Brilliant! Epic! Astounding! A rollercoaster of emotions! And yes… I liked it a lot! I definitely have nothing bad to say about this incredible movie!
What a great film! Kimberly and I hit the 3:10PM showing of ROTK. Luckily we found two great seats right next to each other even though the show was sold out and we got in 10 minutes before the movie started. Thank goodness I bought our tickets online at Fandango.com the night before.
I can’t say enough good things about the movie other than I would definitely pay full-price to see this movie (even though the viewing we saw was a “matinee”), and it’s one of the few movies I would consider seeing more than once in the theater. And if you know me and how cheap I am when it comes to the movies, you’d know that this is high praise indeed. The sets, the cinematography, the acting… everything was impeccable. And the few things I noticed that I felt were a little odd and/or out of place are so miniscule in comparison to the whole of the movie that even mentioning them seems trite.
Now that I’ve seen the entire trilogy on film I must say that the entire Lord of the Rings franchise is my favorite movie of all time, beating out the long-time champion “Boogie Nights“, and I really, really like Boogie Nights! Now I need to see if I can find a way to see Return of the King at the theater again.
