A fitting end to a perfect trilogy

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2003)

The best way to sum up the impact and quality of this movie? It was everything that the Matrix trilogy wanted to be and couldn't. In deed, this trilogy will likely eclipse the original Star Wars films as the greatest film trilogy of all time. It strikes me as one that will be timeless, appealing to generations of film lovers.
TRotK is a masterwork in every sense, bringing the series to a triumphant, breathtaking conclusion. It continues the pace of growing ever larger, while simultaneously becoming more intimate in terms of character growth. It is, in short, the perfect visual realization of JRR Tolkien's vision.
Congratulations to the new king of moviedom, Peter Jackson, and the wonderful actors that breathed life into the biggest cinema gamble of all time.
