Jared's Review

Rating: 10/10 (27 December 2003)

This movie was a spectacular movie. Definitely, the hardest role to play had to either be Sam played by Sean Astin, or Frodo played by Elijah Wood. There is the most action in this movie than the other two. Aragorn played by Viggo Mortensen, who is starting in a whole new movie called Hidalgo, is an awesome actor but isn't in the movie a whole lot. The special affects are amazing, especially the dead people and the King of the dead played by Paul Norell. Also, when Legolas (Orlando Bloom) shoots down an elephant, it happens so fast. Arwen (Liv Tyler) has to make a decision between a mortal life or an elven life. There are some funny comments by Gimli (John Rhys-Davies) in the movie. But an absolutely great job by Sir Ian McKellen as Gandalf, he also makes many funny comments in the 3 hours 20 minutes of the movie. Merry played by Dominic Monaghan has a big surprise for the fans. Miranda Otto who plays Eowyn has a huge role in this movie. Billy Boyd taken to the safest place on middle-earth, Minis Tirith, makes a big mistake. I say that these three movies make up the best trilogy. But I'll leave you to do the work and see what happens if Arwen makes the big decision, or what happens with Merry and Pippin, or what Eowyn does. And lastly, will Frodo throw the one ring that rules them all into the fires of Mount Doom?
