The perfect end to a perfect trilogy.

Rating: 10/10 (18 December 2013)

Ah, The Return of the King. A true masterpiece by Peter Jackson. These films have not only inspired me as a young director, but as a person. The development of the characters was beyond anything I've seen in other films, particularly the Grey Havens scene at the end of the film.
The scene just tears me apart, to see these characters depart. The emotion of the hobbits really got me because you see just how much each of them went through, and the effect it had on them. The music did the scene justice and amplified the emotion to an even greater effect. The scene was simple, yet empowering. Gandalf always has the greatest quotes and to hear his last quote just had me grasping for air. It was an amazing conclusion to the films and Jackson definitely did the films justice with that.
