Great movie, a fitting ending to a brilliant trilogy

Rating: 10/10 (4 January 2004)

This movie is fantastic, while it differs from the book slightly which is disappointing to Tolkien purists, the movie delivers on every aspect expected with brilliant directing from Peter Jackson and excellent acting from the entire cast and the extraordinary creation and animation of Gollum. Credit must go to the WETA team who made this movie so realistic and detailed. Some people may say the ending tends to drag on a while, but it raps up everything very well. This is a brilliant stand-alone movie, as well as a truly great ending to a magnificent trilogy.
