highly recommended

The high-energy, special-effects-laden conclusion to George Lucas's ambitious Star Wars trilogy delivers the final confrontation between Luke Skywalker (a more confident and mature Mark Hamill) and his nemesis-father, Darth Vader (David Prowse, voice of James Earl Jones), as the rebel alliance makes its last stand against the evil Empire. The film opens with an impressive set piece in the cave of the monstrous Jabba the Hut, who holds both Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) for his decadent pleasure until Skywalker comes to the rescue. The final battle pits an enormous armada of rebel ships against the rebuilt Death Star, the planet-killing weapon of the first film, while guerrilla forces battle Empire soldiers on the planet below with the help of a cuddly army of pint-sized, teddy-bear-like creatures known as Ewoks (Lucas's one concession to merchandising) and Skywalker confronts Vader and the emperor on the Deathstar. Director Richard Marquand invests the tale with plenty of humor and a vigorous sense of adventure without losing the seriousness of Skywalker's mission. The special edition adds, among other effects, more creatures and a bouncy song-and-dance number to the Jabba the Hut scenes, and an extended celebration that literally encompasses the galaxy at the film's jubilant conclusion. --Sean Axmaker

Referring to the Soundtrack

The reviews I've seen for this soundtrack are not even mentioning the CD that they are supposed to be reviewing, instead bitching about the movie itself.

The special edition of the Return of the Jedi has little change in the score. Most probably is improved sound quality. In Jedi, a new peice is found, Victory Celebration. This song replaces the awful 'Ewok Celebration' aka 'Yub Nub'. Victory Celebration sounds much more like an ending to one of the greatest movie (trilogy) ever made. It is still ethnic sounding, but sounds less like an Ewok festival and more like the closing music to Star Wars.

Episode VI

A great movie. I would highly reccommend this Star Wars.
(*Spoilers*)
First, they rescue Han from Jabba which takes up about fifteen or twenty minutes. Then, Leia is captured. Luke Skywalker, now a Jedi, comes to rescue her, but Jabba tries to feed him to the Rancor monster. Luke defeats the Rancor, but Jabba boards his Sail Barge and attempts to feed Luke, Han, and Chewbacca to the sarlaac monster. Lando Calrissian, in disguise, reveals him self and starts chopping down guards. R2-D2 shoots Luke his lightsaber. Boba Fett, seeing this, jumps to the desert skiff and attacks, but Han knocks him into the sarlaac. Unknown to viewers, but Boba actually does not die.
While all this is happening, Leia chokes Jabba with a chain. The group manages to escape and blow up the sail barge. But another thing unknown to viewers, Bib Fortuna, Jabba's aide, does not die. Well, Luke goes to Dagobah to finish his training with Yoda. Yoda dies of old age (900) but tells Luke that Leia is his sister. Luke meets the Rebels on the forest moon of Endor where Leia is lost and then found and then they meet the Ewoks. The Imperials attack and the Ewoks and Rebels fight back. They blow up the protective energy field around the Death Star II. Then a massive space battle erupts. Inside the Death Star II, Luke duels with Vader. The Emperor begins using Force lighting on the young Jedi, but Vader turns good again and kills the Emperor. Luke escapes and the Death Star II is blown up.
(*SPOILERS END HERE*)
I don't have anything else to say except that this is a great movie again.

THE BEST STAR WARS MOVIE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This movie is a great conclusion to a great saga. I have seen all of the Star Wars movies, from the Phantom Menace to Attack Of The Clones to Revenge Of The Sith to A New Hope to The Empire Strikes Back, and now this golden piece of treasure, which is my favorite Star Wars movie ever. The fight scenes are just great, there are a lot more cool new and old characters, Darth Vader is better than ever, I love the funny quotes and interesting moments, and the ending is both sweet and happy. The others were great, but this is the very best. Do not wait another moment. See this movie. It is well worth any money you spend on it. Period. End of discussion. Done.

I've owned it for years, and still listen to it often

This soundtrack has everything on it a Star Wars fan could love. Good sound quality, and every song on it is enough to enable true fans to replay the entire movie in their heads.

Two words of caution:

First, it has the newer Ewok celebration song that was dubbed over the original when the film was redone by Lucas.

Second, at all costs, avoid track 14 from Disc One, "Jedi Rocks." This is an unbearably stupid song that somehow got included in this album rather than on the Holiday Special soundtrack.
