Why is this movie rated that high?

Rating: 4/10 (9 June 2005)

When it comes to TLOTR:The Return of the King, I personally think that this is not such a fabulous movie. First of all I would like to comment on the acting, many of the actors in the movie is to me very dorky. Orlando Bloom seems to only got one face that he uses throughout the whole movie,this is a very lousy performance. And Viggo Mortensen only seems good because many of his scenes are along with Bloom. That I mean is that, next to Orlando Bloom even Dolph Lundgren would appear to be a Oscar candidate. Of course many of the battle scenes are great, and very entertaining to watch, but this is not enough to make this a classic movie, but of course, it will become one anyway. And much of the comedy in the movie, specially the scenes with Gimli and Legolas, are totally unnecessary. This is not successful, and one of the things that could have been changed or even left out of the movie.
