Good movie but it brings nothing new and the end takes toooo long...

Rating: 5/10 (11 January 2004)

The third movie brings nothing more than the second... It has more goofs than the second i won't enumerate them here. The end is so boring that when I went to the cinema to see it, all people stood up about 3 times in the last 20 minutes to go home... It also misses one important chapter when Saruman destroys the Shire... Some characters have no meaning in the movie (Faramir, Witch King)... Witch King has very big orientation problems trying to hit Eowyn with that big weapon rather than use some witchcraft to kill her... Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen) doesn't have the voice of a King when he tries to encourage the army to fight (see Braveheart (Mel Gibson) or Gladiator (Russel Crowe))...
It would have probably been a great movie without the first 2 parts, but this one brings nothing new or extraordinary except the Undead army which kills all orcs BAAH !
If you are interested in special effects then go watch the movie, if you are interested in how the story ends better read the book.
