Absolutely Phenomenal!

Rating: 10/10 (22 February 2004)

This is the best ending to the best trilogy ever!!! The whole movie is a piece of cinematic greatness. The battle scenes are wonderful and the adventure is genuine. The only problem this movie has is the very ending. I personally believe there is too much closure. I know Peter Jackson is trying to be more faithful to the books, but it is too much. We have already been sitting in the theater for 3.5 hours, we don't need another 15 minutes of closure. I think after Aragorn is crowned king and they all bow to the hobbits the movie should end. Even with the endings, this is the BEST movie of all time. I know I will be crushed if it does not win best picture at the Oscars, it totally deserves it over Lost in Translation.
