Film Review

Rating: 9/10 (14 December 2014)

In Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) is the last movie of the lord of the rings trilogy. (Spoiler) In this movie Frodo(Elijah Wood) and Sam(Sean Astin) are close to Mount Doom where they are playing to throw the One Ring on the Fire. On the other hand Gandalf(Ian Mckellen) and Aragon(Viggo Mortensen) are leading the World of Men Army which is going to fight against Sauron's army. Frodo (Elijah Wood) and Sam(Sean Astin) have been away for a long time and the rest of the fellowship doesn't have any news or know if anything has happened to them. Smeagol (Andy Serkis) is leading Frodo (Elijah Wood) to Mount Doom.
(Spoiler) Multiple plots occur during this movie. One of the most important ones is that World of Men army is not as powerful as the orb army. Even if they added the young men to the army they would still not be a match for the orb army. Elmord(Hugo Weaving) has the sword put together and gives it to Aragon (Viggo Mortensen) to take back his place as king. Also the Eye of Sauron is able to get into Pippin's (Billy Boyd) thoughts and see what the plans of the fellowship were.
There is no other film like the Lord of the Rings but if any other can come closer to it, it would be The Matrix because they were also on a war to free humanity. Lighting was a very important technique use during the film. It allows the characters to become more realistic, by having the view focus on the amazing backgrounds or clothing rather than facial expressions. Since there were hobbits and humans together in some scenes the lighting helped disguise the computer generated characters and make the screen very realistic.
The angles were also very important, they help the cameras make some characters smaller than the others in other to have them look like hobbits. Most of the scenes for the movie where computer generated in order to make them realistic to the viewer they had to utilize the correct angle. Gondor and Minas Morgul where astonishing. At the end the movies Theme was that One Ring to Rule them All created with a different purpose than what it was intended and Frodo(Elijah Wood) got drag into the journey to destroy it. They accomplish their goal and it was a movie with a extremely well done ending.
