Masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (17 December 2003)

All I can say is that I am thankful to have been alive at this point in time to experience one of the true masterpieces of cinema. LOTR is to this generation what Star Wars was to the previous generation. Return of the King is a perfect ending to a perfect trilogy, and will go down as one of the best ever. It is an empty feeling to know that this the end of the journey and there will not be a new chapter next December. But that emptiness is overcome with the sense of happiness you feel for the characters. It hard to ever imagine seeing another piece of film-making a king that could rival Peter Jackson's LOTR. A ***** out of ***** for the Return of the King. And a ***** out of ***** for the trilogy.
