The best of the trilogy, a great movie, if only it weren't LOTR...

Rating: Null/10 (21 December 2003)

After being tortured with two towers, I actually liked Fellowship a little, I went to see ROTK just to finish what I started. As always, visuals were impressive, though cgi was cartoony in some places. Acting was best I've seen in the trilogy, with Viggo Mortenson being a particular standout. Liv Tyler was hideously garish as usual. My biggest gripe still stands: Peter Jackson and/or the other filmmakers had no respect or consideration for the work of possibly the greatest literary genius of the modern age. That said, I'm glad this is over, I was literally talking out loud to the movie screen by the middle of the film, telling Peter Jackson off. Peter Jackson, you should be ashamed of yourself. DO NOT DARE TO CALL YOURSELF A FAN!
