Bit disappointed

Rating: 6/10 (20 April 2004)

After the first two films I expected more from this last episode. There are a lot of boring parts, then it becomes interesting for a while to finish boringly. The great battle wasn't that great at all, the fight with Shelob uninspiring, the fight against the Nazgul not that heroic, etc. I even fell asleep when I watched it the second time.
Perhaps it is also because I've read the third book again a month before watching it. There is just too much unfinished business and too much stuff that doesn't go right. Perhaps the extended DVD will be better. (I've already got the first two extended DVD's, those were pretty good)
