Slightly more intense than "A New Hope".
My rating: PG for sci-fi violence.

The epic story continues.
Luke cuts off a monster's army and blood is everywhere. One of the all time sequels in cinema history.

The Empire Strikes Back is a classic for all to see
An excellent sequel filled with lots of action. This movie contains some kissing and some blood so watch out.

This is a very good sequel. The star wars series is cool execpt for the prequels. I like this movie. Darth Vader is a butt-head villian in this movie. I like it. I reccomeded it.

COMMON SENSE MEDIA STRIKES BADK AGAIN WITH A TOO STRICT REVIEW
One of the best Star Wars movies, but maybe your kids under age 11 wouldnt like it, MOST just like the prequels because they dont like 1980's films their age(I SAID MOST SO I WOULDNT BE PREJUDIST). Has fairly mild violence and a mild scene with Han and Leia kissing, nothing we havent seen in a rated G movie. Is dark and some little kids might be afraid of its scary parts, but not as bad as Episode 3. Overall, best movie in the series(but its tied with Attack of the Clones!)

More violent than first but better
This is a great movie and it is pretty violent. It is better than the first one and kids will probably enjoy it more. The only violent parts are when there is an implied torture scene where Han gets burned

My favorite movie of all time.
Simply the best movie ever made in my opinion. A great visual effects extravaganza, a great character driven drama and it has the greatest movie twist of all time. How could anyone not love it? Much like the first movie, this should be required viewing for everyone. If you don't let your kids watch it, you're a bad parent.

Genius Sci-Fi
Really a great story. George Lucas is genius. A little violent for kids 3 and under, but really just a genius movie. George Lucas is always amazing. Iffy for 4+.

A sci-fi classic...
A CLASSIC. If you are a sci-fi fan this is your dream. Unlike most FX enriched movies, this one had depth and meaning. You can't miss it, by far the best in the series...
