Loved The Trilogy, but this is the weakest entry.

Rating: Null/10 (2 January 2004)

I will have this on DVD box set when they bring all 3 out at once in one package, but I have to say that "Return of the King" will get my least attention. It doesn't have the spark as Fellowship and Towers did for me. The action scenes are magnificent and the overall movie was fine, just seemed to have the feeling of "been there, done that" That's why Two Towers was so great, it was like a totally different movie from Fellowship, while "Return of the King" is the "Return of the Jedi" tons of action and not much story. i guess my expectations perhaps were a little too high, but the ending does satisfy your needs for a conclusion as there is probably too many endings in Return of the King. Maybe they'll make the "Directors Cut" more enjoyable by adding some scenes with more story. Lets hope.
