Best of the trilogy

Rating: 9/10 (31 July 2013)

Now that the initial shock and marketing campaign has passed, we can take our time to watch the movie as it really is. The storytelling in this movie is exceptional. Although a serious J.R.R.T. fan would say that the story is not 100% accurate, it's my humble opinion that the changes made, for the movie's sake, are totally acceptable. Especially in the extended version, that shows a lot of little details that contribute a gigantic amount of comprehension to the story. I'd say it's the best of the trilogy, and one of the strongest points for that consideration, is that the amount of action scenes is remarkably balanced with the rest of the movie. Size effects and special effects are almost up to date 10 years later. Overall, an outstanding movie.
