Master Piece

Rating: Null/10 (30 December 2003)

Peter Jackson is a genius - the wrapping up of the series is absolutely superb. It's hard to describe what I felt when the credits finally started rolling, I guess it could be awe, surprise, or simply enjoyment. The truth is I wasn't expecting that - I knew it would be good, I just didn't know it would be that good.
Certainly the most dramatic of the three installments - you'll cry, even without shedding tears, it's absolutely painful and heart-wrenching but there is a reward - trust me. The performances are outstanding, the landscapes are even more breathtaking than before and the music is priceless.
I only feel sad that we'll have to wait a year to get the real deal, without cuts.
If you haven't watched it yet - go - you won't regret it.
