Destined to be a classic

Rating: 10/10 (18 December 2003)

There are certain films in cinematic history which dare not be re-made. "The Wizard of Oz", "Raisin in the Sun", "All about Eve", "Miracle on 34th Street"........Lord of the Rings' "The Return of the King" WILL BE AMONG THEM. It can only be described as a lengthy collaboration of the best: acting, action, special effects, cinematography and character development. If tears do not continually well in your eyes during the final hour of this film...one may argue..."humanity is damned ". Furthermore, if this film is not honored with more than nominations come this Spring...the Oscars are too.
