The biggest and the best - The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King Reviews

I have to admit, i 'm pretty tired. i just got home from the midnight show of "Return of the King". this movie is the biggest movie i have ever seen. "Last Samurai" and "Master& Commander" are good epics, but none compare to "King". The trilogy fits together perfectly. it has all been about tension and release. so far, it has all been tension (breaking of the Fellowship, Helm's deep, Gollum's obsession, Frodo's fall into madness) and then...i won't ruin it...but for those of you who have read the books, you know what i mean by release. the great thing about "Lord of the Rings" is the ambition. filmed all at once, years of pre-production and post-production, a vision so complete that i'm not sure any other movie will satisfy me for a while. this movie has beautiful photography, amazing visuals, extremely suspenseful events, and more. this movie has everything a movie goer can want: action( a lot of it, too), convincing drama (Gollum is insanely convincing), and all of the resolution that anybody would ever want! "Return of the King" is the longest of the trilogy at around 3 1/2 hours and every minute of it is pure movie magic. SEE THIS MOVIE!!! you can't afford not to.
