Endings

Rating: Null/10 (31 December 2003)

You know, if the movie didn't keep fading to black near the end, you wouldn't have thought the film was over. Jackson did this for effect, but it may have backfired. If he has just cut from ending to ending, instead of fading out, the audience may have been less restive. Besides, those who read the book knew how the thing was really going to end anyway.
