An Honest Review of 'Return of the King'

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: Don't see it, and you will make me proud. You could probably have more fun sitting in your pj's with some cocoa reading the book.
Review: Introduction
I was one of the lucky people to see the Lord of the Rings; The Return of the King today. Now, I will tell you honestly, I'm not a big fan of J.R. Tolkien and the Lord of the Rings. I was impressed, however, with the first film in...

Frodo, I am your father.

Date of Review:  Dec 18, 2003
The Bottom Line: Jackson's vulgar treatment of the 'Lord of the Rings' has come to a close and, as entertainment, is successful. I expected more, unfortunately, I also expected an 'Extended Edition.'
Review:
I admit to the title of my review being facetious. But, it goes to the core of what I do not like about director Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy; something that was highlighted in this, the third and final installment.

Peter Jackson's Return of the King - Tears and Triumph

Date of Review:  Dec 19, 2003
The Bottom Line: A stunning conclusion to Tolkien's fantastic epic adventure. My review can't even begin to capture how wonderful the film is.
Review: This final installment of the Lord of the Rings epic is simply stunning. Fans will not go away unmoved. Good triumphs over evil, and audiences around the world will cheer.

If you haven't seen the first two movies, the Fellowship of the...

This film earned Best Picture (along with its visual effects Oscars)

Date of Review:  Dec 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: The only easy day was yesterday, as Frodo and Sam find out. Hoo yah!
Review: How good is "The Return of the King"? Good enough that this generation might not be able to put it into perspective. The last time all human civilization turned on the outcome of a single battle, rather than the gradual permeation of Western values,...

This is How You Bitch, Complain, and Piss Off Fans of Tolkien

Date of Review:  Dec 29, 2003
The Bottom Line: I wrote this because I didn't feel there was enough animosity in the comments section of my review for Two Towers.
Review: Eh yo, check it, check it... This is how I begin a review I know I m going to have fun writing. But, if you haven t seen LotR: The Return of the King before, you should probably skip this as it may contain what people would call spoilers and...

Crying Hobbits and the Ensuing Manlove

Date of Review:  Jan 5, 2004
The Bottom Line: Go see it for the completist aspect if nothing else. Seriously, I enjoyed it, but nowhere near as much as its predecessors.
Review: I just don't know. Maybe it's because I don't really care for the dominance of Western Civilization over the heathens that supposedly plague the rest of the world. It could be that I have a life that exists primarily within the parameters of...

Return of the King One Film to Rule them All

Date of Review:  Jan 6, 2004
The Bottom Line: This is the masterpiece an adaptation of the greatest book ever written was meant to be. Astonishing.
Review: Opening Remarks

All good things must come to an end. So it is with Peter Jackson's exhilarating adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, and it is indeed a bittersweet parting. While we still have the extended edition to...

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

Date of Review:  Jan 12, 2004
The Bottom Line: Go see Return of the King. It has everything you would ask for in a movie, action, romance, drama...you'll love it.
Review: Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings was based the famous trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkien. The first part was The Fellowship of the Ring and the second was The Two Towers. Both were a tremendous hit in theatres. The Return of The King, being the third...

LOTR: The Return of the King: wow, I'm just gonna say, wow.

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you seen the first two, I won't need to convince you to see this one. Worth every penny too.
Review: It's a known fact that most sequels stink. Nine times out of ten, a follow-up will lack something of a punch, or they can't grab that energy that was in the first time outing of a story or characters.

With a great deal of relief, I can...

J.R.R. Tolkien READ AS A CHILD #Loving it as an adult

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2004
Review: I read the HOBBIT back in 1984 in Highschool and I loved the book. Now that I'm an adult, I truly thank New Line Cinema for taking a chance on a piece of history.

Best Picture of the Year (GOLDEN GLOBE)
