly 'romance' strikes an off chord here. I hadn't seen this since its theatrical premiere, so I was struck by the relative lack of special effects and how primitive were the existing ones, especially the Jaba the Hut scenes where all the characters are obviously fake. Again, as in the previous episode, the human dialogue is the weakest part of the film. The 'plot' is a feel-good theme, and the grand finale is a bit of a tear-jerker. In 25 years, this has held up relatively well, but seems a bit shallow by today's standards.
