Incredible & visually stunning

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2003)

I just came back from a special viewing of The trilogy (1st, 2nd & special premiere of the 3rd movie) in Rotterdam and it was incredible. I sat in awe for 3 hours and 20 minutes and my jaw literally dropped when the big battle started. Never could I have imagined that someone could produce a battle of this magnitude on the silver screen. The big orcs (or whatever they were), the oliphaunts, but especially the nazgul with their terrible screaming were awesome.
But the most important thing is that Peter Jackson put the story about friendship and unselfish sacrifice perfectly on celluloid (with many, many thanks to the script-writers). What a movie!!!! Thank you Peter!!!
