Great film.... though brought down by a muffled ending.

Rating: 8/10 (25 December 2003)

But WHAT happened with the endings? Could they have made this any longer? I knew something was wrong when the good guys win and there is still 30 minutes left in the movie. Please - leave some out for our imagination, or as an incentive for those who haven't read the books to go back to JRRT's source. However, a great film all around and pretty true to the classic books.
