Way too long, boring and repetitious. I hope the editor didn't get payed too much. Besides, they tried to make it like a Star Wars spectacle too soon. Didn't work. And Elijah Wood is horrible. I probably would have enjoyed the battle scenes if I hadn't already seen a bunch in the first two movies. And if they could cut out some stuff from the book, then they could have cut out the Tree Beards or whatever. That was just stupid. The whole relationship between the evil king and his son, Sean Bean's brother was ridiculous. I don't think Peter Jackson filmed enough shots of the king eating the grapes. Well everyone hypes it up and I just don't think it was that great. Too many endings! Pick one.
