The ending to my favorite trilogy. I love everything about these movies: the acting, setting, costumes, music, the drama, the epicness, everything. It's the Star Wars of this generation, setting new standards and creating new fans. I guess some people think it's hip not to like them, but every movie-fan who hasn't seen it out of principle should at least give it a try and start watching Fellowship of the Ring. Maybe you really won't like it of course, but chances are you'll end up watching all the way through Return of the King and wonder why didn't do it sooner.

The last movie of a masterpiece. Everything is extraordinary, the music, the acting, the costumes, the story, the battles... The epilogue is a little bit long but who cares ? You don't want something like this to ever end and every little moment spent with the characters is more than welcome.

For as little as this film has to work with, plot wise, there's really no excuse for how long it clings to the screen. Really, in the grand scheme of things, what does it accomplish? A big battle scene to preserve the sacred city of Gondor, a recruitment drive in the land of the dead to facilita More

[8.6/10] The power of friendship is a cliché. Every other movie has their hero overcoming adversity, and probably the bad guy, through the bonds they’ve forged with their crew of allies and confidantes. It’s a good message; it just becomes tiresome after a while. But *The Lord of the Rings: The More

An outstanding end to the trilogy.

I expected a lot from 'The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King' so I am delighted to see it produce on so many levels. I, funnily enough, wouldn't actually say it's necessarily the most perfect execution - what with the plot coincidences and extre More

A fitting end to a classic trilogy.
Frodo, Samwise, and Gollum journey through a Hell on what is called "Middle Earth", while Gandalf, Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas go to war. King Theoden must decide whether to help those who would not help him. Merry wants to war, but is too small. Pippin finds him More
