An epic saga. A magnificent feat. Unprecedented.

Rating: 10/10 (17 December 2003)

Peter Jackson's gut-wrenching, bone shattering conclusion to this massive three-part epic has it all.
It succeeds everywhere, and stands out as the best of the three movies. Now familiar characters grow and mature. The plot quickens, and then races to its thrilling conclusion.
What else can be said? Go see this movie, then take a deep breath and see it again.
